Descrição

4-(p-iodophenyl)butyric acid (4-IBBA) is a radiolabeled, non-toxic compound that is used in biotherapeutics to detect and treat cancer. 4-IBBA can be labeled with a small amount of radioactive iodine, which is then taken up by the tumor cells. The radioactivity can then be detected using a nuclear medicine imaging technique such as positron emission tomography (PET) or single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). This compound also binds to human albumin and has been shown to bind to herpes simplex virus type 1 glycoprotein B.
4-IBBA has been shown to have pharmacokinetic properties that are similar to those of butyric acid, with rapid uptake into the gut and rapid excretion from the body. There are no long-term toxicities associated with this drug.
