Abstract

Introduction: Based on reports on the increased therapeutic efficacy of 161Tb- over 177Lu-labeled antagonists (1), and the promising in vitro and in vivo data of 177Lu- and 161Tb-labeled gastrin-releasing peptide receptor (GRPR) ligands, RM2 (DOTA-Pip5-D-Phe6-Gln7-Trp8-Ala9-Val10-Gly11-His12-Sta13-Leu14-NH2) and AMTG (α-Me-Trp8-RM2) (2), we completed a treatment study in PC3 tumor-bearing animals to investigate whether these 161Tb-labeled derivatives might be a superior treatment option for GRPR-expressing malignancies than their 177Lu-labeled analogs.
