Provided herein are radiopharmaceutical compositions and uses thereof. The radiopharmaceutical compositions can comprise one or more stabilizing agents, an aqueous vehicle, and a conjugate that comprises a targeting ligand and a radionuclide bound to a metal chelator. The targeting ligand can be a small molecule compound or a peptide such as a monocyclic peptide. The targeting ligand can be configured to bind with a tumor target. The stabilizing agent can comprise a radiolysis stabilizer, a free metal chelator, and/or a pH stabilizer. Further provided herein are methods of preparing the radiopharmaceutical compositions and methods of treating cancer by administering the described radiopharmaceutical compositions.

The current invention relates to a cell composition comprising isolated mesenchymal stem cells, wherein said MSCs are radiolabeled with technetium-99m, wherein said radiolabel is essentially free of hexamethylpropylene amine oxime, and wherein said radiolabeled MSCs have a post-labeling cell viability of at least 55%. The invention also relates to the use of said cell composition for biodistribution, diagnostics and cell-based therapies. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for preparing radiolabeled mesenchymal stem cells.

Disclosed herein are nanoparticle immunoconjugates useful for therapeutics and/or diagnostics. The immunoconjugates have diameter (e.g., average diameter) no greater than 20 nanometers (e.g., as measured by dynamic light scattering (DLS) in aqueous solution, e.g., saline solution). In certain embodiments, the conjugates are silica-based nanoparticles with single chain antibody fragments attached thereto.

An anti-tumoral compound for the localized treatment of neoplastic pathologies of malignant kind that cannot be surgically removed or with a high risk of local recurrence, includes: a bicomponent injectable biologic glue; an antineoplastic substance; and an epinephrine-based solution. The compound may be used as an independent therapeutic treatment, as it allows to treat tumoral masses that are not surgically removable, or as a therapeutic treatment complementary to surgical removal or to known ablative techniques (laser, radiofrequency, microwaves, etc.) for a maximization of the efficiency of therapies reducing the risk of neoplastic relapses in the original surgical site. A process for the production of the antitumor compound is also described.

The present invention relates to a composition comprising non-water soluble dissacharides and oil, a solvent and at least one pharmaceutical ingredient, wherein the composition contains at least two compounds selected from saccharides and lipid oils such as lactose octabenzoate Methyl hepta-O-isobutyryl-α,β-lactoside, α,β-Lactose octa para-iodobenzoate, 3-iodobenzyl hepta-O-isobutyryl-α,β-lactoside, lactose octapropionate, lactose octaisobutyrate, sucrose octabenzoate, glycerol trihexanoate, Glycerol trioctanoate, Glycerol tridecanoate, Lipiodol, ethyl myristate, ethyl palmitate, ethyl oleoate and wherein the composition is a liquid before administration into the human or animal body and increases in viscosity by more than 2,000 centipoise (cP) after administration.

Systems, kits and methods for preparing an injection system and/or treating target lesions with a selective internal radiation therapy which includes a double-barrel syringe loaded with a two-component tissue glue and radioisotope loaded microspheres. The microspheres are loaded into the syringe based on the size of the target location and are administered with a needle or dual-lumen catheter. Dosing regimens for treating breast cancer lesions or surgical beds up to 130 mm in diameter and hepatocellular carcinoma lesions up to 50 mm are included.

A target tissue can be treated with a radioisotope. Some methods for treating a target tissue with a radioisotope include determining a distance between a target tissue and a surface of a matrix material to be positioned adjacent the target tissue and, based on the determined distance, determining an activity to be mixed with the matrix material to obtain a desired activity concentration. Some methods further include mixing the radioisotope with the matrix material. In some embodiments, the matrix material comprises bone cement, and the target tissue is a tumor in a bone. The radioisotope may be a beta-emitting radioisotope mixed in the cement at a concentration to form a radioactive cement.

A method of distributing microparticles is provided, the method comprising: providing a plurality of microparticles at an insertion site in a medium; applying ultrasound to the insertion site that generates gas bubbles by cavitation at cavitation nuclei located at the insertion site and drives movement of the gas bubbles such that the gas bubbles drive movement of the microparticles into a desired spatial distribution in the tumour. The method may be a method of treating a tumour, and the microparticles may comprise a radioisotope for treating the tumour. Microparticles for use in the treatment of a tumour by the method are also disclosed.

The present invention relates to stable pharmaceutical compositions of sulfur colloid, which advantageously provide a high radiochemical purity to .sup.99mTc-pertechnetate without causing the gel formation. The compositions include pre-lyophilized and lyophilized compositions of sulfur colloid. It also relates to a non-radioactive kit which upon reconstitution with .sup.99mTc-pertechnetate solution gives stabilized .sup.99mmTc-Sulfur colloid radiopharmaceutical composition. Further, the process for preparation of said compositions and their use for diagnostic purposes are also disclosed.

The disclosure provide an apparatus for producing a nuclide by using a liquid target which can perform the nuclear reaction process and can discharge the radioactive gas such as Radon within the vial. As described above, an apparatus for producing a nuclide by using a liquid target according to the present disclosure can minimize quantitative loss of a reactant by performing the nuclear reaction process using a target of a liquefied state and reusing a liquefied target on which the nuclear reaction process has not been performed, and can improve safety by enabling the radioactive gas generated to be disposed.
