About FC705 and 177Lu-FC705
2nd generation PSMA-targeted therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals. 177Lu-FC705 belongs to the 2nd generation of albumin binders introduced drugs. Its hydrophilicity is higher than that of other compounds, and has low nonspecific binding. 177Lu-FC705 will have constantly increasing uptake in prostate cancer due to the introduction of albumin binder while it will be rapidly excreted from normal organs. In this regard, 177Lu labeled 177Lu-FC705 can be expected to have high therapeutic effect and very low damage to normal organs. Currently, efficacy of 177Lu-FC705 is being clinically tested in Phase 2 in Korea and 1/2a in US.
