Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) has emerged as an important molecular target for several neoplastic diseases, including colorectal cancer with CEA over‐expression. In this study, we report the production and radiolabeling of a novel anti‐CEA single‐chain fragment variable (scFv‐96NRT, concentration for 50% of maximal effect 46 ng/ml), and evaluation of [99mTc]Tc‐scFv‐96NRT in non‐invasive detection of CEA expression. [99mTc]Tc‐scFv‐96NRT was synthesized by one step reduction in labeling yield of >95% with radiochemical purity of >98% and molar activity of 10–11 GBq/μmol. [99mTc]Tc‐scFv‐96NRT showed high stability in 0.01 M phosphate‐buffered saline (PBS) and 5% human serum albumin (HSA). It exhibited elevated uptake in CEA over‐expressing cells. Biodistribution studies in BALB/c mice revealed that the probe was cleared from blood rapidly, and the highest retention was observed in the kidneys. The micro‐single‐photon emission computed tomography (micro‐SPECT) imaging of [99mTc]Tc‐scFv‐96NRT showed a specific accumulation pattern, as blocking experiment with excess scFv‐96NRT suppressed the tumor uptake. These preliminary results suggest that [99mTc]Tc‐scFv‐96NRT is a potential non‐invasive molecular probe for imaging tumors with CEA over‐expression.
