Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a promising cancer treatment modality that combines targeted boron agents and neutron irradiation to selectively destroy tumor cells. In mainland China, the clinical implementation of BNCT has made certain progress, primarily driven by the development of compact neutron source devices. The availability, ease of operation, and cost-effectiveness offered by these compact neutron sources make BNCT more accessible to cancer treatment centers. Two compact neutron sources, one being miniature reactor-based (IHNI-1) and the other one being accelerator-based (NeuPex), have entered the clinical research phase and are planned for medical device registration. Moreover, several accelerator-based neutron source devices employing different technical routes are currently under construction, further expanding the options for BNCT implementation. In addition, the development of compact neutron sources serves as an experimental platform for advancing the development of new boron agents. Several research teams are actively involved in the development of boron agents. Various types of third-generation boron agents have been tested and studied in vitro and in vivo. Compared to other radiotherapy therapies, BNCT in mainland China still faces specific challenges due to its limited clinical trial data and its technical support in a wide range of professional fields. To facilitate the widespread adoption of BNCT, it is crucial to establish relevant technical standards for neutron devices, boron agents, and treatment protocols.
Boron neutron capture therapy(BNCT) is a binary targeted radiation therapy in which neutron does not directly provide tumor dose. The dose produced by the 10B(n, α)7Li capture reaction will be deposited in tumor cells by using targeted 10B agents. Therefore, understanding the biological distribution of 10B agents in the blood, tumor and normal tissue is essential for BNCT. 4-borono-L-phenylalanine(BPA) is the mainly used 10B agent in BNCT clinical trials worldwide. In order to support and facilitate the preparation of BPA-based BNCT clinical trials, information on the structure, physicochemical properties, cellular uptake mechanisms and human biological distribution of BPA are summarized in this paper.

A study of the 10B-enriched Boronophenylalanine-fructose complex(10BPA-F) infusion procedure in potential BNCT patients, including three skin melanomas of extremities, was performed. 10B concentration in tumor(T), blood(B), skin(S) were measured to determine tumor/blood(T/B) and skin/blood(S/B) ratios. T/B ratio for three melanoma patients was in the range 1.48-3.82(average 2.56 ± 0.69). S/B ratio was in the range 0.81-1.99(average 1.29 ± 0.35). Results showed that T/B ratio of nodular metastasis melanoma was higher than superficial spreading melanoma. 10B concentration in skin was higher than blood, which was helpful to avoid over-dose in normal skin.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the utility of thyroid static imaging with 99mTcO4- for detecting metastatic lesions following surgery in patients with Differentiated Thyroid Cancer (DTC). A total of 420 consecutive post-total thyroidectomy patients with pathologically diagnosed differentiated thyroid cancer underwent thyroid static imaging with 99mTcO4- before 131I treatment to evaluate the size, location, and function of the residual thyroid. They also underwent 131I whole-body scanning (131IWBS), as well as single-photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography fusion imaging (when necessary), for evaluation of the lesions. The detection rates of thyroid static imaging with 99mTcO4- and 131I-WBS (therapeutic dose) were 83.81% and 98.33%, respectively. The sensitivity of 99mTcO4- thyroid static imaging was 85.2%, and the rate of detection with both 99mTcO4- static imaging and 131I-WBS was 85.48%. The use of 99mTcO4- thyroid static imaging identified metastatic lesions in 10 patients; thus, the original planned treatment dose and protocol were adjusted in these patients. Based on our findings, we conclude that thyroid static imaging with 99mTcO4- can be used to evaluate the residual thyroid tissue after thyroid carcinoma resection and can identify metastatic lesions, thereby helping to guide the selection of the 131I treatment dose.
A phase I/II clinical trial for treating malignant melanoma by boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) was designed to evaluate whether the world’s first in-hospital neutron irradiator (IHNI) was qualified for BNCT. In this clinical trial planning to enroll 30 patients, the first case was treated on August 19, 2014. We present the protocol of this clinical trial, the treating procedure, and the clinical outcome of this first case. Only grade 2 acute radiation injury was observed during the first four weeks after BNCT and the injury healed after treatment. No late radiation injury was found during the 24-month follow-up. Based on positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET/CT) scan, pathological analysis and gross examination, the patient showed a complete response to BNCT, indicating that BNCT is a potent therapy against malignant melanoma and IHNI has the potential to enable the delivery of BNCT in hospitals.
A prompt gamma neutron activation analysis (PGNAA) system has been recently developed at the 30-kW research reactor In-Hospital Neutron Irradiator (IHNI) in Beijing. Neutrons from the specially designed thermal neutron beam were used. The thermal flux of this beam is 3.08×10(6) cm(-2) s(-1) at a full reactor power of 30 kW. The PGNAA system consists of an n-type high-purity germanium (HPGe) detector of 40% efficiency, a digital spectrometer, and a shielding part. For both the detector shielding part and the neutron beam shielding part, the inner layer is composed of (6)Li2CO3 powder and the outer layer lead. The boron-10 sensitivity of the PGNAA system is approximately 2.5 cps/ppm. Two calibration curves were produced for the 1-10 ppm and 10-50 ppm samples. The measurement results of the control samples were in accordance with the inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES) results.
