A Dual-targeting Tracer TATE-RGD for the Diagnosis of SSTR- and RGD- Positive Tumors

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.
