¹⁸F-Labeled BBN-RGD Heterodimer for Prostate Cancer Imaging

Abstract

Dual integrin alpha(v)beta(3) and GRPR recognition showed significantly improved tumor-targeting efficacy and pharmacokinetics compared with (18)F-labeled RGD and BBN analogs. The same heterodimeric ligand design may also be applicable to other receptor system combinations and other imaging modalities.
