RESUMO

Nuclear medicine harnesses radioisotopes for the diagnosis and treatment of disease. While the isotopes 99mTc and 111In have enabled the clinical diagnosis of millions of patients over the past 3 decades, more recent clinical translation of numerous 68Ga/177Lu-based radiopharmaceuticals for diagnostic imaging and therapy underscores the clinical utility of metal-based radiopharmaceuticals in mainstream cancer treatment. In addition to such established radionuclides, advancements in radioisotope production have enabled the production of radionuclides with a broad range of half-lives and emission properties of interest for nuclear medicine. Chemical means to form kinetically inert, in vivo-compatible species that can be modified with disease-targeting vectors is imperative. This presents a challenge for radiosiotopes of elements where the aqueous chemistry is still underdeveloped and poorly understood. Here, we discuss our efforts to date in exploring the aqueous, radioactive coordination chemistry of highly Lewis acidic metal ions and how our discoveries apply to the diagnosis and treatment of cancer in preclinical models of disease. The scope of this Account includes approaches to aqueous coordination of to-date understudied highly Lewis acidic metal ions with radioisotopes of emerging interest and the modulation of well-understood coordination environments of radio-coordination complexes to induce metal-catalyzed reactivity for separation and pro-drug applications.First, we discuss the development of seven-coordinate, small-cavity macrocyclic chelator platform mpatcn/picaga as an exemplary case study, which forms robust complexes with 44Sc/47Sc isotopes. Due to the high chemical hardness and pronounced Lewis acidity of the Sc3+ ion, the displacement of ternary ligand H2O by 18/natF- can be achieved to form an inert Sc-18/natF bond. Corresponding coordination complex natSc-18F is in vivo compatible and forms a theranostic tetrad with corresponding 44Sc/47Sc, 177Lu complexes all exhibiting homologous biodistribution profiles. Another exceptionally hard, highly Lewis acidic ion with underdeveloped aqueous chemistry and emerging interest in nuclear medicine is 45Ti4+. To develop de novo approaches to the mononuclear chelation of this ion under aqueous conditions, we employed a fragment-based bidentate ligand screening approach which identified two leads. The screen successfully predicted the formation of [45Ti][Ti(TREN-CAM)], a Ti-triscatechol complex that exhibits remarkable in vivo stability. Furthermore, the fragment-based screen also identified approaches that enabled solid-phase separation of Ti4+ and Sc3+ of interest in streamlining the isotope production of 45Ti and accessing new ways to separate 44Ti/44Sc for the development of a long-lived generator system. In addition to establishing the inert chelation of Ti4+ and Sc3+, we introduce controlled, metal-induced reactivity of corresponding coordination complexes on macroscopic and radiotracer scales. Metal-mediated autolytic amide bond cleavage (MMAAC) enables the temperature-dependent release of high-molar-activity, ready-to-inject radiopharmaceuticals; cleavage is selectively triggered by coordinated trivalent Lewis acid nat/68Ga3+ or Sc3+. Following the scope of reactivity and mechanistic studies, we validated MMAAC for the synthesis of high-molar-activity radiopharmaceuticals to image molecular targets with low expression and metal-mediated prodrug hydrolysis in vivo.This Account summarizes how developing the aqueous coordination chemistry and tuning the chemical reactivity of metal ions with high Lewis acidity at the macroscopic and tracer scales directly apply to the radiopharmaceutical synthesis with clinical potential.

RESUMO

Short-lived, radioactive lanthanides comprise an emerging class of radioisotopes attractive for biomedical imaging and therapy applications. To deliver such isotopes to target tissues, they must be appended to entities that target antigens overexpressed on the target cell's surface. However, the thermally sensitive nature of biomolecule-derived targeting vectors requires the incorporation of these isotopes without the use of denaturing temperatures or extreme pH conditions; chelating systems that can capture large radioisotopes under mild conditions are therefore highly desirable. Herein, we demonstrate the successful radiolabeling of the lanthanide-binding protein, lanmodulin (LanM), with medicinally relevant radioisotopes: 177Lu, 132/135La and 89Zr. Radiolabeling of the endogenous metal-binding sites of LanM, as well exogenous labeling of a protein-appended chelator, was successfully conducted at 25 °C and pH 7 with radiochemical yields ranging from 20-82%. The corresponding radiolabeled constructs possess good formulation stability in pH 7 MOPS buffer over 24 hours (>98%) in the presence of 2 equivalents of natLa carrier. In vivo experiments with [177Lu]-LanM, [132/135La]-LanM, and a prostate cancer targeting-vector linked conjugate, [132/135La]-LanM-PSMA, reveal that endogenously labeled constructs produce bone uptake in vivo. Exogenous, chelator-tag mediated radiolabeling to produce [89Zr]-DFO-LanM enables further study of the protein's in vivo behavior, demonstrating low bone and liver uptake, and renal clearance of the protein itself. While these results indicate that additional stabilization of LanM is required, this study establishes precedence for the radiochemical labeling of LanM with medically relevant lanthanide radioisotopes.

RESUMO

With the interest in radiometal-containing diagnostic and therapeutic pharmaceuticals increasing rapidly, appropriate ligands to coordinate completely and stably said radiometals is essential. Reported here are two novel, bis(amido)bis(oxinate)diamine ligands, H2amidohox (2,2'-(ethane-1,2-diylbis(((8-hydroxyquinolin-2-yl)methyl)azanediyl))diacetamide) and H2amidoC3hox (2,2'-(propane-1,3-diylbis(((8-hydroxyquinolin-2-yl)methyl)azanediyl))diacetamide), that combine two 8-hydroxyquinoline and amide donor groups and differ by one carbon in their 1,2-ethylenediamine vs. 1,3-diaminopropane backbones, respectively. Both ligands have been thoroughly studied via metal complexation, solution thermodynamics and radiolabeling with three radiometal ions: [nat/64Cu]Cu2+, [nat/111In]In3+, and [nat/203Pb]Pb2+. X-ray crystallography determined the structures of the hexacoordinated Cu2+-ligand complexes, indicating a better fit of Cu2+ to the H2amidohox binding pocket. Concentration dependent radiolabeling with [64Cu]Cu2+ was successfully quantitative as low as 1 µM with H2amidohox and 10 µM with H2amidoC3hox within 5 min at room temperature. However, [64Cu][Cu(amidohox)] maintained higher kinetic inertness against a superoxide dismutase enzyme-challenge assay and ligand challenges compared to the [64Cu][Cu(amidoC3hox)] counterpart. Similarly, H2amidohox had significantly higher radiochemical conversion with both [111In]In3+ (97% at 1 µM) and [203Pb]Pb2+ (97% at 100 µM) under mild conditions compared to H2amidoC3hox (76% with [111In]In3+ at 1 µM and 0% with [203Pb]Pb2+). By studying non-radioactive and radioactive complexation with both ligands, a comprehensive understanding of the coordination differences between two- and three­carbon diamine backbones is discussed. Overall, the ethylenediamine backbone of H2amidohox proves to be superior in rapid, mild radiolabeling and kinetic inertness towards competing ligands and proteins.

RESUMO

Fluorine-18 remains the most widely clinically utilized radionuclide globally for positron emission tomography (PET). The emergence of therapeutic isotopes for the management of disease has produced a pronounced interest in matched, theranostic isotope pairs that can be employed in tandem for the diagnosis and stratification of patients for subsequent radiotherapy. 18 F, however, does not have a suitable therapeutic isotopologue. Here, we demonstrate that the formation of [18 F][Sc-F] ternary complexes is feasible under mild, aqueous conditions, producing chemically robust radiopharmaceuticals in high radiochemical yield and specific activity. A corresponding in vivo study with a cancer-targeting [18 F][Sc-F] tracer indicates excellent in vivo stability and produces exquisite PET image quality, rendering the 18 F/47 Sc isotope pair an unusual, yet chemically matched theranostic pair with excellent potential for clinical translation.
