I will have to dig deeper to find the 4 clinical trials mentioned, but here is the text "Each tumor has its own distinctive molecular identity. Treatment, therefore, should be tailored to this unique cancer phenotype. Theragnostics uses the same compound for targeted imaging and treatment, radiolabeled to an appropriate radionuclide, respectively. Gastrin-releasing peptide receptors (GRPRs) are overexpressed in prostate cancer, and radiolabeled GRPR antagonists have shown high diagnostic performance at staging and biochemical recurrence. Several GRPR-targeting theragnostic compounds have been developed preclinically. Their translation into clinics is underway with 4 clinical trials recruiting participants with GRPR-expressing tumors."

Unfortunately the Medical Board has found you guilty of practicing medicine without a license (melatonin chew) therefore you will serve a term of a 5 year sentence of not criticizing your husband (especially his driving and TV preferences, p.s. he gets the tv remote first)....

Good Luck, Good Health and Good Humor.
