Introduction: Therapeutic potential of beta-emitting cytotoxic radionuclides Y-90 and Lu-177 has been demonstrated in numerous preclinical and clinical trials. A bifunctional chelate that can effectively complex with the radioisotopes is a critical component for molecular targeted radiotherapy Y-90 and Lu-177. A new bifunctional chelate 5p-C-NETA with a relatively long alkyl spacer between the chelating backbone and the functional unit for conjugation to a tumor targeting moiety was synthesized. 5p-C-NETA was conjugated to a model targeting moiety, a cyclic Arg-Gly-Asp-D-Tyr-Lys (RGDyK) peptide binding integrin alpha(v)beta(3) protein overexpressed on various cancers. 5p-C-NETA was conjugated to c(RGDyK) peptide and evaluated for potential use in molecular targeted radiotherapy of Y-90 and Lu-177.Methods: 5p-C-NETA conjugated with c(RGDyK) was evaluated in vitro for radiolabeling, serum stability, binding affinity, and the result of the in vitro studies of 5p-C-NETA-c(RGDyK) was compared to that of 3p-C-NETA-c (RGDyK). Lu-177-5p-C-NETA-c(RGDyK) was further evaluated for in vivo biodistribution using gliobastoma bearing mice.Result: The new chelate rapidly and tightly bound to a cytotoxic radioisotope for cancer therapy, Y-90 or Lu-177 with excellent radiolabeling efficiency and maximum specific activity under mild condition (>99%, RT,
