ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
As sigma receptors are abundantly expressed on different types of cancer cells, several radiolabeled sigma receptor ligands have been developed for cancer imaging and therapy. Previously, we synthesized and evaluated radioiodinated aza-vesamicol derivatives, [125I]pIC3NV, [125I]mIC2N5V, and [125I]mIC3N5V. They accumulated in tumors, and [125I]mIC2N5V and [125I]mIC3N5V showed higher tumor to non-target tissue ratios than [125I]pIC3NV. Therefore, we synthesized and evaluated the corresponding 211At-labeled compounds, [211At]mAtC2N5V and [211At]mAtC3N5V, for targeted alpha therapy (TAT).METHODS:
[211At]mAtC2N5V and [211At]mAtC3N5V were prepared by the standard method of electrophilic astatodestannylation of the corresponding trimethylstannyl precursors. Cellular uptake experiments, and biodistribution experiments and therapeutic experiments in tumor-bearing mice were performed.RESULTS:
The radiochemical yields of [211At]mAtC2N5V and [211At]mAtC3N5V were 45.5 ± 14.4% and 56.9 ± 13.8%, respectively. After HPLC purification, their radiochemical purities were over 95%. [211At]mAtC2N5V and [211At]mAtC3N5V showed high uptake in DU-145 cells. They demonstrated high accumulation in tumors (6.9 ± 1.4%injected dose/g and 5.1 ± 1.4%injected dose/g at 1 h, respectively) and similar biodistribution tendencies compared with the corresponding 125I-labeled compounds. A single injection of [211At]mAtC2N5V (0.48 MBq) or [211At]mAtC3N5V (0.48 MBq) significantly inhibited tumor growth.CONCLUSION:
These results indicated that [211At]mAtC2N5V and [211At]mAtC3N5V could be potential candidates for TAT.Palavras-chave
