The influence of several parameters involved in the 68Ga radiolabeling of FAPI-46 was studied at the scale of the automated reaction. Among the buffers tested, HEPES 0.3 M pH 4 allowed both high radiochemical purity (RCP) and radiochemical yield (RCY), without prepurification of 68Ga but after final purification of [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46 on a C18 cartridge. A longer reaction time did not show significant benefit on the RCP, while higher loads of FAPI-46 and gentisic acid as anti-radiolysis compound allowed better RCY.
