Diverse topics, with a central theme are discussed. On the one hand, the preparation of an anti-epidermal growth factor MAB, labelled with 177 Lu is detailed. In addition, traditional syntheses of isotopically labelled small molecules are also highlighted. Lu-anti-EGF-Mab using a macrocyclic ligand, DOTAM (2,2 0 ,2 00 ,2 000 -(1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetrayl) tetraacetamide) and its in vivo biodistribution in animal models. DOTAM-EGF was synthesized in high yield at room temperature in 0.1 M NaHCO 3 pH 8.2 using a mixture of DOTAM/anti-EGF-Mab in nonstoichiometric ratio. The complex was then labeled with 177 Lu (15 mCi 177 LuCl 3 , pH 4) with more than 95% labeling efficiency. Biodistribution evaluation revealed a major accumulation in periferal tumor tissues (up to 12.49% ID/g) at 24 h after i.v. injection while the tumor mass uptaked 7 times less activity. The liver, kidneys, and small intestine showed a moderate took up, the mean value was 3.4 ID/g in the first two hours post injection following a decreasing curve up to 0.5% ID/g at 72 h post injection. Based of the preliminary results of this study 177 Lu-(DOTAM)anti-EGF-Mab will be tested as a new radiopharmaceutical for epidermal malignancies.Keywords: epidermal growth factor; lutetium-177; targeted radiotherapy Introduction: One of the latest approaches in cancer therapy implies the use of a high linear energy transfer, nonpenetrating radiation specifically delivered at cellular level. Receptor-mediated radiotherapy (also called targeted radiotherapy, TRT) relies on the use of a receptor specific ligand to transport a radionuclide to tumor cells that overexpress the target receptor. The selection of the ligand is based on its ability to selectively target cancer cells. The therapeutic radiation is delivered to tumors while minimizing radiation exposure to normal tissues. In this concept, the radioligand should be rapidly cleared from circulation; the chelate should be stable under physiological conditions; the tumor cells should express a sufficiently high density of receptors and a long biological residence time of radioactivity is needed. The receptor internalization is the basic process that sustains the selectivity and therapeutic efficacy of targeted radiotherapy while the radioactive metabolites should remain trapped in the cell. Researchers are investigating both the agents that seek out specific tumor cells for treatment and the radioisotope payload that delivers the radiation.The EGFR (Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor) is a validated anticancer target. The physiological roles of EGFR ensure epidermal renewal and integrity. Alterations in the EGFR family are involved in the development of cancer leading to the stimulation of tumor growth, protection from apoptosis, angiogenesis, and the formation of metastases
