Abstrakt: Abstract: Duramycin, a 19 amino acids peptide, is known for its potential to target phosphatidylethanolamine. During cell death (apoptosis), rearrangement of membrane phospholipids results in the externalization of phosphatidylethanolamine to the outer leaflet of the cell membrane, which can be imaged using 68Ga-NOTA-duramycin. We report 68Ga-NOTA-duramycin imaging in a 50-year-old man with biopsy-proven diffuse large B-cell lymphoma planned for anthracycline-based chemotherapy. 68Ga-NOTA-duramycin PET/CT imaging along with 18F-FDG PET/CT was performed before and after 2 cycles of chemotherapy. The tracer avidity in interim 68Ga-NOTA-duramycin PET/CT showed its diagnostic potential to assess early response to chemotherapy.
