  • * Results 1–7 d after injection (dpi) are based on published biodistribution data (21).

  • Results 34 dpi are from current study.

  • In this calculation, constant activity in tumor was assumed from time of minimal relative tumor volume (15 dpi for 60 MBq and 19 dpi for 120 MBq) to 34 dpi.

  • § Amount of peptide administered.

  • Data not obtained.

  • Data are given as mean ± SEM (n = 3–6).
