What is Gallium Ga 68-VMT02?

Gallium Ga 68-VMT02 is a radioconjugate in which the VMT02 melanocyte-stimulating hormone receptor-targeting moiety is labeled with the positron-emitting isotope gallium Ga 68. VMT02 binds MC1R, a G protein-coupled receptor upregulated on metastatic melanoma cells, allowing those cells to be detected by PET imaging. It is studied in melanoma, including uveal and mucosal melanoma.
