Abstract

Over the past two decades, peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) has been developed as a valid approach for cancer adjuvant treatment. 177Lu is an excellent radionuclide suitable for radionuclide therapy of tumors and metastases, which highlights the advantages of using PRRT for cancer treatment, subsequently encourages scientists to explore many different types of peptides for tumor radionuclide therapy. Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) and bombesin (BBN) heterodimers have been investigated for dual targeting of tumor integrin αvβ3 receptors and gastrin-releasing peptide receptors. In this chapter, we present the potential application of 177Lu-labeled RGD-BBN heterodimer for targeting prostate cancer.
