Peptides in receptor-mediated radiotherapy : from design to the clinical application in cancers. [PDF]
Short peptides can show high affinity for specific receptors overexpressed on tumor cells. Some of these are already used in cancerology as diagnostic tools and others are in clinical trials for therapeutic applications. Therefore, peptides exhibit great

Alpha-peptide receptor radionuclide therapy using actinium-225 labeled somatostatin receptor agonists and antagonists [PDF]
Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) has over the last two decades emerged as a very promising approach to treat neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) with rapidly expanding clinical applications. By chelating a radiometal to a somatostatin receptor (SSTR)

Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy and Primary Brain Tumors: An Overview
Primary brain tumors (PBTs) are some of the most difficult types of cancer to treat, and despite advancements in surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy, new strategies for the treatment of PBTs are needed, especially for those with poor prognosis such as

Case report: Resolution of VIPoma-related symptoms with peptide receptor radionuclide therapy [PDF]
Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) is used for the management of neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) not responsive to somatostatin analogs. In this case series, we report two patients with pancreatic vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP)-secreting NETs

Early response assessment and prediction of overall survival after peptide receptor radionuclide therapy [PDF]
Background Response after peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) can be evaluated using anatomical imaging (CT/MRI), somatostatin receptor imaging ([68Ga]Ga-DOTA-TATE PET/CT), and serum Chromogranin-A (CgA).
