DOTA-TATE
DOTA-TATE (DOTATATE,[1] DOTA-octreotate, oxodotreotide, DOTA-(Tyr3)-octreotate,[2] and DOTA-0-Tyr3-Octreotate) is an eight amino acid long peptide, with a covalently bonded DOTA bifunctional chelator.

DOTA-TATE can be reacted with the radionuclides gallium-68, lutetium-177 and copper-64 to form radiopharmaceuticals for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging or radionuclide therapy. 177Lu DOTA-TATE therapy is a form of peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) which targets somatostatin receptors (SSR).[3][4] In that form of application it is a form of targeted drug delivery.
Chemistry and mechanism of action
DOTA-TATE is a compound containing tyrosine3-octreotate,[2] an SSR agonist, and the bifunctional chelator DOTA (tetraxetan).[5][6] SSRs are found with high density in numerous malignancies, including CNS, breast, lung, and lymphatics.[7] The role of SSR agonists (i.e. somatostatin and its analogs such as octreotide, somatuline and vapreotide) in neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) is well established,[8] and massive SSR overexpression is present in several NETs. (Tyr3)-octreotate binds the transmembrane receptors of NETs with highest activity for SSR2 and is actively transported into the cell via endocytosis, allowing trapping of the radioactivity and increasing the probability of the desired double-strand DNA breakage (for tumour control). Trapping improves the probability of this kind of effect due to the relatively short range of the beta particles emitted by 177Lu, which have a maximum range in tissue of <2 mm.[9][8][10] Bystander effects include cellular damage by free radical formation.
Clinical applications
Gallium-68 DOTA-TATE
68Ga DOTA-TATE (GaTate) is used to measure tumor SSR density and wholebody bio-distribution via PET imaging.[11][12] 68Ga DOTA-TATE imagery has a much higher sensitivity and resolution compared to 111In octreotide gamma camera or SPECT scans, due to intrinsic modality differences.[11]
Lutetium-177 DOTA-TATE
DOTA-TATE can be used in the treatment of cancers which express the relevant somatostatin receptors, by combining with the beta emitter lutetium-177.[13] The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers lutetium Lu 177 dotatate to be a first-in-class medication.[14]
Alternatives to 177Lu-DOTATE include yttrium-90 DOTATATE or DOTATOC. The larger range of 90Y may make it more suitable for large tumors with 177Lu reserved for smaller volumes.[15][16]
