Translating Supply Chain Lessons from Long-Lived to Short-Lived Radiotherapeutics: Overcoming Gaps in Handling, Quality & Distribution
Time: 1:30 pm
day: Conference Day One
Details:
- Explore how established distribution models for isotopes such as Lutetium-177 differ from those required for short half-life radiotherapies (Lead-212 and Astatine-211), and what adaptations are needed.
- Discuss what elements of long-lived isotope supply (licensing, training, automation, and packaging) can be reused, and where entirely new systems are needed for short-lived compounds.
- Examine approaches to minimize dose loss due to delays, weather, or site readiness when working with short half-life products, including localized production vs hub-and-spoke delivery.
