- The use of charged linkers in attaching radiohalogens to tumor-seeking biomolecules may improve intracellular retention of the radioactive label after internalization and degradation of targeting proteins. Derivatives of polyhedral boron clusters, such as closo-dodecaborate (2-) anion, might be possible charged linkers. In this study, a bifunctional derivative of closo-dodecaborate, (4-isothiocyanatobenzyl-ammonio)-undecahydro-closo-dodecaborate (DABI) was labeled with positron-emitting nuclide (76)Br (T 1/2 = 16.2 h) and coupled to anti-HER2/neu humanized antibody Trastuzumab. The overall labeling yield at optimized conditions was 80.7 +/- 0.6%. The label was proven to be stable in vitro in physiological and a set of denaturing conditions. The labeled antibody retained its capacity to bind to HER-2/neu antigen expressing cells. The results of the study demonstrated feasibility for using derivatives of closo-dodecaborate in indirect labeling of antibodies for radioimmunoPET.

- [111In]-DTPA-D-Phe1-octreotide (OctreoScan®, Mallinkrodt) is widely used for detection of neuroendocrine tumors and has lately been proposed for radionuclide therapy. We found, using HPLC and a GF-250 column (Zorbax®, Hewlett Packard), that OctreoScan® can be separated in two radiolabeled components of about equal amount. The analytical conditions for a quantitative isolation indicate that the two-peptide components of OctreoScan®have different lipophilicity. The isolated components are stable and do not transform into each other at room temperature during 6 hours (shelf-life of OctreoScan®).

- PURPOSE: Expression of human epidermal growth factor receptor type 2 (HER2) in malignant tumours possesses well-documented prognostic and predictive value. Non-invasive imaging of expression can provide valuable diagnostic information, thereby influencing patient management. Previously, we reported a phage display selection of a small (about 7 kDa) protein, the Affibody molecule Z(HER2:342), which binds HER2 with subnanomolar affinity, and demonstrated the feasibility of targeting of HER2-expressing xenografts using radioiodinated Z(HER2:342). The goal of this study was to develop a method for (99m)Tc labelling of Z(HER2:342) using the MAG3 chelator, which was incorporated into Z(HER2:342) using peptide synthesis, and evaluate the targeting properties of the labelled conjugate. METHODS: MAG3-Z(HER2:342) was assembled using Fmoc/tBu solid phase peptide synthesis. Biochemical characterisation of the agent was performed using RP-HPLC, ESI-MS, biosensor studies and circular dichroism. A procedure for (99m)Tc labelling in the presence of sodium/potassium tartrate was established. Tumour targeting was evaluated by biodistribution study and gamma camera imaging in xenograft-bearing mice. Biodistribution of (99m)Tc-MAG3-Z(HER2:342) and (125)I-para-iodobenzoate -Z(HER2:342) was compared 6 h p.i. RESULTS: Synthetic MAG3-Z(HER2:342) possessed an affinity of 0.2 nM for HER2 receptors. The peptide was labelled with (99m)Tc with an efficiency of about 75-80%. Labelled (99m)Tc-MAG3-Z(HER2:342) retained capacity to bind specifically HER2-expressing SKOV-3 cells in vitro. (99m)Tc-MAG3-Z(HER2:342) showed specific tumour targeting with a contrast similar to a radioiodinated analogue in mice bearing LS174T xenografts. Gamma camera imaging demonstrated clear and specific visualisation of HER2 expression. CONCLUSION: Incorporation of a mercaptoacetyl-containing chelating sequence during chemical synthesis enabled site-specific (99m)Tc labelling of the Z(HER2:342) Affibody molecule with preserved targeting capacity.

110mIn-DTPA-D-Phe1-octreotide for imaging of neuroendocrine tumors with PET
- 2002

- The somatostatin analog diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA)-D-Phe1-octreotide labeled with 111In has been applied extensively for diagnosis of neuroendocrine tumors using SPECT or planar scintigraphy. However, the spatial resolution of planar scintigraphy and SPECT prohibits imaging of small tumors, and the quantification accuracy of both methods is limited. METHODS: We developed a method to prepare the positron-emitting radiopharmaceutical 110mIn-DTPA-D-Phe1-octreotide based on a commercially available kit. Phantom studies were done to investigate and compare the performance of 110mIn PET and 111In SPECT. A clinical imaging study using 110mIn-DTPA-D-Phe1-octreotide and PET was done to investigate the application of this radiopharmaceutical. RESULTS: An almost 3-fold better resolution and much better quantitative capabilities were found for 110mIn PET than for 111In SPECT. The clinical imaging study demonstrated the potential use of 110mIn-octreotide in PET to image tumors and quantify radioactivity uptake in humans using (110m)In-DTPA-D-Phe1-octreotide. CONCLUSION: PET with 110mIn-DTPA-D-Phe1-octreotide greatly improved detection of small tumors and offers a possibility of more accurate quantification of tumor uptake than can be obtained with 111In-DTPA-D-Phe1-octreotide and SPECT.

- To optimize radioimmunotherapy, in vivo information on individual patients, such as radionuclide uptake, kinetics, metabolic patterns and optimal administration methods, is important. An overriding problem is to determine accurately the absorbed dose in the target organ as well as critical organs. Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is a superior technique to quantify regional kinetics in vivo with a spatial resolution better than 1 cm3 and a temporal resolution better than 10 s. However, target molecules often have distribution times of several hours to days. Conventional PET nuclides are not applicable and alternative positron-emitting nuclides with matching half-lives and with suitable labelling properties are thus necessary. Over many years we have systematically developed convenient production methods and labelling techniques of suitable positron nuclides, such as 110In(T(1/2) = 1.15 h), 86Y(T(1/2) = 14 h), 76Br(T(1/2) = 16 h) and 124I(T(1/2) = 4 days). 'Dose planning' can be done, for example, with 86Y- or 124I-labelled ligands before therapy, and 90Y- and 131I-labelled analogues and double-labelling, e.g. with a 86Y/90Y-labelled ligand, can be used to determine the true radioactivity integral from a pure beta-emitting nuclide. The usefulness of these techniques was demonstrated in animal and patient studies by halogen-labelled MAbs and EGF-dextran conjugates and peptides chelated with metal ions.
