Evaluation of 111In-DOTA-5D3, a Surrogate SPECT Imaging Agent for Radioimmunotherapy of Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen

Kevin Yang ⎜Mar 25, 2019 ⎜ Industry

5D3 is a new high-affinity murine monoclonal antibody specific for prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA). PSMA is a target for the imaging and therapy of prostate cancer. 111In-labeled antibodies have been used as surrogates for 177Lu/90Y-labeled therapeutics. We characterized 111In-DOTA-5D3 by SPECT/CT imaging, tissue biodistribution studies, and dosimetry.

INTRODUCTION: Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is an excellent prostate cancer target for theranostic applications. Many imaging agents showing high sensitivity/specificity for PSMA-expressing tissues have been developed. Some have been labeled with therapeutic radionuclides (i.e. 177Lu, 225Ac) and have had success in treating castration-resistant metastatic prostate cancer. The activity administered to patients is limited by toxicity to normal organs;
