FAPI PET is a PET scan that lights up the scaffolding around almost any solid tumour, including cancers the standard sugar scan misses.
Quinoline-based FAP inhibitors (FAPI-04, FAPI-46, FAPI-74) labelled with 68Ga or 18F image cancer-associated fibroblasts. Superior to FDG in pancreatic, gastric, HCC, and peritoneal disease in head-to-head series. Registrational trials for 68Ga-FAPI-46 and 18F-FAPI-74 (Sofie) are underway. Pairs with FAP-targeted radioligands.
Small molecule binds FAP on stromal fibroblasts; rapid uptake, low background, minimal brain and liver signal.
A FAP-targeted theranostic pair: one version images almost any solid tumour, the other treats it with radiation.
