Excerpt

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most malignant primary brain tumor with limited treatment options in case of recurrence. Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) expression was demonstrated in microvascular endothelium of GBM and in vivo confirmed by [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT in primary as well in recurrence tumor [14]. This knowledge opens a new way for targeted, PSMA-based treatment. However, it was suggested that uptake not in tumor cells, but in microvascular endothelium, could be characterized by quick washout. …
