PET Imaging of VPAC1 Expression in Experimental and Spontaneous Prostate Cancer

Abstract

Data indicate that TP3939, with its uncompromised biologic activity, delineated xenografts and cases of occult PC that were not detectable with (18)F-FDG. (64)Cu-TP3939 is a promising probe for PET imaging of PC. It may also be useful for localizing recurrent lesions and for determining the effectiveness of its treatment.
