Herein, we describe a fast and robust method for achieving (68)Ga-labelling of the EGFR-selective monoclonal antibody (mAb) Cetuximab using the bioorthogonal Inverse-electron-Demand Diels-Alder (IeDDA) reaction. The in vivo imaging of EGFR is demonstrated, as well as the translation of the method within a two-step pretargeting strategy.

Labeling DNA Probes
Radioisotopes, fluorophores, or small molecule binding partners like biotin or digoxigenin, are the most widely used reporter tags for labeling DNA probes. These labels can be attached to the probe DNA molecule via...
