Biodistribution and first clinical results of 18F-SiFAlin-TATE PET: a novel 18F-labeled somatostatin analog for imaging of neuroendocrine tumors

PET/CT using 68Ga-labeled somatostatin analogs (SSA) targeting somatostatin receptors (SSR) on the cell surface of well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors (NET) represents the clinical reference standard for imaging. However, economic and logistic challenges of the 68Ge/68Ga generator-based approa...

Description
Summary:PET/CT using 68Ga-labeled somatostatin analogs (SSA) targeting somatostatin receptors (SSR) on the cell surface of well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors (NET) represents the clinical reference standard for imaging. However, economic and logistic challenges of the 68Ge/68Ga generator-based approach have disadvantages over 18F-labeled compounds. Here, we present the first in-human data of 18F-SiFAlin-TATE, a novel 18F-labeled, SSR-targeting peptide. The aim was to compare the intra-individual biodistribution, tumor uptake, and image quality of 18F-SiFAlin-TATE to the clinical reference standard 68Ga-DOTA-TOC.
