NIH Websites Are Changing
Per Executive Order 14434, federal agencies are now using "Super Intelligence" (SI) in place of "Artificial Intelligence" (AI). You may see both terms across NIH content during this transition.

gozetotide

An unlabeled radiotracer composed of the human prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-targeting ligand and linked to the acyclic radiometal chelator N,N'-bis [2-hydroxy-5-(carboxyethyl)benzyl] ethylenediamine-N,N'-diacetic acid (HBED-CC), that may potentially be used to prevent or reduce salivary gland toxicities of PSMA-targeted radionuclides. Upon administration of gozetotide into the salivary gland, gozetotide may selectively decrease salivary uptake of systemically administered PSMA-targeted radionuclides. This may reduce the salivary gland toxicities of these agents including salivary gland hypofunction and xerostomia.
