Purpose.
The purpose of this paper is to evaluate a new PET tracer 64Cu-NODAGA-c(RGDyK) for imaging of tumor angiogenesis using gene expression of angiogenesis markers as reference and to estimate radiation dosimetry for humans.
Procedures.
Nude mice with human neuroendocrine tumor xenografts (H727) were administered 64Cu-NODAGA-c(RGDyK) i.v.
for study of biodistribution as well as for dynamic PET.
Gene expression of angiogenesis markers integrin αV, integrin β3, and VEGF-A were analyzed using QPCR and correlated to the tracer uptake in the tumors (%ID/g).
From biodistribution data human radiation-absorbed doses were estimated using OLINDA/EXM.
Results.
Tumor uptake was 1.2%ID/g with strong correlations between gene expression and tracer uptake, for integrin αV R=0.76, integrin β3 R=0.75 and VEGF-A R=0.81 (all P<0.05).
The whole body effective dose for humans was estimated to be 0.038 and 0.029 mSv/MBq for females and males, respectively, with highest absorbed dose in bladder wall.
Conclusion.
64Cu-NODAGA-c(RGDyK) is a promising new angiogenesis PET tracer with potential for human use.
