Urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR), the cell-surface receptor for its ligand uPA, plays a critical role in regulating cell migration and invasion-key drivers of cancer progression. This study aims to evaluate a novel uPAR-targeting radiopharmaceutical pair: the diagnostic agent \[⁶⁸Ga\]Ga-HT547 and the therapeutic agent \[¹⁷⁷Lu\]Lu-HT547. In patients with breast cancer, head and neck cancer, pancreatic cancer, or glioma, we will assess the diagnostic performance and biodistribution of these tracers using \[⁶⁸Ga\]Ga-HT547 and \[¹⁷⁷Lu\]Lu-HT547 SPECT/CT.
All enrolled participants will undergo the same intervention procedure: first, a single intravenous dose (approximately 150 MBq) of ⁶⁸Ga-HT547 for uPAR-targeted PET/CT diagnostic imaging. Subsequently, a single intravenous dose (approximately 4 GBq) of ¹⁷⁷Lu-HT547 will be administered for follow-up SPECT/CT imaging and dosimetry studies.

12. Major surgery or significant trauma within 28 days prior to the first dose.
13. Any other condition that, in the investigator's judgment, may increase safety risk or interfere with its interpretation.
14. Inability of the subject to understand and comply with study instructions and requirements.
15. Any other situation deemed inappropriate by the investigator.

Diagnostic efficacy
To assess the diagnostic feasibility of uPAR-targeted imaging, including: 1) Tumor uptake intensity (SUVmax, SUVmean) and target-to-background ratios (TBR) on ⁶⁸Ga-HT547 PET/CT; 2) Human radiation dosimetry of ¹⁷⁷Lu-HT547 based on SPECT/CT biodistribution data, estimating organ absorbed doses and effective whole-body dose.
Time frame: Screening, Day 1 post-⁶⁸Ga-HT547, Day 1, 3, 5, 7 post-¹⁷⁷Lu-HT547
