- Researchers have identified a new radioactive substance called CB-2PA-NT as a promising candidate for a theranostics strategy, combining therapy and diagnostics.
- The substance, which targets neurotensin receptors found in various cancers, demonstrates high uptake and retention in tumors while maintaining a clear distinction from surrounding tissues.
- With regulatory approval pending, researchers hope to conduct human imaging studies using CB-2PA-NT in the near future, which could impact personalized medicine for cancer patients.
