Outline of presentation
Background: X-ray radiotherapy and how can we improve it?
Low energy 160 kV vs 6000 kV (6 MV) X-rays
What is radiosensitization?
enhancing X-ray dose with heavy elements to kill malignant cells
Monte Carlo simulations on radiosensitization using heavy elements (high atomic number Z or HZ – review from earlier presentation).
Experiments: promising in vitro results
In vivo experiments in progress

Current Radiotherapy
6 MV clinical linac (Varian Clinac)
unfiltered spectrum: ~0-6000 keV (6 MeV)
• X-rays can not differentiate between tumor tissues and healthy tissues with or with out radiosensitization
• Reason for use: penetration

What if there was a way to increase the damage to tumor tissues that more than
makes up for the lack of penetration?
There is! With heavy element radiosensitization!

In vitro experiments
F98 rat glioma cells:
Radiosensitized with relatively non-toxic HZ radiosensitizer or carboplatin
Irradiated with either 6 MV or 160 kV X-rays to test changes in surviving fraction (SF)

In vitro analysis Methods and materials
Clonogenic assay with Pt-sensitized F98 cells after broadband X-ray irradiation (160 kV Vs 6 MV, 7 Gy)

Radiosensitizers:
Pyridine Terpyridine Pt(II) complex (typ-Pt)
- low in vitro toxicity
- allows decoupling of chemotoxicity and radiotoxicity
- unexpectedly cytotoxic in vivo
Carboplatin
- common cancer therapeutic – well known cytotoxic range
- going to be used in in vivo study

Conclusion
In vitro experiments showed greater cell death with low energy X-rays
Radiosensitized rats treated with low energy X- rays SHOULD live longer
