Pathogen-Specific Actinium-225 and Lutetium-177 Labeled Antibodies for Treatment of Biofilm-Associated Implant Infections: Initial In Vivo Proof-of-Concept

These results should be interpreted in the context of the study's constraints, particularly the limited animal sample size. Nonetheless, the results suggest that in vivo applied radiation may help reduce a biofilm-associated infection at the implant site as well as in the surrounding bone. These findings encourage further investigation into the use of targeted and non-targeted radiation, potentially combined with antibiotics, to develop effective strategies for eradicating biofilm-associated implant infections.
