Targeted peptides linked to MRI, PET, or SPECT contrast agents improve tumor detection specificity while reducing non-specific side effects.
Novel PSMA ligands improve tumor uptake and retention while reducing salivary gland binding, enabling alpha-radionuclide therapy with less xerostomia.
Two targeted cancer agents with different biodistribution and pharmacokinetics converge at tumors to boost efficacy without added toxicity.
Using a single activated carboxyl group, chelator attachment to amine dextran avoids oligomerization and preserves tilmanocept biodistribution.
Radiolabeled luminol chelator agents enable non-invasive PET or SPECT imaging of oxidative stress with sensitive ROS detection and stable tissue retention.
A hydrophilic copolymer enables site-specific, high-DAR drug loading with stable circulation, preserved target affinity, and controlled release.
Halogen substitution in somatostatin analogs boosts SST2 and SST5 binding while reducing kidney and liver uptake for more specific tumor therapy.
Targeted radioconjugates bind CD33-positive MDSCs and cancer cells to reduce immune escape and strengthen antitumor response in breast cancer.
Modular FAP-targeted conjugates localize in tumor stroma and release cytotoxins by enzymatic cleavage to limit healthy tissue damage.
Granzyme B-binding compounds improve immunotherapy response assessment by directly imaging cytotoxic T-cell activity beyond FDG-PET limits.
Aromatic-ring F-18 labeling avoids F-18-propanol metabolites, lowers organ background, and simplifies VMAT2 PET tracer synthesis.
Cleavable NIR dye-drug conjugates stay stable in circulation, then release therapy at tumor sites to limit normal-cell toxicity and enable imaging.
A conductor-based trans-vascular approach controls radiotracer biodistribution, reduces off-target exposure, and supports real-time monitored delivery.
