Due to the restricted expression of alpha(v)beta(3) in tumours, alpha(v)beta(3) is considered a suitable receptor for tumour targeting. In this study the alpha(v)beta(3)-binding characteristics of Ga-68-labelled monomeric, dimeric and tetrameric RGD peptides were determined and compared with their In-111-labelled counterparts. A monomeric (E-c(RGDfK)), a dimeric (E-[c(RGDfK)](2)) and a tetrameric (E{E[c(RGDfK)](2)}(2)) RGD peptide were synthesised, conjugated with DOTA and radiolabelled with Ga-68. In vitro alpha(v)beta(3)-binding characteristics were determined in a competitive binding assay. In vivo alpha(v)beta(3)-targeting characteristics of the compounds were assessed in mice with subcutaneously growing SK-RC-52 xenografts. In addition, microPET images were acquired using a microPET/CT scanner. The IC50 values for the Ga(III)-labelled DOTA-E-c(RGDfK), DOTA-E-[c(RGDfK)](2) and DOTA-E{E[c(RGDfK)](2)}(2) were 23.9 +/- 1.22, 8.99 +/- 1.20 and 1.74 +/- 1.18 nM, respectively, and were similar to those of the In(III)-labelled mono-, di- and tetrameric RGD peptides (26.6 +/- 1.15, 3.34 +/- 1.16 and 1.80 +/- 1.37 nM, respectively). At 2 h post-injection, tumour uptake of the Ga-68-labelled mono-, di- and tetrameric RGD peptides (3.30 +/- 0.30, 5.24 +/- 0.27 and 7.11 +/- 0.67%ID/g, respectively) was comparable to that of their In-111-labelled counterparts (2.70 +/- 0.29, 5.61 +/- 0.85 and 7.32 +/- 2.45%ID/g, respectively). PET scans were in line with the biodistribution data. On all PET scans, the tumour could be clearly visualised. The integrin affinity and the tumour uptake followed the order of DOTA-tetramer > DOTA-dimer > DOTA-monomer. The Ga-68-labelled tetrameric RGD peptide has excellent characteristics for imaging of alpha(v)beta(3) expression with PET.
