Evaluation of [Zr]Zr-DFO-2Rs15d Nanobody for Imaging of HER2-Positive Breast Cancer.

One of the most aggressive forms of breast cancer involves the overexpression of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2). HER2 is overexpressed in ∼25% of all breast cancers and is associated with increased proliferation, increased rates of metastasis, and poor prognosis. Treatment for HER2-positive breast cancer has vastly improved since the development of the monoclonal antibody trastuzumab (Herceptin) as well as other biological constructs.
