Research Abstract

An early and accurate identification of the tumor response to therapy with molecular targeted drugs is indispensable for selecting optimal personalized treatment strategies. Thus, in this study we utilized molecular imaging technologies including PET and SPECT for visualizing tumor proliferation and angiogenesis/hypoxia, and demonstrated their usefulness in determining the tumor response to molecular targeted drugs at an earlier time stage using animal models. We also demonstrated the potential of our novel candidate compound for angiogenesis imaging in in vitro and in vivo studies. The present results could provide important evidence that may lead to the development of a novel diagnostic and assessment tool for measuring the tumor response to treatment with molecular targeted drugs, taking advantage of molecular imaging technologies for visualizing changes in tumor pathological states at the molecular and cellular levels.
