A LONG-CIRCULATING AGENT FOR PSMA EXPRESSED PROSTATE CARCINOMA

3097 Introduction: Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is a well-known targeting for prostate cancer. PSMA-617 is prostate radionuclide ligand therapy (PRLT) classic idol of NAAG inhibitor-modified. We design a precursor MH-PC-AB-9 that has a spacer link urea-based NAAG inhibitor and albumin binder to change the pharmacokinetics of NAAG inhibitor for PSMA. We use lysine, tyrosine, tyrosine, and glutamic acid (from N-terminal to C-terminal) as a spacer. And 4-(p-Tolyl) butyric acid link the lysine9s side chain as an albumin binder. The chelator is DOTA and the one carboxylic acid of DOTA is conjugating with lysine’ N-terminal. Methods: 20 μg of the precursor was diluted with sodium acetate buffer pH6.0 and added to 0.1 GBq of [In-111] InCl3 in 0.01N HCl. The solution heated to 95 ℃ for 15 min with 500 rpm agitation. Radiochemical purity was established by thin layer chromatography (TLC) and high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). The TLC chamber was loaded with 10 % methanol in water. The Xselect HSS T3 column (4.6 mm x 250 mm) was used and eluted with a linear gradient from 20 to 60% acetonitrile in water (0.1% TFA) over 10 min at a flow rate of 0.8 mL/min. The detector was used gamma radiated detector and UV detector was adjusted for 220 nm. The bioactivity to recognized PSMA of [In-111] In-MH-PC-AB-9 was performed by LNCaP tumor-bearing mice. Results: The chemical purity of [In-111] In-MH-PC-AB-9 was over 95% determined by TLC and HPLC. The retardation factor of free [In-111] In is 0.27 and [In-111] In-MH-PC-AB-9 is 0.95 in TLC. The retention time of free [In-111] In is 3.26 min and [In-111] In-MH-PC-AB-9 is 11.052 min in HPLC. The distribution of [In-111] In-MH-PC-AB-9 in tumor-bearing mice was imaging with nano-SPECT/CT at 1, 24, 72 hours. There still has radioactive accumulated until post-injection 72 hours at the tumor site. Conclusions: The precursor MH-PC-AB-9 has long circulating time was provided by labeling with [In-111] InCl3 and injected into tumor-bearing mice. And the radioactive was increasing with post-injected time. Hence, MH-PC-AB-9 has improved the blood half-life of the NAAG inhibitor more than PSMA-617. Supporting data Figure1.
