  • * P < 0.05 for differences in tumor and kidney uptake between 99mTc(EDDA)-HYNIC-AocNle-CycMSHhex with and without peptide blockade, and with and without L-lys coinjection at 2 h after injection.

  • T/NT = tumor–to–normal-tissue uptake ratio.

  • Two-hour data are cited from Table 2 for comparison. Data are %ID/g or %ID (mean ± SD, n = 5).
