Evaluation of maSSS/maSES-PEG2-RM26 for their potential therapeutic use after labeling with Re-188. Could their [99mTc]Tc-labeled counterparts be used to estimate dosimetry? by Panagiotis Kanellopoulos, Quanyi Yu, Abouzayed Abouzayed, Ekaterina Bezverkhniaia, Vladimir Tolmachev, Anna Orlova

“…Aiming to provide a GRPR-targeting theranostic pair, we have utilized the Tc-99m/Re-188 radiometal pair, in combination with two bombesin based antagonists, maSSS-PEG2-RM26 and maSES-PEG2-RM26. The two main aims of the current study were (i) to elucidate the influence of the radiometal-exchange on the biodistribution profile of the two peptides and (ii) to evaluate the feasibility of using the [99mTc]Tc labeled counterparts for the dosimetry estimation for the [188Re]Re-labeled conjugates. …”
