Revolutionizing Cancer Detection with Copper-based Diagnostics
NUCLIDIUM AG, a pioneering radiopharmaceutical company based in Switzerland and Germany, is making remarkable strides in the fight against cancer. By utilizing a unique copper-based theranostic platform, they are developing innovative solutions for the diagnosis and treatment of neuroendocrine tumors. During the upcoming European Association of Nuclear Medicine (EANM) congress, scheduled for October 2025, NUCLIDIUM’s research will take center stage, showcasing its latest clinical data derived from a Phase I/II study.
First Clinical Data Presentation at EANM 2025
The excitement is palpable as NUCLIDIUM prepares to unveil preliminary results from their ongoing clinical trial. The abstract focused on the company's PET tracer, [61Cu]Cu-NODAGA-LM3, is set to be shared during a prestigious oral presentation at EANM 2025. This particular tracer is being evaluated for its efficacy in detecting SSTR-positive gastroenteropancreatic and bronchopulmonary neuroendocrine tumors (GEP & BP-NETS). This is a significant step towards improving diagnosis and treatment pathways for patients suffering from these challenging conditions.
Details of the Oral Presentation
Scheduled for Monday, October 6, 2025, at 9:45 AM CEST, the oral presentation will occur in the Clinical Oncology Track. The session carries the weight of being recognized as a Top Rated Oral Presentation by the Oncology & Theranostics Committee under the NET Imaging theme. Dr. Guillaume Nicolas, the principal investigator and Deputy Head of Nuclear Medicine at the University Hospital Basel, will present the compelling findings from the trial.
Abstract Information
The title of the abstract, “A phase I/II study of [61Cu]Cu-NODAGA-LM3 for the detection of neuroendocrine tumours: Preliminary results of the COPPER PET in NET Trial,” signifies the critical nature of this research. The insights gained from this study are expected to set a new benchmark in the diagnosis of neuroendocrine tumors, facilitating early detection and appropriate therapeutic interventions.
