P < 0.05, comparison of biodistribution between probe spiked with 45 and 500 μg (blocking dose) of Ac-Cys-ZEGFR:1907 at 3 h after injection.

P < 0.05, comparison of biodistribution between probe spiked with 0 and 45 μg of Ac-Cys-ZEGFR:1907 at 3 h after injection.

Data are mean ± SD, expressed as percentage administered activity (injected probe) per gram of tissue (%ID/g) after intravenous injection of probe (1.85–2.59 MBq [50–70 μCi], ~2–3 μg) spiked with 0, 45, and 500 μg of Ac-Cys-ZEGFR:1907 at 3 h after injection. Significant inhibition of 18F-FBEM-Cys-ZEGFR:1907 uptake was observed in A431 tumor of blocked group (500 μg) (P < 0.05).
