DOTA-TATE (DOTATATE, DOTA-octreotate, oxodotreotide, DOTA-(Tyr3)-octreotate, and DOTA-0-Tyr3-Octreotate) is an eight amino acid long peptide, with a covalently bonded DOTA bifunctional chelator.
DOTA-TATE can be reacted with the radionuclides gallium-68 (T1/2 = 68 min), lutetium-177 (T1/2 = 6.65 d) and copper-64 (T1/2 = 12.7 h) to form radiopharmaceuticals for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging or radionuclide therapy. 177Lu DOTA-TATE therapy is a form of peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) which targets somatostatin receptors (SSR). In that form of application it is a form of targeted drug delivery.
