Overview

NCI Definition [1]:
A radioconjugate consisting of the gastrin-releasing peptide receptor (GRPR) antagonist, NeoBOMB1, linked via the chelating agent, dodecanetetraacetic acid (DOTA), to the beta-emitting radioisotope gallium Ga 68, with potential imaging activity during positron emission topography/computed tomography (PET/CT). Upon administration, gallium Ga 68-DOTA-NeoBOMB1 binds to GRPRs present on cancer cells. Upon binding, this radioconjugate can be used to quantify tumor uptake of NeoBOMB1 using PET/CT. GRPR, also known as bombesin receptor subtype 2, is a G-protein-coupled receptor that is overexpressed in some cancer types.

Gallium ga 68-neob has been investigated in 1 clinical trial, of which 1 is open and 0 are closed. Of the trial investigating gallium ga 68-neob, 1 is phase 1/phase 2 (1 open).

GRPR Overexpression is the most frequent biomarker inclusion criterion for gallium ga 68-neob clinical trials.

Breast carcinoma, gastrointestinal stromal tumor, and glioblastoma are the most common diseases being investigated in gallium ga 68-neob clinical trials [2].
