Abstract
A single vial freeze-dried kit formulation for preparation of three patients' dose of [(99m)Tc]TRODAT-1 has been developed for early diagnosis of Parkinson's disease (PD). Kits were evaluated to ascertain the purity, stability and batch to batch variations. Preclinical evaluation was carried out in laboratory animals and clinical imaging was performed in human patients with PD. The labeling yield and purity of [(99m)Tc]TRODAT-1 was >90%. Swiss mice showed retention of [(99m)Tc]TRODAT-1 in the mid brain region. Clinical studies showed decreased striatal uptake with increasing severity of PD.Copyright © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.
