An improved glucose‐chelator‐albumin bioconjugate (GluCAB) derivative, GluCAB‐2 Mal , has been synthesized and studied for in vivo 64 Cu‐PET/CT imaging in breast cancer mice models together with its first‐generation analogue GluCAB‐1 Mal . The radioligand works on the principle of tumor targeting through the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect with a supportive role played by glucose metabolism. [ 64 Cu]Cu‐GluCAB‐2 Mal (99 % RCP) exhibited high serum stability with immediate binding to serum proteins. In vivo experiments for comparison between tumor targeting of [ 64 Cu]Cu‐GluCAB‐2 Mal and previous‐generation [ 64 Cu]Cu‐GluCAB‐1 Mal encompassed microPET/CT imaging and biodistribution analysis in an allograft E0771 breast cancer mouse model. Tumor uptake of [ 64 Cu]Cu‐GluCAB‐2 Mal was clearly evident with twice as much accumulation as compared to its predecessor and a tumor/muscle ratio of up to 5 after 24 h. Further comparison indicated a decrease in liver accumulation for [ 64 Cu]Cu‐Glu‐CAB‐2 Mal .
