RESUMO
Anchoring an imidazole-di-tert-butyl-arylsilane possessing an azido group to a polystyrene resin provided a heterogeneous precursor that was radiolabeled easily using aqueous [18 F]fluoride. After optimizing the conditions (i.e., using DMSO as solvent and heating at 160°C for 15 min), the desired [18 F]fluorosilane was obtained in 24% radiochemical yield (RCY) and 78% radiochemical purity (RCP) using solid-phase extraction as sole purification. Then, this compound was conjugated by strain-promoted alkyne-azide cycloaddition to a model single-variable domain possessing a cyclooctyne tag, yielding to the desired 18 F-labeled bioconjugate in 2% RCY and >95% RCP after purification by a size exclusion chromatography.

Aiming for potential applications in positron emission tomography, fully automated productions of 18F-labelled bioconjugates were achieved using heterogenous precursors obtained by anchoring imidazole-di-tert-butyl-arylsilanes to a polystyrene resin. The reactions were performed using either "batch" or "flow" procedures, avoiding both the time-consuming azeotropic drying and HPLC purifications usually required.

PURPOSE: Preclinical in vivo nuclear imaging of mice offers an enabling perspective to evaluate drug efficacy at optimal dose and schedule. In this study, we interrogated sufficient estrogen receptor occupancy and degradation for the selective estrogen receptor degrader (SERD) compound SAR439859 using molecular imaging and histological techniques. MATERIAL AND METHODS: [18F]FluoroEstradiol positron emission tomography (FES-PET), [18F]FluoroDeoxyGlucose (FDG) PET, and [18F]FluoroThymidine (FLT) PET were investigated as early pharmacodynamic, tumor metabolism, and tumor proliferation imaging biomarkers, respectively, in mice bearing subcutaneous MCF7-Y537S mutant ERα+ breast cancer model treated with the SERD agent SAR439859. ER expression and proliferation index Ki-67 were assessed by immunohistochemistry (IHC). The combination of palbociclib CDK 4/6 inhibitor with SAR439859 was tested for its potential synergistic effect on anti-tumor activity. RESULTS: After repeated SAR439859 oral administration over 4 days, FES tumoral uptake (SUVmean) decreases compared to baseline by 35, 57, and 55% for the 25 mg/kg qd, 12.5 mg/kg bid and 5 mg/kg bid treatment groups, respectively. FES tumor uptake following SAR439859 treatment at different doses correlates with immunohistochemical scoring for ERα expression. No significant difference in FDG uptake is observed after SAR439859 treatments over 3 days. FLT accumulation in tumor is significantly decreased when palbociclib is combined to SAR439859 (- 64%) but not different from the group dosed with palbociclib alone (- 46%). The impact on proliferation is corroborated by Ki-67 IHC data for both groups of treatment. CONCLUSIONS: In our preclinical studies, dose-dependent inhibition of FES tumoral uptake confirmed target engagement of SAR439859 to ERα. FES-PET thus appears as a relevant imaging biomarker for measuring non-invasively the impact of SAR439859 on tumor estrogen receptor occupancy. This study further validates the use of FLT-PET to directly visualize the anti-proliferative tumor effect of the palbociclib CDK 4/6 inhibitor alone and in combination with SAR439859.
RESUMO
The synthesis of 2-amino-5-[18F]fluoropyridines was achieved in 8-85% yields by palladium-catalyzed reaction of 2-bromo-5-[18F]fluoropyridine with piperidine, dimethylamine, butylamine, methylpiperazine, benzylamine, aniline and 3-aminopyridine. 2-Bromo-5-[18F]fluoropyridine was obtained by radiofluorination of anisyl(2-bromopyridinyl-5)iodonium triflate (88% yield). The radiofluorination step was performed under "minimalist" conditions to guarantee a successful subsequent amination reaction.
RESUMO
A direct regio-, diastereo-, and enantiocontrolled access to alpha,beta-unsaturated delta-lactones is described, based on the reaction of a silyl dienolate and an aldehyde in the presence of 10 % of Carreira's catalyst. The scope and limitations of this reaction, as well as mechanistic insights concerning the reactivity of an allyl copper species, are discussed.
