Notes

Added at stage 21 from therapy-discovered.xlsx (bulk PubMed search by isotope/therapy-type/known-agent, not individually researched yet) -- 7 articles found. Target/mechanism, clinical application, indications, approval and precursor fields still need per-agent research and are intentionally left empty. Diagnostic pair signal at discovery: YES - Ga-68, In-111. Compound class inferred from precursor name (not stated outright) -- PMID 38124121: 'RM2 (DOTA-Pip5-d-Phe6-Gln7-Trp8-Ala9-Val10-Gly11-His12-Sta13-Leu14-NH2)'.
