Graphical representations of the key moieties that were appended to the water-soluble SWCNT-NH2 by covalent-functionalization with radionuclides, DOTA, DFO, and antibodies (Note, not drawn to scale). A) Radioimmunotherapeutic drug Construct I (SWCNT-([225Ac]DOTA)(E4G10)). B) Radioimmunoimaging drug Construct II SWCNT-([89Zr]DFO)(E4G10).
Abbreviations: SWCNT, single wall carbon nanotube; DOTA, 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid; DFO, desferrioxamine B; 225Ac, actinium-225; 89Zr, zirconium-89.
