Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of pharmaceutical contrast agent technology, and in particular to a novel bismuth-based chelate CT contrast agent, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] Computed tomography (CT) is a common medical imaging technique widely used in clinical diagnosis, especially for observing internal tissues and organs. Because the difference in X-ray attenuation between soft tissues in the human body is relatively small, contrast agents are often used to improve image contrast, thereby enhancing diagnostic accuracy and treatment efficacy assessment. Currently available CT contrast agents are primarily small organic iodine (I)-based contrast agents containing the m-triiodophenyl core structure. However, iodine has a moderate atomic number (Z = 53) and a relatively low K-margin value (33 keV), resulting in limited X-ray attenuation capabilities and low imaging sensitivity, thus requiring larger doses. Furthermore, the use of iodine-based contrast agents is extremely cautious in patients with kidney damage, iodine allergy, or hypothyroidism. Therefore, there is an urgent clinical need to develop non-iodine-based, highly sensitive CT contrast agents.

[0003] Bismuth (Bi) is the non-radioactive metallic element with the highest atomic number. Its atomic number (Z = 83) and high K edge value (91 keV) endow it with excellent X-ray attenuation capabilities, particularly demonstrating great imaging potential in energy-dispersive CT and photon-counting CT. Bismuth also boasts advantages such as high biocompatibility and low cost. Therefore, bismuth is considered an ideal substitute for iodine. Currently reported bismuth-based CT contrast agents are mainly divided into nanomaterials and small-molecule chelates. Bismuth-based nanomaterials exhibit poor reproducibility in synthesis, unclear metabolic mechanisms, and are easily absorbed by the reticuloendothelial system, resulting in non-specific retention and difficulty in metabolism; their biocompatibility requires further investigation. In contrast, small-molecule bismuth-based chelates have well-defined structures, good biocompatibility, and clear metabolic pathways, showing promising prospects for clinical translation. Currently reported small-molecule bismuth-based chelate CT contrast agents are classified according to ionization status into Bi-DTPA, Bi-DOTA, Bi-DOTAPXD ionic chelates, and Bi-HPDO3A non-ionic chelates. Ionic chelates have high osmotic pressure, which can easily lead to safety issues such as nephrotoxicity, vascular endothelial damage, and electrolyte disturbances. Nonionic chelates have an electrically neutral structure, and their osmotic pressure can be significantly reduced, making them the main direction for the development of bismuth-based chelate CT contrast agents. However, only one case of the nonionic bismuth-based chelate Bi-HPDO3A has been reported so far, which is relatively few. Moreover, Bi-HPDO3A has low water solubility, making it difficult to achieve a balance between water solubility, osmotic pressure, and stability, which limits its imaging contrast and overall imaging performance, thus restricting its clinical translation. Summary of the Invention

[0057] The beneficial effects of the embodiments of the present invention are:

[0058] This invention prepares a novel non-ionic small-molecule bismuth-based chelate CT contrast agent. By chelating bismuth ions with specific ligands, a stable small-molecule bismuth-based complex is formed, allowing bismuth to exist in a chelated state. This fully utilizes the X-ray absorption advantage brought by bismuth's high atomic number, while avoiding the potential safety hazards of free bismuth ions, thus obtaining a CT imaging contrast agent that combines high contrast with good biocompatibility.

[0059] The bismuth-based chelate CT contrast agent of the present invention can be prepared on a laboratory scale with strong process controllability. The bismuth-based chelate CT contrast agent adopts a well-defined six-step reaction synthesis route. The reaction conditions of each step are mild and reproducible. The raw materials and intermediates used are easy to obtain and purify, making it suitable for large-scale preparation under laboratory conditions. This lays a good process foundation for subsequent process scale-up, quality control, and industrial production.

[0060] The bismuth-based chelate CT contrast agent prepared in this invention is a nonionic contrast agent with low osmotic pressure, high water solubility, and high stability. Because bismuth(III)2,2',2''-(3,6,9-triazine-1(2,6)-pyridine-cyclodecane-3,6,9-triyl)tricarboxylic acid has a nonionic small molecule structure, it produces little or no free ions in aqueous solution, significantly reducing the osmotic pressure of the solution and thus minimizing osmotic pressure stimulation to the body during injection. Simultaneously, this contrast agent has good water solubility, facilitating the preparation of high-concentration injectable formulations. Its stable chelate structure effectively prevents bismuth ion dissociation, ensuring storage stability and safety for in vivo application.

[0061] The bismuth-based chelate CT contrast agent of the present invention exhibits good biocompatibility and tolerability. By stably chelating bismuth ions into the ligand structure and combining it with a non-ionic, small molecule molecular design, it is less likely to generate ion load or release of metal ions in vivo, effectively reducing the risk of potential toxic side effects and adverse reactions, and improving the safety and patient tolerability during clinical use.

[0062] The bismuth-based chelate CT contrast agent of this invention is suitable for multi-system CT imaging diagnosis. The bismuth-based chelate CT contrast agent of this invention, bismuth(III)2,2',2''-(3,6,9-triazine-1(2,6)-pyridine-cyclodecane-3,6,9-triyl)tricarboxylic acid, possesses excellent X-ray attenuation capabilities and good in vivo distribution characteristics. It can be used for CT imaging examinations of the digestive, urinary, and circulatory systems, clearly displaying relevant tissues and luminal structures, providing reliable contrast enhancement for the imaging diagnosis of systemic diseases, and has broad clinical application prospects.
