Technetium (99mTc) nofetumomab merpentan (trade name Verluma) is a mouse monoclonal antibody used in the diagnosis of lung cancer,[1] gastrointestinal, breast, ovary, pancreas, kidney, cervix, and bladder carcinoma.[2] The antibody itself, nofetumomab, is attached to the chelator merpentan, which links it to the radioisotope technetium-99m (99mTc).[3]
