Comparative Evaluation of Chelator‐Conjugated Peptides for Lead‐Labeled SSTR2‐Targeted Theranostics: Integrated Computational Modeling and Preclinical Validation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The study integrates density functional theory with radiochemical and biological validation to compare DOTA‐, PSC‐, and DOTAM‐based chelator‐conjugates for 203Pb/212Pb theranostic applications. Distinct differences in metal coordination, electrostatic properties, conformational flexibility, cellular uptake, biodistribution, and dosimetry are identified
