Technetium (99mTc) antiCarcinoEmbryonicAntigen antibody is a radiolabeled monoclonal antibody used in the diagnosis and imaging of tumors expressing the carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), such as certain colorectal, medullary thyroid, and other adenocarcinomas. It is administered as a radiopharmaceutical agent for tumor localization using nuclear medicine techniques. Its clinical use is limited and not widespread today, with most imaging procedures replaced by more advanced PET/CT agents.
Pharmacokinetic parameter estimates for technetium (99mTc) antiCEA antibody based on typical monoclonal antibody behavior in adults. No published primary PK values are available; these values are estimated from analogous radiolabeled antibody agents and general principles.
