Our letter entitled "[18F]RCCB6 Immuno-Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography for Postoperative Surveillance in Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma: A Pilot Clinical Study" was published by European Urology.

In this prospective clinical study, we evaluated the safety and imaging efficacy of [18F]RCCB6.  In terms of diagnosis, [18F]RCCB6 can detect lung, pancreas, and brain lesions in patients with ccRCC, compensating for the diagnostic shortcomings of conventional 18F-FDG imaging. In terms of post-treatment evaluation, [18F]RCCB6 effectively monitored metastatic foci such as lymph nodes, lung, and brain in postoperative ccRCC patients. Changes in [18F]RCCB6 uptake in some pulmonary metastatic lesions after targeted therapy suggest a role for [18F]RCCB6 in monitoring treatment response.

 

In conclusion, [18F]RCCB6 has an irreplaceable role in the comprehensive diagnosis of ccRCC, postoperative dynamic follow-up and monitoring of response to targeted therapies, which greatly improves the effectiveness of clinical diagnosis and treatment of ccRCC.

Our research paper entitled "ImmunoPET imaging of Trop2 in patients with solid tumours" was published by EMBO Mol Med.

Recent research highlights Trop2 as an adverse prognostic biomarker in multiple solid tumors, correlating its high expression with reduced survival and increased tumor aggressiveness, while targeting Trop2 may impede tumor growth and metastasis.


We have developed two nanobody radiopharmaceuticals targeting human Trop2 with one of the tracers ([68Ga]Ga-NOTA-T4) showing favourable pharmacokinetics and promising diagnostic capabilities in both preclinical studies and a pilot clinical trial.

This work introduces a groundbreaking clinical-grade Trop2 probe in the field of nuclear medicine, marking a significant breakthrough. This innovative tracer holds promise in altering cancer diagnosis and treatment outcomes. With its precision and sensitivity, the Trop2 probe opens new avenues in oncological imaging, enabling earlier detection and more targeted therapies. Its arrival foreshadows a shift towards personalized medicine, equipping clinicians with potent tools to combat cancer effectively.

Our research paper entitled "ImmunoPET/CT imaging of clear cell renal cell carcinoma with [18F]RCCB6: a first-in-human study" was published by EJNMMI.

CD70 emerges as a promising biomarker for RCC, exhibiting high expression levels within tumors.

Leveraging immunoPET imaging, our research team has developed sdAb tracers targeting CD70, such as [18F]RCCB6, demonstrating potential for precise visualization and monitoring of RCC. Preclinical studies indicate specific uptake of these tracers by CD70-positive tumors. Clinical trial suggests the safety and efficacy of this approach in detecting widespread metastases, including brain metastases, markedly outperforming traditional PET/CT scans. Additionally, our team has prepared tracers like [18F]RB6 by removing His tags from sdAbs, potentially aiding in the detection of primary ccRCC.

Future endeavors of our research team aim to optimize sdAb engineering and assess tracer efficacy in various tumor using advanced imaging techniques.
