“…47,48,52,55,60 Attaching an albumin binding group, (p-iodophenylbutanoyl or Evans Blue) to prolong blood circulation time is a common approach that has been exploited in the drug design of diagnostics and therapeutics. 61,62 A longer tumor retention is particularly desirable for targeted radiotherapy, through which delivering of a higher internal radiation dose to the tumor is maximized. Compared to [ 177 Lu]Lu-4, [ 177 Lu]Lu-7 contains a pegylated p-iodophenylbutanoyl group, and as expected, showed extended blood circulation time and increased tumor uptake and retention in the mice tumor model (Figure 7).…”
