    Radioactive seed localization for nonpalpable breast lesions
    2024 - FERREIRA, HORTENCIA H.J.; SOUZA, CARLA D. de; POZZO, LORENA; RIBEIRO, MARTHA S.; ROSTELATO, MARIA E.C.M.
    Background: This study is a systematic review with meta-analysis comparing radioactive seed localization (RSL) versus radio-guided occult lesion localization (ROLL) and wire-guided localization (WGL) for patients with impalpable breast cancer undergoing breast-conserving surgery and evaluating efficacy, safety, and logistical outcomes. The protocol is registered in PROSPERO with the number CRD42022299726. Methods: A search was conducted in the Embase, Lilacs, Pubmed, Scielo, Web of Science, and clinicaltrials.gov databases, in addition to a manual search in the reference list of relevant articles, for randomized clinical trials and cohort studies. Studies selected were submitted to their own data extraction forms and risk of bias analysis according to the ROB 2 and ROBINS 1 tools. A meta-analysis was performed, considering the random effect model, calculating the relative risk or the mean difference for dichotomous or continuous data, respectively. The quality of the evidence generated was analyzed by outcome according to the GRADE tool. Overall, 46 articles met the inclusion criteria and were included in this systematic review; of these, 4 studies compared RSL and ROLL with a population of 1550 women, and 43 compared RSL and WGL with a population of 19,820 women. Results: The results showed that RSL is a superior method to WGL in terms of surgical efficiency in the impalpable breast lesions’ intraoperative localization, and it is at least equivalent to ROLL. Regarding security, RSL obtained results equivalent to the already established technique, the WGL. In addition to presenting promising results, RSL has been proven to be superior to WGL and ROLL technologies.

    Synthesis, in vitro testing, and biodistribution of surfactant-free radioactive nanoparticles for cancer treatment
    2022 - SOUZA, CARLA D. de; BARBEZAN, ANGELICA B.; ROSERO, WILMMER A.A.; SANTOS, SOFIA N. dos; CARVALHO, DIEGO V. de S.; ZEITUNI, CARLOS A.; BERNARDES, EMERSON S.; VIEIRA, DANIEL P.; SPENCER, PATRICK J.; RIBEIRO, MARTHA S.; ROSTELATO, MARIA E.C.M.
    New forms of cancer treatment, which are effective, have simple manufacturing processes, and easily transportable, are of the utmost necessity. In this work, a methodology for the synthesis of radioactive Gold-198 nanoparticles without the use of surfactants was described. The nuclear activated Gold-198 foils were transformed into H198AuCl4 by dissolution using aqua regia, following a set of steps in a specially designed leak-tight setup. Gold-198 nanoparticles were synthesized using a citrate reduction stabilized with PEG. In addition, TEM results for the non-radioactive product presented an average size of 11.0 nm. The DLS and results for the radioactive 198AuNPs presented an average size of 8.7 nm. Moreover, the DLS results for the PEG-198AuNPs presented a 32.6 nm average size. Cell line tests showed no cytotoxic effect in any period and the concentrations were evaluated. Furthermore, in vivo testing showed a high biological uptake in the tumor and a cancer growth arrest.

    Comparing different methods for radioactive iodine fixation intended for brachytherapy sources manufacture
    2016 - SOUZA, CARLA D.; ROSTELATO, MARIA E.C.M.; ZEITUNI, CARLOS A.; PELEIAS JUNIOR, FERNANDO S.; BENEGA, MARCOS A.G.; MOURA, JOAO A.; FEHER, ANSELMO; COSTA, OSVALDO L.; TIEZZI, RODRIGO; RODRIGUES, BRUNA T.; SILVA, THAIS H. da; SORGATTI, ANDERSON; SOUZA, DAIANE C.B. de
    Brachytherapy, a method of radiotherapy, is being extensively used in the early and intermediate stages of the illness. In this treatment, radioactive seeds are placed inside or next to the area requiring treatment, which reduces the probability of unnecessary damage to surrounding healthy tissues. Currently, the radioactive isotope iodine-125, fixated on silver substrate, is one of the most used in prostate brachytherapy. The present study compares several deposition methods of radioactive iodine on silver substrate, in order to choose the most suitable one to be implemented at the laboratory of radioactive sources production of IPEN. Three methods were selected: method 1 (test based on electrodeposition method, developed by David Kubiatowicz) which presented efficiency of 65.16%; method 2 (chemical reaction based on the method developed by David Kubiatowicz - HCl) which presented efficiency of 70.80%; method 3 (chemical reaction based on the method developed by Dr. Maria Elisa Rostelato) which presented efficiency of 55.80%. Based on the results, the second method is the suggested one to be implemented at the laboratory of radioactive sources production of IPEN.
