Novel Radioiodinated and Radiofluorinated Analogues of FT-2102 for SPECT or PET Imaging of mIDH1 Mutant Tumours.

ABSTRACT: Isocitrate dehydrogenases (IDHs) are metabolic enzymes commonly mutated in human cancers (glioma, acute myeloid leukaemia, chondrosarcoma, and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma). These mutated variants of IDH (mIDH) acquire a neomorphic activity, namely, conversion of α-ketoglutarate to the oncometabolite D-2-hydroxyglutarate involved in tumourigenesis. Thus, mIDHs have emerged as highly promising therapeutic targets, and several mIDH specific inhibitors have been developed. However, the evaluation of mIDH status, currently performed by biopsy, is essential for patient stratification and thus treatment and follow-up. We report herein the development of new radioiodinated and radiofluorinated analogues of olutasidenib (FT-2102) as tools for noninvasive single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) or positron emission tomography (PET) imaging of mIDH1 up- and dysregulation in tumours. Nonradiolabelled derivatives 2 and 3 halogenated at position 6 of the quinolinone scaffold were synthesised and tested in vitro for their inhibitory potencies and selectivities in comparison with the lead compound FT-2102. Using a common organotin precursor, (S)-[¹²⁵I]2 and (S)-[¹⁸F]3 were efficiently synthesised by radio-iododemetallation and copper-mediated radiofluorination, respectively. Both radiotracers were stable at room temperature in saline or DPBS solution and at 37 °C in mouse serum, allowing future planning of their in vitro and in vivo evaluations in glioma and chondrosarcoma models.

Project description:One of the most clinically relevant molecular aberrations in breast cancer is overexpression of human epidermal growth factor receptor type 2 (HER2). We aimed to develop a radiolabeled tyrosine kinase inhibitor for HER2-targeted breast cancer imaging. In this study, a radioiodinated analog (125/131I-IBA-CP) of the HER2-selective inhibitor CP724,714 was prepared and evaluated in HER2-positive or -negative subcutaneous human breast cancer xenografts. Methods: The CP724,714 analog IBA-CP was synthesized and assayed for its inhibitory activities against HER2 and 6 other tyrosine kinases. 125/131I-IBA-CP was prepared using a copper-mediated radioiodination method with enhanced labeling yield and molar activity. In vitro biologic activity, including specific and nonspecific binding of 131I-IBA-CP to its HER2 kinase target, was assessed in different cell lines. In vivo small-animal 125I-IBA-CP SPECT imaging and biodistribution studies were conducted on mice bearing HER2-positive, HER2-negative, or epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-positive tumors. Nonradioactive IBA-CP and the EGFR inhibitor erlotinib were used as blocking agents to investigate the binding specificity and selectivity of 125/131I-IBA-CP toward HER2 in vitro and in vivo. Additionally, 125/131I-ICP was prepared by direct radioiodination of CP724,714 for comparison with 125/131I-IBA-CP. Results: IBA-CP displayed superior in vitro inhibitory activity (half-maximal inhibitory concentration, 16 nM) and selectivity for HER2 over 6 other cancer-related tyrosine kinases. 125/131I-IBA-CP was prepared in a typical radiochemical yield of about 65% (decay-corrected), radiochemical purity of more than 98%, and molar activity of 42 GBq/μmol at the end of synthesis. SPECT imaging revealed significantly higher uptake of 125I-IBA-CP than of 125I-ICP in the HER2-positive MDA-MB-453 tumors. Uptake in the HER2-negative MCF-7 tumors was much lower. Binding of 125I-IBA-CP in the MDA-MB-453 tumors was blocked by coinjection with an excess amount of IBA-CP, but not by erlotinib. Conclusion: The radiolabeled HER2-selective inhibitor 125/131I-IBA-CP is a promising probe for in vivo detection of HER2-positive tumors.

Project description:PurposeHepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains one of the most challenging diseases worldwide. Glypican-3 (GPC-3) is a cell surface proteoglycan that is overexpressed on the membrane of HCC cells. The purpose of this study was to develop a target-specific radiofluorinated peptide for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging of GPC3 expression in hepatocellular carcinoma.ProceduresNew GPC3-binding peptides (GP2076 and GP2633) were radiolabeled with F-18 using Al[18F]F labeling approach, and the resulting PET probes were subsequently subject to biological evaluations. A highly hydrophilic linker was incorporated into GP2633 with an aim of reducing the probe uptake in liver and increasing tumor-to-liver (T/L) contrast. Both GP2076 and GP2633 were radiolabeled using Al[18F]F chelation approach. The binding affinity, octanol/water partition coefficient, cellular uptake and efflux, and stability of both F-18 labeled peptides were tested. Tumor targeting efficacy and biodistribution of Al[18F]F-GP2076 and Al[18F]F-GP2633 were determined by PET imaging in HCC-bearing mice. Immunohistochemistry analyses were performed to compare the findings from PET scans.ResultsAl[18F]F-GP2076 and Al[18F]F-GP2633 were rapidly radiosynthesized within 20 min in excellent radiochemical purity (> 97 %). Al[18F]F-GP2633 was determined to be more hydrophilic than Al[18F]F-GP2076 in terms of octanol/water partition coefficient. Both Al[18F]F-GP2076 and Al[18F]F-GP2633 demonstrated good in vitro and in vivo stability and binding specificity to GPC3-positive HepG2 cells. For PET imaging, Al[18F]F-GP2633 exhibited enhanced uptake in HepG2 tumor (%ID/g 3.37 ± 0.35 vs. 2.13 ± 0.55, P = 0.031) and reduced accumulation in liver (%ID/g 1.70 ± 0.26 vs. 3.70 ± 0.98, P = 0.027) at 60 min post-injection (pi) as compared to Al[18F]F-GP2076, resulting in significantly improved tumor-to-liver (T/L) contrast (ratio 2.00 ± 0.18 vs. 0.59 ± 0.14, P = 0.0004). Higher uptake of Al[18F]F-GP2633 in GPC3-positive HepG2 tumor was observed as compared to GPC3-negative McA-RH7777 tumor (%ID/g 3.37 ± 0.35 vs. 1.64 ± 0.03, P = 0.001) at 60 min pi, confirming GPC3-specific accumulation of Al[18F]F-GP2633 in HepG2 tumor.ConclusionThe results demonstrated that Al[18F]F-GP2633 is a promising probe for PET imaging of GPC3 expression in HCC. Convenient preparation, excellent GPC3 specificity in HCC, and favorable excretion profile of Al[18F]F-GP2633 warrant further investigation for clinical translation. PET imaging with a GPC3-specific probe would provide clinicians with vital diagnostic information that could have a significant impact on the management of HCC patients.

Project description:A divalent knottin containing two separate integrin binding epitopes (RGD) in the adjacent loops, 3-4A, was recently developed and reported in our previous publication. In the current study, 3-4A was radiofluorinated with a 4-nitrophenyl 2-(18)F-fluoropropinate ((18)F-NFP) group and the resulting divalent positron emission tomography (PET) probe, (18)F-FP-3-4A, was evaluated as a novel imaging probe to detect integrin αvβ3 positive tumors in living animals. Knottin 3-4A was synthesized by solid phase peptide synthesis, folded, and site-specifically conjugated with (18/19)F-NFP to produce the fluorinated peptide (18/19)F-fluoropropinate-3-4A ((18/19)F-FP-3-4A). The stability of (18)F-FP-3-4A was tested in both phosphate buffered saline (PBS) buffer and mouse serum. Cell uptake assays of the radiolabeled peptides were performed using U87MG cells. In addition, small animal PET imaging and biodistribution studies of (18)F-FP-3-4A were performed in U87MG tumor-bearing mice. The receptor targeting specificity of the radiolabeled peptide was also verified by coinjecting the probe with a blocking peptide cyclo(RGDyK). Our study showed that (18)F-FP-3-4A exhibited excellent stability in PBS buffer (pH 7.4) and mouse serum. Small animal PET imaging and biodistribution data revealed that (18)F-FP-3-4A exhibited rapid and good tumor uptake (3.76 ± 0.59% ID/g and 2.22 ± 0.62% ID/g at 0.5 and 1 h, respectively). (18)F-FP-3-4A was rapidly cleared from the normal tissues, resulting in excellent tumor-to-normal tissue contrasts. For example, liver uptake was only 0.39 ± 0.07% ID/g and the tumor to liver ratio was 5.69 at 1 h p.i. Furthermore, coinjection of cyclo(RGDyK) with (18)F-FP-3-4A significantly inhibited tumor uptake (0.41 ± 0.12 vs 1.02 ± 0.19% ID/g at 2.5 h) in U87MG xenograft models, demonstrating specific accumulation of the probe in the tumor. In summary, the divalent probe (18)F-FP-3-4A is characterized by rapid and high tumor uptake and excellent tumor-to-normal tissue ratios. (18)F-FP-3-4A is a highly promising knottin based PET probe for translating into clinical imaging of tumor angiogenesis.
