A Corrigendum on
Radiochemical and biological assessments of a PSMA-I&S cold kit for fast and inexpensive 99mTc-labeling for SPECT imaging and radioguided surgery in prostate cancer

by Fuscaldi LL, Sobral DV, Durante ACR, Mendonça FF, Miranda ACC, Salgueiro C, de Castiglia SG, Yamaga LYI, da Cunha ML, Malavolta L, de Barboza MF and Mejia J (2023). Front. Chem. 11:1271176. doi: 10.3389/fchem.2023.1271176

In the published article, there was an error in 2 Materials and methods, 2.10 Clinical Case, paragraph 1. This work includes a SPECT scan of a human patient, which was said to have received approval from the institutional ethics committee. However, the project’s protocol number does not correspond to the indicated patient. This sentence previously stated:

“The study received approval from the institutional ethics committee (CAAE: 66235122.0.0000.0071).”

The corrected sentence appears below:

“The pilot study received approval from the institutional ethics committee and the patient signed the corresponding informed consent to use the SPECT images for research purposes.”

Consequently, there was also an error in the Ethics statement. The original statement was as follows:

“The animal study was approved by Ethics Committee on Animal Use of the Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein (protocol #4005/19). The study was conducted in accordance with the local legislation and institutional requirements. The human study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein (CAAE: 66235122.0.0000.0071) and informed consent was obtained from all individual participants included in this study.”

The corrected statement appears below:

“The animal study was approved by Ethics Committee on Animal Use of the Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein (protocol #4005/19). The study was conducted in accordance with the local legislation and institutional requirements. The pilot human study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein and informed consent was obtained from the participant included in this study.”

The authors apologize for these errors and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
