The aim of this study was the synthesis and pharmacokinetic selection of a best melanin-targeting ligand for addressing anticancer agents to pigmented melanoma. Seven quinoxaline carboxamide derivatives were synthesized and radiolabeled with iodine-125. Biodistribution studies of compounds [ (125) I]1a-g performed in melanoma-bearing mice tumor showed significant tumor uptake (range 2.43-5.68%ID/g) within 1 h after i.v. injection. Fast clearance of the radioactivity from the nontarget organs mai ...[more]
