项目摘要

Radiopharmaceutical therapy (RPT) is an alternative cancer treatment to chemotherapy that has worked well in patients with lymphoma, late-stage, metastatic prostate cancer, and neuroendocrine tumors. A unique characteristic of RPT is that it is possible to calculate how much radiation energy is deposited in tumors and normal tissues within an individual patient (“dosimetry”) by imaging the radiation emitted by the RPT agent within the body. We know that patient-specific prescriptions based on absorbed dose lead to better patient outcomes. Our active Phase 2 SBIR grant aims to provide seamless integration and automation of RPT dosimetry in clinical practices that are currently ill-equipped in terms of expertise and resources to perform advanced dosimetry for RPT. To address this need we are integrating our dosimetry algorithm into an automated treatment planning solution, TorchTM, by adding additional features such as image registration, contour propagation, and pharmacokinetic modeling. However, we have identified that a lack of region of interest (ROI) segmentation is an important feature gap in the software. To address this need, Vox is requesting supplemental funding to achieve the following aims: (1) Develop free-hand and threshold-based segmentation tools to create and edit binary label volumes for normal organs and tumors in Torch. (2) Validate free-hand and threshold-based segmentation tools to create and edit binary label volumes for normal organs and tumors in Torch. Adding segmentation tools to Torch will help Vox achieve the overall goal of the Phase II SBIR award of making RPT treatment planning faster and more accurate.

放射性药物治疗 (RPT) 是一种替代化疗的癌症治疗方法，对淋巴瘤、晚期、转移性前列腺癌和 RPT 的一个独特特征是可以计算有多少。辐射能量沉积在个体患者体内的肿瘤和正常组织中（“剂量测定”）通过对 RPT 剂在体内发出的辐射进行成像我们知道。基于吸收剂量的患者特定处方可带来更好的患者治疗结果。第 2 阶段 SBIR 拨款旨在提供 RPT 剂量测定的无缝集成和自动化目前在专业知识和资源方面缺乏执行能力的临床实践 RPT 的先进剂量测定为了满足这一需求，我们正在集成我们的剂量测定算法。通过添加附加功能，例如然而，我们有图像配准、轮廓传播和药代动力学建模。发现缺乏感兴趣区域（ROI）分割是该领域的一个重要特征差距为了满足这一需求，Vox 正在请求补充资金以实现以下目标：目标：（1）开发徒手和基于阈值的分割工具来创建和编辑二进制文件在 Torch 中标记正常器官和肿瘤的体积 (2) 徒手验证和基于阈值的验证。用于在 Torch 中创建和编辑正常器官和肿瘤的二进制标签卷的分割工具。为 Torch 添加分段工具将有助于 Vox 实现第二阶段 SBIR 的总体目标使 RPT 治疗计划更快、更准确而获奖。
