A FAP-targeted theranostic pair: one version images almost any solid tumour, the other treats it with radiation.
FAP-2286 is a theranostic pair: a cyclic peptide that binds fibroblast activation protein (FAP), linked to a DOTA chelator carrying 68Ga for PET imaging or 177Lu for beta therapy. FAP sits on cancer-associated fibroblasts in the stroma of most solid tumours rather than on cancer cells, so one agent can image and irradiate many tumour types, and the cyclic peptide gives longer tumour retention than the FAPI small molecules used for imaging. Clovis Oncology developed it until its 2022 bankruptcy; Novartis then acquired it via 3B Pharmaceuticals. The 177Lu-FAP-2286 LuMIERE phase 1/2 trial is dose-escalating in cycles every 6 weeks with pancreatic, sarcoma and breast cohorts. For a newcomer: a radioligand aimed at the scaffolding around tumours rather than the tumour cells.
