- A highly specific targeting agent for the detection, imaging and treatment of tumors.
- When combined with low level radiation, the PTPµ biomarker functions as a highly specific PET imaging agent.
- When combined with high energy radiation, the PTPµ biomarker works as a radiopharmaceutical theranostic to destroy tumours.
- In therapeutic mode, the biomarker labels tumor cells far away from the main tumor mass, achieving specific recognition of the full extent of an invasive tumor.
- The biomarker recognises PTPµ in multiple tumor types including brain and gynaecological tumors.
- Initial indication will focus on glioblastoma.
