A novel class of radiopharmaceuticals has proven effective in non-invasively identifying nearly 30 types of malignant tumors. The 68Ga-FAPI radiotracer targets cancer-associated fibroblasts, which can contribute up to 90 percent of a tumour’s mass. Many cancer-associated fibroblasts differ from normal fibroblasts by their specific expression of the fibroblast activation protein, or FAP. FAP-specific inhibitors were first developed as conventional anticancer drugs; now they have been advanced into tumour-targeting radiopharmaceuticals.
