  • Publication number: 20240182382
    Abstract: Up until now, only low reactivity Tzs can be radiolabeled via direct aliphatic SN2. Unfortunately, these structures display too low reactivity for in vivo bioorthogonal chemistry approaches. Highly reactive structures such as mono-unsubstituted tetrazines (H-Tzs) have been reported to be highly sensitive to base. Extensive degradation is observed which prevents isolation of meaningful amounts for imaging studies. In the present invention there is provided a method providing the possibility to radiolabel base sensitive tetrazine structures with significantly improved RCYs. Even tetrazines that were previously not accessible by applying “standard” aliphatic 18F-labeling strategies can be radiolabeled. This places new classes of 18 F-fluorinated compounds within reach for application in PET imaging studies such as for diagnosis of cancers.

  • Publication number: 20220008569
    Abstract: There is provided a radiolabelled peptide-based compound for diagnostic imaging using positron emission tomography (PET). The compound may thus be used for diagnosis of malignant diseases. The compound is particularly useful for imaging of somatostatin overexpression in tumors, wherein the compound is capable of being imaged by PET when administered with a target dose in the range of 150-350 MBq, such as 150-250 MBq, preferable in the range of 191-210 MBq.

  • Publication number: 20210138090
    Abstract: There is provided a novel conjugate that binds to the cell surface receptor uPA (uPAR). The conjugate is based on a fluorescence-labeled peptide useful as a diagnostic probe to the surfaces of cells expressing uPAR. The conjugate is capable of carrying a suitable detectable and imageable label that will allow qualitative detection and also quantitation of uPAR levels in vitro and in vivo. This renders the surgical resection of tumors more optimal.
