  • Tumor targeting of radioiodinated Affibody molecule and trastuzumab was compared in BALB/c nu/nu mice with NCI-N87 xenografts with that for mice injected in advance with blocking amounts of nonlabeled Affibody molecule (1 h before injection of 124I-PIB-ZHER2:342/125I-PIB-trastuzumab) or trastuzumab (24 h before injection of 124I-PIB-ZHER2:342/125I-PIB-trastuzumab) and unspecific to HER2 Affibody molecule 125I-PIB-ZTaq and 125I-PIB-palivizumab.
