Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging, and in particular to RGD dimer compounds and methods for their preparation and use. [Background technology]
[0002] Integrin α v β3 is a heterodimeric receptor located on the cell surface. It is hardly expressed on normal vascular endothelial cells or epithelial cells, but is highly expressed on the cell surface of various solid tumors, including lung cancer, osteosarcoma, neuroblastoma, breast cancer, prostate cancer, bladder cancer, glioblastoma, and invasive melanoma, and is also highly expressed on the membrane of neovascular endothelial cells in all tumor tissues. Integrin α v These findings suggest that β3 plays an important role in tumor growth, invasion, and metastasis. Polypeptides containing the arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD) sequence interact with integrin α v RGD peptides labeled with various radionuclides have been successfully used in imaging studies of various tumor-bearing animal models. 18 F-Galacto-RGD is the first non-invasive integrin α to enter clinical trials v It has become a β3-targeted tumor imaging agent and has been used for PET diagnosis in tumor patients, and has shown good biological distribution and specific target recognition in clinical trials for glioblastoma.
[0003] However, existing radionuclide-labeled RGD cyclic peptides have short blood half-lives and rapid metabolic clearance, making it impossible to maintain therapeutic levels at tumor sites. Higher doses or frequent repeated administration are required to achieve therapeutic goals, increasing the potential for adverse side effects. Polyethylene glycol modification slows the clearance rate of RGD cyclic peptides, but can also cause immunogenicity and reduce bioavailability.
[0004] As described above, the radionuclide-labeled RGD cyclic peptides in the prior art have limitations such as low tumor uptake and short retention time, which makes it impossible to achieve the therapeutic goal. If the drug is used at a high dose and frequently to achieve the therapeutic goal, there is a risk of increased side effects, making it difficult to widely use in clinical practice.
