Molecular imaging of COVID binding receptor

— Technology Description

A team of researchers led by Professor Daniel Thorek at Washington University have developed a peptide specific to human ACE2, the receptor for SARS-CoV-2, that can be used for imaging or therapeutic delivery. The peptide can be easily chelated for PET imaging, allowing for …

Radium Chelation For Targeted Alpha Particle Therapy

— Technology Description

Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis have developed a method to chelate radium-223 and increase its utility in targeted alpha-particle therapy (TAT). TAT aims to deliver cytotoxic alpha-particles to cancer cells. Radium-223 is an alpha particle emitting isotope …

Ion Channel Blockade of Radium-223 Gut Uptake

— Technology Description

Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis have developed a method to reduce gut uptake of Radium-223 and improve its targeting to metastasized bone cancer. Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among men and a leading cause of cancer-related mortality. Prostate c…
