    NCCHPS Northern California Chapter-Health Physics Society September 2016 The NCCHPS September 2016 Dinner Meeting Thursday, September 15, 2016 Trader Vic’s Restaurant, Emeryville 5:30 pm Social / 7 pm Dinner / 8 pm Announcements and Technical Presentation Development of New Therapeutics for Radionuclide Decorporation: From Discovery to Product Availability The threat of a major radiological contamination presents a danger of not only large-scale external radiation exposure of the population but also internal contamination with radionuclides. While major components of such contamination are likely to be actinides and lanthanide fission products, current therapies for the treatment of f-element internalization are still limited. Over the past three decades, the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory has dedicated a research program to the discovery of oral therapeutics for actinide decorporation, leading to the emergence of the active pharmaceutical ingredient 3,4,3-LI(1,2-HOPO) as an exceptional candidate for actinide sequestration. This chelator is currently undergoing advanced development for the treatment of individuals with known or suspected internal contamination with actinides such as plutonium (Pu), americium (Am), curium (Cm), uranium (U) or neptunium (Np) to increase the rates of elimination of these radionuclides. Following the submission of an Investigational New Drug application, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved the first clinical study for the decorporation agent 3,4,3- LI(1,2-HOPO) in August 2014. The scientific and regulatory work undertaken for the successful development of such new decorporation therapeutic option will be presented.

We keep evolving and improving! The core mission of the Sourcebook has not changed, however. Our purpose is to facilitate interaction among faculty, students, industry, and government agencies to accomplish nuclear research, teaching and service activities. Since 1986 we have compiled critical information on nuclear engineering enrollments, degrees, and faculty expertise in printed and electronic formats. We currently use a web based input format that allows changes to the Sourcebook and the capability to do ranking and sort manipulations in a spreadsheet environment as the data is displayed. We will publish a PDF version of the Sourcebook. We will also include programs that are new and growing, which might include undergraduate curricula with a nuclear energy minor or graduate programs that offer a track or certificate option. We will list only faculty involved in the nuclear options in all of these cases. In general we list faculty that have at least a budgeted 25% appointment in nuclear activities. Other nuclear energy or related programs can be found under the listings for the University Reactors.

  • Development of a Thorium Complex for Radiotherapeutic Applications
    Development of a Thorium Complex for Radiotherapeutic Applications by Tiffany Anhtu Pham A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Chemistry in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Kenneth N. Raymond, Chair Professor John Arnold Professor Rainer Sachs Spring 2014 Abstract Development of a Thorium Complex for Radiotherapeutic Applications by Tiffany Anhtu Pham Doctor of Philosophy in Chemistry University of California, Berkeley Professor Kenneth N. Raymond, Chair Chapter 1. A brief history of the use of ionizing radiation for cancer therapy is presented, as the motivation for modern clinical investigations on alpha therapy and the use and development of bifunctional chelators in targeted medicine. Recent studies on targeted therapy with alpha- emitters, such as 223Ra and 227Th, are described. The chemistry of Th(IV) is presented with a survey of important coordination compounds, with special emphasis on those developed by the Raymond group. Chapter 2. The rational design of a ligand as a suitable bifunctional chelator for 227Th therapy is described in the context of ligands developed by the Raymond group for actinide sequestration. A novel Φ ligand topology incorporating macrocyclic and pendant terephthalamide binding groups aims to address the kinetic and thermodynamic requirements of targeted alpha therapy. The syntheses of the model ligands Φ(2,2)moeTAM and Φ(3,3)moeTAM are detailed, from which a derivative of Φ(2,2)moeTAM is developed. Functionalization of a pendant terephthalamide of the model ligand gives the asymmetric bifunctional chelate Φ(2,2)NBuTAM via the strategic use of protecting groups.
