Brief Summary:
The US FDA approved a targeted somatostatin receptor 2 imaging agent, 68Ga-DOTATATE, in 2016. It has higher uptake in small cell lung cancer, pulmonary carcinoid, and medullary thyroid cancer. Integrin αvβ3 is highly expressed in some tumor cells and new blood vessels, making it an ideal target for targeted diagnosis and treatment of tumors and tumor vessels.68Ga-labeled DOTA-TATE-RGD is a new type of tumor-specific imaging agent developed by researchers based on the above foundation, which is used for targeted diagnosis and internal radiation therapy for patients with SSTR2 and αvβ3 positive tumors.
Detailed Description:
This research has conducted extensive studies on the treatment of neuroendocrine tumors with 177Lu-EB-TATE and the treatment of FAP-expressing tumors with 177Lu-EB-FAPI. The same protocol had demonstrated 68Ga-TATE-RGD showed an increasing TBR, suggesting the tracer kinetic advantage of TATE-RGD. Compared to the single-target tracer DOTATATE, the dual-target TATE-RGD probe has a clear advantage in detecting NETs liver metastases, and it can be explored for potential therapeutic uses in future studies and used for related companion diagnostics in targeted radiolabeling therapy (RLT), which has been published in the 1st-impact factor journal European Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Medical Imaging (IF: 9.6), performing a small-dose diagnostic PET imaging with the same tracer.
