Abstract: Abstract: Anti-CD20 (Rituximab®), a specific chimeric monoclonal antibody used in CD20-positive Non-Hodgkin''s Lymphoma, was conjugated to a bifunctional quelate (DOTA) and radiolabeled with 177Lu through a simple method. [177Lu]-DOTA-anti-CD20 was obtained with a radiochemical purity higher than 97%, and showed good chemical and biological stability, maintaining its biospecificity to CD20 antigens. Monte Carlo simulation showed high doses deposited on a spheroid tumor mass model. This method seems to be an appropriate alternative for the production of [177Lu]-DOTA-anti-CD20 as therapeutic radiopharmaceutical. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
