Automated preparation of clinical grade [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-CP04, a cholecystokinin-2 receptor agonist, using iPHASE MultiSyn synthesis platform.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Gallium-68 ([68Ga]Ga) labelled radiopharmaceuticals have become a valuable tool in clinical practice using Positron Emission Tomography (PET). These agents are typically produced on-site owing to the short half-life of [68Ga]Ga (68 min), which hinders distant transportation and often cannot comply with Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) in hospital environments due to limited resources or infrastructure constraints. Moreover, full blown GMP production of radiopharmaceuticals under development can be prohibitively expensive. [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-CP04 is a promising peptide for imaging neuroendocrine tumors overexpressing the cholecyctokinin-2 receptor. Automation is an integral process in ensuring the radiopharmaceuticals produced under non-GMP conditions are of a uniform quality for routine clinical use. Herein, we describe the development of an automation platform, the iPHASE MultiSyn radiosynthesizer, to produce 68Ga-labelled DOTA-CP04 for routine clinical provision. RESULTS:The use of the MultiSyn module for 68Ga-labelling of DOTA-CP04 was investigated. [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-CP04, was reproducibly prepared in high (> 70%) decay-corrected yields. [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-CP04 passed all predetermined acceptance criteria for human injection. CONCLUSIONS:[68Ga]Ga-DOTA-CP04 was produced effectively using the MultiSyn module in a consistent and reproducible manner suitable for human injection.

Automated Synthesis of 68Ga-Labeled DOTA-MGS8 and Preclinical Characterization of Cholecystokinin-2 Receptor Targeting.

Project description:The new minigastrin analog DOTA-MGS8 targeting the cholecystokinin-2 receptor (CCK2R) used in this study displays the combination of two site-specific modifications within the C-terminal receptor binding sequence together with an additional N-terminal amino acid substitution preventing fast metabolic degradation. Within this study, the preparation of 68Ga-labeled DOTA-MGS8 was validated using an automated synthesis module, describing the specifications and analytical methods for quality control for possible clinical use. In addition, preclinical studies were carried out to characterize the targeting potential. [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-MGS8 showed a high receptor-specific cell internalization into AR42J rat pancreatic cells (~40%) with physiological expression of rat CCK2R as well as A431-CCK2R cells transfected to stably express human CCK2R (~47%). A favorable biodistribution profile was observed in BALB/c nude mice xenografted with A431-CCK2R cells and mock-transfected A431 cells as control. The high tumor uptake of ~27% IA/g together with low background activity and limited uptake in non-target tissue confirms the potential for high-sensitivity positron emission tomography of stabilized MG analogs in patients with MTC and other CCK2R-related malignancies.

Visualisation of in vivo protein synthesis during mycobacterial infection through [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-puromycin µPET/MRI.

Project description:Radiolabelled puromycin analogues will allow the quantification of protein synthesis through nuclear medicine-based imaging. A particularly useful application could be the non-invasive longitudinal visualisation of mycobacterial activity through direct quantification of puromycin binding. This study assesses the value of [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-puromycin in the visualisation of mycobacteria through positron emission tomography combined with magnetic resonance imaging (µPET/MRI). The radiopharmaceutical was produced by previously published and validated methods. [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-Puromycin imaging was performed on severe immunodeficient mice infected with Bacille Calmette-Guérin-derived M. Bovis (BCG). Acute and chronic infection stages were examined by µPET/MRI. A follow-up group of animals acted as controls (animals bearing S. aureus-derived infection and sterile inflammation) to assess tracer selectivity. [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-puromycin-µPET/MRI images revealed the acute, widespread infection within the right upper shoulder and armpit. Also, [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-puromycin signal sensitivity measured after a 12-week period was lower than that of [18F]FDG-PET in the same animals. A suitable correlation between normalised uptake values (NUV) and gold standard histopathological analysis confirms accurate tracer accumulation in viable bacteria. The radiopharmaceutical showed infection selectivity over inflammation but accumulated in both M. Bovis and S. Aureus, lacking pathogen specificity. Overall, [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-puromycin exhibits potential as a tool for non-invasive protein synthesis visualization, albeit without pathogen selectivity.

Kinetic Modelling of [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-Siglec-9 in Porcine Osteomyelitis and Soft Tissue Infections.

Project description:[68Ga]Ga-DOTA-Siglec-9 is a positron emission tomography (PET) radioligand for vascular adhesion protein 1 (VAP-1), a protein involved in leukocyte trafficking. The tracer facilitates the imaging of inflammation and infection. Here, we studied the pharmacokinetic modelling of [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-Siglec-9 in osteomyelitis and soft tissue infections in pigs. Eight pigs with osteomyelitis and soft tissue infections in the right hind limb were dynamically PET scanned for 60 min along with arterial blood sampling. The fraction of radioactivity in the blood accounted for by the parent tracer was evaluated with radio-high-performance liquid chromatography. One- and two-tissue compartment models were used for pharmacokinetic evaluation. Post-mortem soft tissue samples from one pig were analysed with anti-VAP-1 immunofluorescence. In each analysis, the animal's non-infected left hind limb was used as a control. Tracer uptake was elevated in soft tissue infections but remained low in osteomyelitis. The kinetics of [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-Siglec-9 followed a reversible 2-tissue compartment model. The tracer metabolized quickly; however, taking this into account, produced more ambiguous results. Infected soft tissue samples showed endothelial cell surface expression of the Siglec-9 receptor VAP-1. The kinetics of [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-Siglec-9 uptake in porcine soft tissue infections are best described by the 2-tissue compartment model.

Automated synthesis of [68Ga]oxine, improved preparation of 68Ga-labeled erythrocytes for blood-pool imaging, and preclinical evaluation in rodents.

Project description:Radiolabeled erythrocytes have multiple applications in nuclear medicine, including blood pool imaging. Historically they have been labeled with SPECT radionuclides. A PET blood pool imaging agent is highly desirable as it would improve clinical applications with better image quality and resolution, higher sensitivity, and dynamic scanning capabilities. With the coming of age of modern 68Ge/68Ga generator systems, gallium-68 is now widely accessible. In this paper we describe an updated method for the preparation of 68Ga-labeled erythrocytes and their preliminary use in rodent blood pool imaging. A novel automated synthesis of [68Ga]oxine using a 68Ga/68Ge generator and automated synthesis module is reported. [68Ga]Oxine was synthesized in 50 ± 5% (n = 3) non-decay corrected radiochemical yield and >99% radiochemical purity. Rat and human erythrocytes were successfully labeled with the complex in 42% RCY, and the 68Ga-labeled erythrocytes have been shown to clearly image the blood pool in a healthy rat. Human erythrocytes labelled with [68Ga]oxine were shown to be viable up to 2 hours post-labelling, and washout of the radiolabel was minimal up to 1 hour post-labelling. Further optimization of the labeling method to translate for use in human cardiac and oncologic blood pool PET imaging studies, is underway.

Fully-automated production of [68Ga]Ga-PentixaFor on the module Modular Lab-PharmTracer.

Project description:BACKGROUND:PentixaFor is a promising radiopharmaceutical for positron emission tomography in the detection of different tumor entities and other diseases. Until now, the synthesis of [68Ga]Ga-PentixaFor was reported for the automated synthesis module from Scintomics® only. Our aim was to evaluate the automated synthesis of this radiopharmaceutical on a different module in order to make it available for a broader community. RESULTS:The synthesis of [68Ga]Ga-PentixaFor with different amounts of PentixaFor (50 μg, 30 μg and 20 μg) on the Modular Lab PharmTracer (MLPT) from Eckert & Ziegler with the already established synthesis template for [68Ga]Ga-DOTATOC yielded best results with 50 μg PentixaFor for clinical multi-dose application. All different quality control parameters tested (e.g. sterility, stability and radiochemical purity) were in accordance with the European Pharmacopoeia. CONCLUSIONS:[68Ga]Ga-PentixaFor was successfully synthesized fully-automated on the synthesis module Modular Lab PharmTracer and can be used for multi-dose application in clinical settings.

Synthesis of a Fluorescently Labeled 68Ga-DOTA-TOC Analog for Somatostatin Receptor Targeting.

Project description:Fluorescently labeled imaging agents can identify surgical margins in real-time to help achieve complete resections and minimize the likelihood of local recurrence. However, photon attenuation limits fluorescence-based imaging to superficial lesions or lesions that are a few millimeters beneath the tissue surface. Contrast agents that are dual-labeled with a radionuclide and fluorescent dye can overcome this limitation and combine quantitative, whole-body nuclear imaging with intraoperative fluorescence imaging. Using a multimodality chelation (MMC) scaffold, IRDye 800CW was conjugated to the clinically used somatostatin analog, 68Ga-DOTA-TOC, to produce the dual-labeled analog, 68Ga-MMC(IRDye 800CW)-TOC, with high yield and specific activity. In vitro pharmacological assays demonstrated retention of receptor-targeting properties for the dual-labeled compound with robust internalization that was somatostatin receptor (SSTR) 2-mediated. Biodistribution studies in mice identified the kidneys as the primary excretion route for 68Ga-MMC(IRDye 800CW)-TOC, along with clearance via the reticuloendothelial system. Higher uptake was observed in most tissues compared to 68Ga-DOTA-TOC but decreased as a function of time. The combination of excellent specificity for SSTR2-expressing cells and suitable biodistribution indicate potential application of 68Ga-MMC(IRDye 800CW)-TOC for intraoperative detection of SSTR2-expressing tumors.

Preparation, biological characterization and preliminary human imaging studies of 68Ga-DOTA-IBA.

Project description:PurposeIn this study, DOTA-IBA was radiolabeled with 68Ga and we determined the optimum labelling conditions and assessed the biological properties of 68Ga-DOTA-IBA. We investigated the biodistribution of 68Ga-DOTA-IBA in normal animals and undertook PET/CT imaging in humans. Finally, we explored the feasibility 68Ga-DOTA-IBA as a bone imaging agent and demonstrated its potential for the therapeutic release of 177Lu/225Ac-DOTA-IBA.MethodsThe controlled variables method was used to assess the impact of variables on the radiochemical purity of 68Ga-DOTA-IBA. The biological properties of 68Ga-DOTA-IBA were investigated.68Ga-DOTA-IBA micro-PET/CT imaging was performed on animals. Volunteers were recruited for 68Ga-DOTA-IBA imaging and data were compared to 99mTc-MDP imaging studies to calculate the target to non-target ratio (T/NT) of the lesions.ResultsThe prepared 68Ga-DOTA-IBA had a radiochemical purity of >97% and demonstrated good biological properties with a good safety profile in normal mice. PET/CT imaging of the animals showed rapid blood clearance with high contrast between the bone and stroma. Human imaging showed that 68Ga-DOTA-IBA could detect more lesions compared to 99mTc-MDP and had a higher targeted to untargeted ratio.Conclusions68Ga-DOTA-IBA is an osteophilic radiopharmaceutical that can be synthesized using a simple labelling method. 68Ga-DOTA-IBA has high radiochemical purity and is stable in vitro stability. It is rapidly cleared from the blood, has low toxicity and has strong targeting to the bone with long retention times. We also found that it is rapidly cleared in non-target tissues and has high contrast on whole-body bone imaging. 68Ga-DOTA-IBA PET/CT has potential as a novel bone imaging bone modality in patients with metastatic disease.

A [68Ga]Ga-DOTANOC PET/CT Radiomic Model for Non-Invasive Prediction of Tumour Grade in Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumours.

Project description:Predicting grade 1 (G1) and 2 (G2) primary pancreatic neuroendocrine tumour (panNET) is crucial to foresee panNET clinical behaviour. Fifty-one patients with G1-G2 primary panNET demonstrated by pre-surgical [68Ga]Ga-DOTANOC PET/CT and diagnostic conventional imaging were grouped according to the tumour grade assessment method: histology on the whole excised primary lesion (HS) or biopsy (BS). First-order and second-order radiomic features (RFs) were computed from SUV maps for the whole tumour volume on HS. The RFs showing the lowest p-values and the highest area under the curve (AUC) were selected. Three radiomic models were assessed: A (trained on HS, validated on BS), B (trained on BS, validated on HS), and C (using the cross-validation on the whole dataset). The second-order normalized homogeneity and entropy was the most effective RFs couple predicting G2 and G1. The best performance was achieved by model A (test AUC = 0.90, sensitivity = 0.88, specificity = 0.89), followed by model C (median test AUC = 0.87, sensitivity = 0.83, specificity = 0.82). Model B performed worse. Using HS to train a radiomic model leads to the best prediction, although a "hybrid" (HS+BS) population performs better than biopsy-only. The non-invasive prediction of panNET grading may be especially useful in lesions not amenable to biopsy while [68Ga]Ga-DOTANOC heterogeneity might recommend FDG PET/CT.

[68Ga]Ga-DFO-c(RGDyK): Synthesis and Evaluation of Its Potential for Tumor Imaging in Mice.

Project description:Angiogenesis has a pivotal role in tumor growth and the metastatic process. Molecular imaging was shown to be useful for imaging of tumor-induced angiogenesis. A great variety of radiolabeled peptides have been developed to target αvβ3 integrin, a target structure involved in the tumor-induced angiogenic process. The presented study aimed to synthesize deferoxamine (DFO)-based c(RGD) peptide conjugate for radiolabeling with gallium-68 and perform its basic preclinical characterization including testing of its tumor-imaging potential. DFO-c(RGDyK) was labeled with gallium-68 with high radiochemical purity. In vitro characterization including stability, partition coefficient, protein binding determination, tumor cell uptake assays, and ex vivo biodistribution as well as PET/CT imaging was performed. [68Ga]Ga-DFO-c(RGDyK) showed hydrophilic properties, high stability in PBS and human serum, and specific uptake in U-87 MG and M21 tumor cell lines in vitro and in vivo. We have shown here that [68Ga]Ga-DFO-c(RGDyK) can be used for αvβ3 integrin targeting, allowing imaging of tumor-induced angiogenesis by positron emission tomography.
