About this trial
Purpose Ephrin type-A receptor 2 (EphA2) is a receptor tyrosine kinase overexpressed in various solid tumors and associated with tumor progression, metastasis, and poor prognosis. However, noninvasive imaging tools for assessing EphA2 expression in vivo remain limited. This study aims to develop a novel 68Ga-labeled EphA2-targeting positron emission tomography (PET) tracer for specific imaging of EphA2-positive malignancies.
