A radiochemical synthesis of [18F]DK222, a peptide binder of programmed death ligand 1 protein, suitable for human PET studies is described, and results from validation productions are presented. The high specific activity radiotracer product is prepared as a sterile, apyrogenic solution that conforms to current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) requirements. In addition, the production is extended to use a commercial synthesizer platform (General Electric FASTlab 2).
