The prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) targeted positron-emitting-tomography (PET) tracer 68Ga-PSMA-11 shows great promise in the detection of prostate cancer. However, 68Ga has several shortcomings as a radiolabel including short half-life and non-ideal energies, this motivated consideration 18F-labelled analogs. 18F-PSMA-1007 was selected among 18F-PSMA-ligand candidate compounds because it demonstrated high labelling yields, outstanding tumor uptake fast, non-urinary background...

In recent years, several radiotracers targeting the prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) have been introduced. Some of them had a high clinical impact on treatment patients with prostate cancer. However, number <sup>18</sup>F-labeled tracers addressing PSMA is still limited. Therefore, we aimed to develop radiofluorinated molecule resembling structure therapeutic PSMA-617. <b>Methods:</b> The nonradioactive reference compound PSMA-1007 and precursor were produced by solid-phase...

Radiolabeled tracers targeting the prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) have become important radiopharmaceuticals for PET-imaging of prostate cancer. In this connection, we recently developed fluorine-18-labelled PSMA-ligand [18F]PSMA-1007 as next generation radiofluorinated Glu-ureido PSMA inhibitor after [18F]DCFPyL and [18F]DCFBC. Since radiosynthesis so far has been suffering from rather poor yields, novel procedures automated radiosyntheses developed. We herein report on both...

Abstract Background Cancer-associated fibroblasts are found in the stroma of epithelial tumors. They characterized by overexpression fibroblast activation protein (FAP), a serine protease which was already proven as attractive target for chelator-based theranostics. Unfortunately, value gallium-68 labeled tracers is limited their batch size and short nuclide half-life. To overcome this drawback, radiolabeling with aluminum fluoride complexes 6-fluoronicotinamide derivatives longer-lived...

Abstract The discovery of fibroblast activation protein inhibitor positron emission tomography (FAPI-PET) has paved the way for a new class PET tracers that target tumor microenvironment (TME) rather than itself. Although 18 F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) is most common tracer used in clinical imaging cancer, multiple studies have now shown family FAP ligands commonly outperform FDG detecting cancers, especially those known to lower uptake on FDG-PET. Moreover, FAPI-PET will applications benign...
