The government provided support for this invention. They have certain rights in that regard. [Background technology]
[0003] Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is used for imaging and treatment of prostate and other types of cancer. It is increasingly being recognized as a highly feasible target for this purpose (Ghosh and Heston) ,2004;Milowsky et al.,2007;Olson et al., (2007). PSMA, particularly hormone-resistant, is used in prostate cancer and metastasis. Significantly overexpressed (Ghosh and Heston, 2004; Milowsky) et al., 2007). PSMA is expressed in most solid tumors and neovascular tumors. It is also known as (Haffner et al., 2012; Haffner et al., 2009). Imaging PSMA allows for the study of androgen signaling. Evans et al., 2011) and response to taxane therapy (Hillier Insights can be gained regarding et al., 2011). Previous research has shown that Experimental models of prostate cancer (Schulke et al., 2003; Mease et al.) al., 2013; Banerjee et al., 2010) and clinics (Cho et al.,2012;Kulkarni et al.,2014;Zechma Functionalized cysteine-glutamate or lysine- We are performing radionuclide imaging targeting PSMA using glutamate urea. Large molecular fragments, such as radioactive metals ( 99m Tc, 68 Ga, 111 In, 86 Y, 20 3 Pb, 64 Cu complex (Banerjee, Pullambhatla, Shallal ,et al.,2011;Banerjee,Pullambhatla,Byun, et al., 2011; Banerjee et al., 2008) and nanoparticles ( (Chandran et al., 2008; Kam et al., 2012) To achieve this, a long linker is placed between the large molecule and the target urea, thereby targeting PSMA. The binding was maintained. While not attempting to confine to a specific theory, the ligand-binding site is extracellular. It is estimated that there is a high receptor concentration per cell (approximately 3.2 μM / cell volume). Therefore, PSMA is considered suitable as a biomarker for MR molecular imaging. It was done.
[0004] MR imaging is a clinical technique for performing high-resolution anatomical and functional imaging. It is a non-invasive diagnostic tool related to [the condition]. Molecular MR imaging is used in vivo. Enables visualization of biological markers (Artemov, Mori, Okollie) et al.,2003;Artemov,Mori,Ravi,Bhujwalla ,et al.,2003;Konda et al.,2001;Lanza et al. al., 2004; Huang, et al., 2013). Gd(III) type cont. Last-chain drugs are widely accepted by clinicians because they are easy to administer and also T1-weighted. This is because it allows for positive contrast. The design of high-relaxation contrast agents has advanced. However, sensitivity remains a limiting factor for molecular MR imaging. Regarding its use in imaging applications (specifically, imaging of receptor or protein expression), Gd(III) type contrast agents rarely exceed the detection limit (Artem ov,Mori,Okollie et al.,2003;Artemov,Mori ,Ravi,Bhujwalla,et al.,2003;Konda et al. ,2001;Lanza et al.,2004;Huang et al.,201 3) By using signal amplification methods, MR complements radionuclide-based techniques, specifically molecular MRI. This may be a highly sensitive modality for imaging (Aime et al.) .,2004;Major et al.,2009;Song et al.,200 8; Artemov, 2003). Even if the sensitivity of the target substance can be improved by amplification, simple The shift from low molecular weight compounds to larger complexes alters the pharmacokinetic profile of substances. There is a possibility that it will change significantly (Artemov, Mori, Okollie e t al.,2003;Artemov,Mori,Ravi,Bhujwalla,e t al.,2003;Konda et al.,2001;Lanza et al. .,2004; Huang, et al.,2013). Sherry et al. found it to be extremely high Binding affinity (K d ) has the ability to minimize the amount of substance required for detection by MR. We addressed the sensitivity problem by creating a contrast agent that works (Hanaoka et al., 2008; De Leon-Rodriguez et al., 2010) As one solution to enable MR-based receptor imaging, It was devised to combine a body-specific high-affinity ligand with the detection polymer Gd(III). (Wu et al. 2012).
[0005] An example of this approach is using a multimer Gd-dendron with a high longitudinal relaxation (r1) value. This includes molecular imaging of VEGFR2 through preparation (De Leon-Ro (driguez et al., 2010). In other polymeric materials, at higher magnetic field strengths... Improved r1 values have been reported, but this is because MR is in both experimental and clinical settings. This is because the magnetic field at Meising is getting stronger (Masterone 2011). By optimizing the degree of relaxation in the field, a larger signal-to-noise ratio and contrast-to-noise ratio can be achieved. This offers advantages such as a higher signal-to-noise ratio (SNR / CNR), higher spatial resolution, and shorter gaps. It also comes with the benefit of free time (Rooney 2007). The combination, that is, using the high-affinity target portion together with a highly sensitive multimer contrast agent. This involves targeting MR imaging of cells and tissues expressing prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA). This provides a logical basis for investigating the issue.
[0006] Furthermore, urea-based substances may also be used for radiotherapy of lesions containing PSMA using radionuclides. It is thought that this might be possible. In fact, 131 I] MIP1095 ((S)-2- (3-((S)-1-carboxy-5-(3-(4- 131 I] iodophenyl)ureido)phenyl)ureido)pentaanedioic acid) (Zechmann et al., 2014 ) and and 177 Lu-labeled PSMA targeting substances (Kulkarni et al., 2014) clinical studies using that approach are in progress for the treatment of castration-resistant prostate cancer. This approach is similar to radioimmunotherapy (RIT), which has been proven to be extremely effective in the treatment of lymphoma with two commercially available products routinely incorporated into clinical practice. However, due to the use of radiolabeled antibodies for imaging, RIT is associated with difficulties, including a long circulation time, unpredictable biological effects, and in some cases the need for a pretargeting method. Furthermore, antibodies may be less accessible to tumors than pharmacologically manipulable low-molecular-weight substances. Therefore, low-molecular-weight compounds with high binding affinity for PSMA are still needed for tumor imaging and radiotherapy. and in some cases the need for a pretargeting method.

[0007] Positron-emitting radionuclides 86 Y (half-life [t 1 / 2 = 14.74 hours, β + = 33%, E β+ = 664 keV) is an attractive isotope for molecular imaging (Nayak and Brechbiel, 2011). Yttrium-86 is 86Sr(p,n) 86 It can be easily prepared using a small medical cyclotron with the Y nuclear reaction (Yoo e (t al., 2005). High-energy β - Radiator 90 Y(t 1 / 2 = 64.06 hours, β - = 72%, E β- (=2.288 MeV) is widely used in internal radiation therapy (Wi Tzig et al., 2003; Bodei et al., 2004), 86 Y is 90 It is ideal for dose estimation of Y-labeled radiotherapy (Helisch et al. .,2004). 86 Antibodies and peptides radiolabeled with Y are 90 Same properties as those labeled with Y Because it has the properties of radiation therapy, 90 It is possible to accurately estimate the absorbed dose for Y. (Nayak and Brechbiel, 2011; Palm et al., 2 003). 177 Lu 90 Beta particle range shorter than Y (t 1 / 2 =6.7 days, E β- = 0.5 MeV ) has similar chelating properties, 90 Not only those that are radially labeled with Y, but also , potential 177 Suitable imaging alternatives for investigating Lu-based radiotherapy and as 86 Y is proposed. A similar theoretical basis is found in the radioactive nucleus of neuroendocrine target peptide receptors. It is also applied to substances used for various therapeutic purposes (Chen et al., 2012). Using this approach, potential matched pair images suitable for SPECT imaging Radioactive isotopes 203Pb (half-life, 51.9 hours, E β- =279-keV gamma rays, 81% ) are therapeutic radionuclides for alpha particle therapy. 212 Can be used with Pb (Chappe ll,et al.2000;Yong,et al.2011;Yong,et al. 2012; Yong, et al. 2013). 212 The Pb collapse scheme includes 212 Bi It contains alpha particles, two beta particles, and some gamma rays when it decays. Alpha particle emitters are local Due to local high-density ionization and other high linear energy transfer characteristics (to an irreparable degree of D (This results in disruption of NA double strands and cytotoxicity that is independent of tissue oxygen content or dose rate), It is particularly attractive for targeted radiotherapy (McDevitt, et al, 1998). 212 Pb and 212 Both Bi possess radiochemical properties that have been well discussed regarding antibody binding. It is a promising source of alpha particles for the future, and 224 It can be easily obtained with an Ra generator.
[0008] Similarly, radiohalogens that showed high binding affinity to PSMA in vitro. Carbamate-based PSMA inhibitors have also been developed and are radiolabeled with the positron emitter F-18. When this occurs, high uptake and normal in PSMA-positive mouse tumor xenografts It showed rapid clearance from tissue. The pharmacokinetic profile of this class of compounds is favorable. Because it has little nonspecific binding (that is, it is not metabolized in vivo), (With a reasonable tumor residence time), imaging research extends to molecular radiotherapy. Carbamate inhibitors utilize linker functionality similar to urea-based metal / radioactive metal substances. By using this method to couple with metal chelating materials, PSMA achieves high binding affinity. It can maintain metal or radioactive metal conjugate carbamates Caffolds can also be used for imaging and therapy of PSMA-expressing cells and tissues. [Overview of the project]

[0018] I. Metal / radiometal-labeled PSMA inhibitors for PSMA-targeted imaging and radiotherapy Harmful agents Because it can obtain anatomical, functional, and molecular information simultaneously, magnetic resonance (MR) imaging The approach is advantageous. MR molecular imaging is an established and widely used clinical method. Combining modalities and their high spatial resolution with molecular profiling in vivo It is possible to do so. However, because the sensitivity of MR is inherently low, recognizable MR devices High local concentrations of biological targets are required to generate trusts.
[0019] While I don't want to be bound by any particular theory, PSM is relevant to MR molecular imaging agents. A was considered a good target because it had a high target concentration per cell (approximately 3 μM / cell body). This is because the ligand binding site is located extracellularly. The approach described herein is for MR detection To reduce the amount of agent required for extraction, contrast against specific molecules or cellular targets Binding affinity of the drug (minimum K d The purpose is to improve ). Therefore, the app of this disclosure Roach considers high binding parent as one possible solution for MR-based molecular imaging. A harmonious receptor-specific ligand is combined with a multimeric Gd(III) substance.
[0020] To date, PET based on radioactive metals (64 cu) and SPECT( 111 In addition Beauty 99m Tc) Imaging in mice using radiolabeled urea-based PSMA inhibitors This has been successfully carried out using (i) the PSMA target portion, and (ii) pharmacological adjustments. (iii) a linker and a 3-molecule solution containing a chelating agent that enables the attachment of radionuclides. A strategy has been developed. This strategy is for PET imaging and is compatible with ru 90 It serves as a model for radiotherapy using Y-labeled materials. 86 Y sign DOTAcon It contained a jugate substance. DOTA is a powerful chelating agent for many metals. The same DOTA conjugate can be used with other radioactive radionuclides for radiotherapy, such as Lu-177, A c-225, Bi-213, Bi-212, Pb-212, Cu-67 and Sc-47 It can be used. In the subject matter of this disclosure, the same urea linker construct can be used. By using this method and increasing the number of Gd chelates (monomer, dimer, and trimer Gd), a high-field counter-field is used. By optimizing the relaxation time measurement behavior or MR sensitivity as a binding agent, and its binding affinity, We systematically investigated the potential of PCa-based PSMA-based MR imaging.

[0058] C. Definitions i. Chemical definitions Although those skilled in the art will be able to fully understand the following terms regarding the compounds of formula (I), the following definitions are provided to facilitate the description of the subject matter of the present disclosure. These definitions are intended to supplement and exemplify definitions that will be apparent to those skilled in the art upon consideration of the present disclosure and are not intended to exclude them.
[0059] Whether or not preceded by the term "optionally", as used herein, the terms "substituted" and "substituent" refer to the ability, as understood by those skilled in the art, to change one functional group for another as long as the valence of all atoms is maintained. Where a given structure may be substituted with two or more substituents selected from two or more specified groups, the substituents may be the same or different at each position. Substituents may be further substituted (e.g., an aryl group substituent may have another substituent near it, e.g., another aryl group, and this aryl group may be further substituted at one or more positions, e.g., with fluorine).
[0060] When specifying substituents or linking groups in their conventional chemical formulas written from left to right, These groups are identical and contain the same chemically identical substituents that result from writing the structure from right to left. Including, for example, CH2O- is equivalent to -OCH2-, and -C(=O)O- is equivalent to -OC(=O). - is equivalent to -OC(=O)NR-, and -NRC(=O)O- is equivalent to -NRC(=O)O-, etc.
[0061] In this specification, when a bond is located next to an internal substituent (for example, -NRC(O)-), The order of atoms is fixed, the orientation of the groups is not reversed, and they are inserted into the structure in the presented orientation. In other words, -NRC(O)- is different from -C(O)NR-. In this specification, the term C (O) (for example, -NRC(O)-) is used to indicate a carbonyl (C=O) group. Oxygen is bonded to carbon by a double bond.
[0062] When using the expression "independently selected," the substituents mentioned (e.g., the group) The R groups (such as R1, R2, etc., or variables such as "m" and "n") can be the same or different. For example. Both R1 and R2 can be substituted alkyl groups, or R1 can be hydrogen and R2 can be substituted alkyl groups. For example, it can become a substitute alkyl group.
[0063] This specification indicates the singular form (a, an, a(n)) used when referring to substituent groups. The word means at least one thing. For example, a compound is an alkyl or a When substituted in a reel, this compound optionally contains at least one alkyl and / or fewer alkyl groups. Both are substituted with one aryl substituent. Furthermore, if a part is substituted with an R substituent, this The base can be described as "R-substituted." When a part is R-substituted, this part is less It is substituted with at least one R substituent, and each R substituent is arbitrarily different.
[0064] Unless otherwise specified, named "R" or base generally corresponds to the base that bears that name. Then it has a structure recognized in that field. For explanation purposes, the above specific representative "R" The base is defined below.
[0065] The description of the compounds in this disclosure is limited by the principles of chemical bonding known to those skilled in the art. If a group can be substituted with one or more substituents, such substitution is a chemical bond. In accordance with the principles and not inherently unstable and / or under ambient conditions (e.g., aqueous, neutralized and A compound that will be easily destabilized under several known physiological conditions (as will be apparent to those skilled in the art) A substance is selected to obtain the desired product. For example, a heterocycloalkyl or heteroaryl is selected.

[0167] Example 1 Synthesis and evaluation of gadolinium (Gd)-based contrast agents overview Because it can obtain anatomical, functional, and molecular information simultaneously, magnetic resonance (MR) imaging The approach is advantageous. MR molecular imaging is an established and widely used clinical method. Combining modalities and their high spatial resolution with molecular profiling in vivo It is possible to do so. However, because the sensitivity of MR is inherently low, recognizable MR devices To generate trust, a high local concentration of a biological target is required. The inventors have identified that target High concentrations in target cells, limited expression in non-target tissues, and access on the cell surface. Due to its properties, prostate-specific cancer is an attractive target for imaging and treatment of prostate cancer. Membrane antigens (PSMAs) are suitable biomarkers for MR-based molecular imaging. We hypothesized that it could fulfill the role of [this function]. To achieve this, we used 1 to 3 Gd per molecule. Three types of high-affinity, low-molecular-weight gases are graded as Gd1, Gd2, and Gd3 based on their chelate properties. A dolinium (Gd)(III)-based PSMA-targeted contrast agent was synthesized (Figure 1A). The purpose of this research is to evaluate the PSMA binding affinity and longitudinal relaxation degree (r1) of the synthesized material. This was the case. PSMA-expressing cells (isogenic) and non-expressing control cells. Cellular uptake of substances is evaluated using radiofrequency inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Finally, the ability of that substance to distinguish PSMA-expressing cells from control cells was investigated. Evaluation was performed using MR imaging in both vitro and in vivo conditions.

[0181] result Representative PSMA contrast agents containing Lys-Glu urea as the target moiety: monomers The structures of the dimer and trimer Gd (Gd1, Gd2, and Gd3) are shown in Figure 1A. Multi-step liquid The target compound was prepared by devising a phase synthesis method. This method is briefly described in Schemes 1-3. .
[0182] For all three compounds, the chelating agent DOTA was used. Thermodynamic and kinetic stability This is because it can form complexes with high qualitative properties. To obtain a high degree of relaxation, Gd1 is DOTA-B It contains n-SCN. The structure of Gd1 is based on positron emission tomography (PET) data reported in recent years. It is based on a lead-86Y labeled imaging agent for preclinical use, and this imaging agent is preclinical Highly specific tumor accumulation has been demonstrated in Dell (Banerjee, et al.). (2015). Gd2, both the ∝- and ε-amines of lysine, and condyloma. The peptides were prepared by galvanizing and using a solution-based peptide synthesis method. Under the same conditions, the reaction When the reaction was performed in a room-temperature ultrasonic bath, the yield of the coupling reaction was significantly improved. Gd3 is M As previously reported by astarone et al., rigid triathromycin can be used with click chemistry. The phenol core, to which three Gd(III)-DOTA molecules are bound via zole bonds It includes conjugating a PSMA target functional group to its core via the oxygen of phenol. Gd3 exhibits relatively high relaxation as a result of the triazole linker portion becoming more rigid. The degree was shown. The compound was purified by reverse-phase HPLC and characterized by LC-MS. The Gd(III) content of the substance potentially has a negative effect on the probe's binding affinity. To confirm whether or not it has Gd1, a fluorescence-based PSMA inhibition assay was used. The PSMA inhibition constants (Ki) for Gd2 and Gd3 were determined and are shown in Table 1.
[0183] [Table 1]
[0184] A known high-affinity PSMA inhibitor: N-[[[(S)-1-carboxy-3-methylbutyl [Amino]carbonyl]-L-glutamic acid (ZJ43) (Olszewski et al.) (al., 2004) was used as the reference ligand. As expected, all compounds showed high binding. It showed affinity, with Gd1 (0.45 nM) having the highest Ki value, followed by Gd3 (7.19 nM). Next, Gd2 (18.18 nM) was the lowest. Imaging was performed at 9.4 T and 25°C. In that case, the solution phantom will be 3.0-6.2 mM. -1 s-1 (Gd(III)), 3.0~1 2.5mM -1 s -1 The degree of r1 relaxation in PBS varied between (contrast agents). Table 1). As expected, at 25°C, Gd1 had the lowest degree of relaxation, followed by Gd2 and Gd3. To confirm the selectivity and specificity of the substance, a large amount of PSMA (PC3 PIP) was expressed. Genetically modified human prostate cancer cells and their corresponding wild-type PSMA-free cells Existing cells (PC3 flu) were selected as a negative control (Banerjee (Angew, 2001). After incubation with Gd1 or Gd2, pellet form PSMA+PC3 PIP and PSMA-PC3 flu cells are T1-weighted MR contraceptives. No changes were observed in either the stroma or R1. Conversely, both the stroma incubated with Gd3 showed no changes. T1-weighted images of the cell line show unlabeled cells and PSMA-PC3 flu cells. Compared to Rett, as shown in Figure 4A, PSMA+PC3 PIP cells exhibit a significant difference. MR contrast enhancement was observed. Cellular palpation was performed in the presence and absence of 50 μM Gd3. Rett's MRI enhancement and T1 measurement are performed by washing the cell line with standard medium. After Gd3 removal, Gd3-treated flu cells were compared with control flu cells. Therefore, high enhancement and T between Gd3-treated PIP cells and control PIP cells The difference at one relaxation rate, ΔR 1 This was shown (Figures 4B and 4C).
[0185] Selective blockade experiments by performing co-incubation of Gd3 and ZJ43 were actually conducted. It showed significant blockade of 1 enhancement. Cells incubated with Gd3 in the presence of ZJ43. The cells showed only slight changes in T1 values in both types of cells. This indicates that ZJ43 was able to specifically block the binding of Gd3. These results suggest that Gd3 It showed receptor-specific cell binding to PSMA+PC3 PIP cells, and PSMA-mediated control This demonstrates the presence of last-stage enhancement and proves the concept of receptor-mediated endocytosis. In fact, ICP-MS analysis of cells after post-image analysis shows that PC3 flu cells Only a small amount of Gd(III) was associated with the cellular pellet, but PC3 PIP cell pellets The results showed that the net had a high Gd content (Figures 2 and 3). PSMA+PC3 PIP details The cellular pellet contained approximately 22.82 μM of Gd3, followed by Gd2 and Gd1. They had estimated intracellular Gd(III) concentrations of approximately 12.5 μM and 7.2 μM, respectively (Figure 2). Therefore, the difference between ΔR1 in PIP cells and that of flu cells is P in PIP cells. This reflects the changes caused by specific Gd3 binding to SMA.
[0186] Cellular intracellular translocation assays revealed that PSMA+PC3 PIP cells were finely divided between Gd1 and Gd2. The percentage of incubated volume (%ID) that underwent internal migration within the cell after 4 hours of incubation. After the test, the values were found to be 9.06±0.31 and 21.63±3.51, respectively. At that time, only 2.42±0.11 and 3.51±1.32%ID were associated with the cell surface. (Figure 3) Furthermore, slightly higher nonspecific uptake was observed in PSMA-PC3 f It is associated with Gd2 in lunus cells, and this is lower than Gd1's K i Related to the value It is thought that... To further investigate cellular uptake and internal translocation, Rhod amine-Red TM-X-labeled dual-modality Gd monomer contrast agent We prepared and confirmed the PSMA-mediated internal transfer of this class of contrast agent (Figure 5D). As expected, this substance is only found in PSMA+PC3 PIP cells (Figures 5A-5C). It showed specific and high accumulation. These results suggest that the cell receptor expressed at this level... This demonstrates that these simple target substances can be detected by MRI.
[0187] Time-dependent internal transition studies were conducted at 1, 4, and 24 hours after incubation to Gd3. The cells followed (Figures 6A and 6B). Intracellular uptake after 1 hour and 4 hours was high and specific. Yes, in PSMA+PC3 PIP cells, the values were 28.30±0.47 and 39, respectively. The ID was 92±3.59%, and 24 hours after incubation, it was approximately 89.69± 3.90% ID was observed. A similar amount of Gd (approximately 33-37% ID) was observed at the same time point. These results were linked to the cell membrane in PSMA+PC3 PIP cell pellets. Gd3 detectable T1-weighted enhancement in PIP cells and Gd in PSMA+PIP cells It shows a strong correlation with the highly specific accumulation of 3.
[0188] Prior to evaluating Gd3 in the case of imaging live mice, its biocompatibility should be assessed. The cell proliferation assay was used to investigate the effects of various concentrations of Gd3 in PSMA+PC3 PIP and PSMA-PC3 flu cells were incubated with Gd3 for 24 hours. Gd(III) concentration up to 1 mM did not have a significant effect on the survival rate of SMA-flu cells. (i.e., a survival rate of approximately 90%) (Figure 7). However, the Gd(III) concentration >1 mM The degree of PS affected the viability of PSMA+PC3 PIP cells (Figure 8). Observed levels of PS MA+PC3 PIP cell death is characterized by high intracellular translocation of Gd3, and the long incubation period used. This is thought to be due to the 24-hour interval.
[0189] In vivo MR imaging was performed using subcutaneous implantation in the right and left lower flanks of the PS. Male N with MA+PC3 PIP (right) and PSMA-PC3 flu (left) tumors. In OD / SCID mice, intravenous administration of Gd3 (0.05 mmol / kg dose) at a dose of 9.4 tablets was performed. It was performed after the injection. During the first 20 minutes after the injection, in both PIP and flu tumors, non No specific uptake occurred. A sharp decrease in T1 levels was observed in all tissues, and P SMA flu had the highest response time at 0.63 seconds, followed by PIP tumors at 0.57 seconds and muscle at 0.2 seconds. This lasted 61 seconds. Importantly, it allowed for rapid clearing of contrast agents from muscle and flu tumors. Lance was observed. Contrast enhancement in PIP tumors was most pronounced 40 minutes after injection. The percentage was also high at 36%, and remained high at 30% until 1.5 hours after injection. At 3 hours, muscle Furthermore, it was confirmed that the T1 values of flu tumors returned to their initial values, and the T1 values of PIP tumors showed no significant change. It did not show any transformation.
[0190] In vivo MR imaging of Gd3 was performed, and the images were subcutaneously implanted in the right and left lower flanks, respectively. Patients with PSMA+PC3 PIP and PSMA-PC3 flu tumor xenografts The procedure was also performed after a single bolus intravenous injection (0.06 mmol / kg) in Uss. Figure 9A shows: Quantitative contrast imaging of 1 mm sections of both tumors 40–160 minutes after injection. Hans mapping is shown (ΔR1). Contrast enhancement is PSMA + PC3 PI. It remained constant within the P tumor for at least 3 hours, but PSMA-PC3 fl In tumors and muscle tissue, the levels decreased rapidly. PSMA+PC3 PIP tumor (Figure) The change in T1 value in Figures 10A and 10B) is lowest at 1819± during the first 40-60 minutes. It reached 76ms (mean ± SD, mean 36% enhancement in R1 value, n=4), and 90 It remained constant at 29% until 190 minutes after injection, and then slowly decreased to 24%. In the case of PSMA-PC3 flu tumors, the highest contrast enhancement is achieved from 2 injections. At 0 minutes, it was approximately 24%, and then the contrast enhancement rapidly decayed (at 40 minutes, ΔR1 < 20%. These results were obtained 80 and 120 minutes after injection of PSMA + PC3 This demonstrates specific contrast enhancement (P ≤ 0.05) for PIP tumors. As shown in Figure 9B, these results were obtained using the same trimer Gd probe that does not have a target region. Other mice administered using the same method (no tumor enhancement was observed) (Mastaron) A direct comparison was made with e, 2011.
[0191] Under the same experimental conditions, a control study using physiological saline (PBS) showed PIP and f No change in T1 levels was observed for lu tumors (Figure 12).
[0192] While not intended to confine to any particular theory, when combined with PSMA, the rotational correlation of Gd3 is observed. The time increased compared to the unbonded state. Bonding also altered the hydration number and water exchange rate for each substance. The relaxation level changed from what was expected based on the relaxation level of the free contrast agent. This is possible (Caravan et al., 2007). Also, rotation in a high magnetic field. Extending the correlation time slightly reduces the degree of relaxation due to the interaction between the contrast agent and cellular components. (Caravan, P., et al. 2009; De Leon-Rodrig uez,LM,et al.2010;Geninatti-Crich,S.20 11) Highly sensitive multimer Gd(III) in combination with established PSMA target small molecules By enhancing the complex, PSMA-targeted MR can be achieved in vitro and in vivo. Molecular imaging was performed.
[0193] In summary, the Gd-based contrast agent Gd3 was used in in vitro studies using mouse xenografts. It could be used for PSMA-specific MR imaging in vo. Prostate cancer and other Optimization of the construct is underway for translational use in cancer.

In each case, four mice were given 1 dose from the injection. They were slaughtered by cervical dislocation at 2, 5, and 24 hours later. Heart, lungs, liver, stomach, pancreas, spleen, Fat, kidneys, muscles, small intestine, large intestine, bladder, and PSMA+PC-3 PIP and PSMA- The PC-3 flu tumor was promptly removed. A 0.1 mL blood sample was also taken. The organs are weighed and tissue radioactivity is measured using an automated gamma counter (1282 Compugamma C). Measurements were taken at S, Pharmacia / LKB Nuclear Inc. (Tissue 1g). The percentage of the injected amount per unit (%ID / g) is obtained using a series of diluted samples of the injected radioactivity. The calculations were performed using [a specific method / tool]. All radioactivity measurements were corrected for radioactive decay up to the time of injection.
[0215] Animal imaging Small animal PET and CT For imaging studies, PSMA+PC-3 PIP and PSMA-PC-3 f NOD / SCID mice with lu tumors were anesthetized with 3% and given 1.5% isoflurane.

For the purpose of studying binding specificity, In mice, the known blocking dose of the PSMA inhibitor N-[[[(S)-1-carboxy-3-methyl [Butylamino]carbonyl]-L-glutamic acid (ZJ43) (Olszewski et al., 2004) (50 mg / kg) 86 Subcutaneous injection 30 minutes before the Y-4 injection. And, to another mouse 86 Only Y-4 was injected. At different time points, individuals under anesthesia were administered. Each mouse is placed prone on the scanner gantry, secured with medical tape, and then anesthetic is administered. The flow rate was increased to 0.8 L / min. The image was taken using FORE / 2D-OSEM (2-iterator). Reconstruction was performed using (16 subsets), radioactive decay, scanner latency and scattering. Radiation correction was performed. Partial volume correction (PVC) was not performed. After each PET scan. A CT scan was performed for anatomical co-registration. To facilitate the alignment of PET and CT images, PET and CT scanners A special bed for mice that fits both was used. The mice were under anesthesia and scanned. During the transition between scans, and during both scans, I was unable to move. Next, the reconstructed PET and C The T-image is transformed through rigid body transformation to capture natural landmarks (e.g., mouse limbs and bed contours). Using AMIDE software (sourceforge.net / amide) I manually aligned the position using [a specific method / tool]. I then displayed the data and analyzed it with AMIDE.

During imaging, the baboon was positioned in a supine position. For attenuation correction, low-dose CT images were used. These images were taken immediately before the first and last PET images. The PET and CT images were processed by Herm. es workstation (Hermes Medical Solutions, GREE) Alignment between time points was performed using (Minville, South Carolina). 14 Saw The contours of the organs were visualized on the CT scan with the help of fused PET / CT images. The decay-corrected average radioactivity concentration (Bq / g) was extracted from PET images for each source organ. The outline was drawn onto PET images of the kidneys, renal cortex, and prostate. The decay-corrected total radioactivity per organ quantified within the timeframe is calculated for the first six time points. Regarding the time elapsed (within 1 hour), it showed an almost 1:1 correspondence with the administered radioactivity, and the administered radioactivity It was confirmed that all brain activity was utilized in PET imaging, and subsequently, the total amount administered was measured by urination. It became less. Whole-body retention kinetics using the total amount of radioactivity quantified in each PET image. (retention kinetics) were obtained.
[0218] Nine static PET images were used as a bolus of 80.7 MBq (2.2 mCi). 86 Y -6 administered intravenously at 5, 10, 15, 20, 35 minutes, 1, 2, 3, 5, and 23 hours later. I took a picture. The image was scanned using a Discovery Rx VCT scanner (GE Health). The image was taken in 2D mode using hcare.
[0219] Radiation dose measurement For each time point, the radioactivity concentration (Bq / cm³) 3 ) of the 14 imaged organs Each measurement is taken and multiplied by the volume of the organ to obtain the time point for each organ. The total radioactivity was determined. Next, the measured values were corrected for decay, and the CT density and the volume of the drawn contour were used. Dividing the calculated mass of the baboon's organs by the injected radioactivity gives the following for each time point and each organ. The ratio of the initial radioactivity per gram is obtained (FIA / g). Next, The baboon FIA / g values were converted to human FIA (per organ) using the following equation (Sc hwartz et al., 2011; Woodard et al., 1975).

Next, TIAC was calculated as OLINDA / E Input into XM (Stabin et al., 2005) and calculate the absorbed dose per unit of radioactivity. This was obtained for 14 organs. Using a specific kidney model in OLINDA / EXM... Renal cortical dose values were obtained using this method. Absorbed dose from organs outside the kidney was obtained from an internal kidney model. This was added to the calculated renal cortical dose. A special prostate model was used for prostate self-dose, and also for the bladder. The external dose was added to the prostate dose as a substitute for the whole-body dose. Unit radiation for the salivary glands The self-dose component of the absorbed dose per unit area is measured using 3D-RD Monte Carlo (EGSn The results were obtained using human CT imaging of the rc (retrograde cytology) and salivary glands. Cross-dose The components were obtained by assuming that the cross-dose for organs of similar size (pancreas) is the same.

[0238] Small animal PET imaging Whole-body PET / CT images 86 Y-4, 86 Y-5 and 86 Y-6 (Figures 18A, 18B, The results were obtained for Figures 18C, 19A, 20A, 20B, and 20C. Three radiant tracers - All are PSMA+PC-3 PIP tumors and the kidney, a known PSMA-expressing organ. Visualization was made possible two hours after irradiation (Figures 18A, 18B, and 18C). Radiation tray Uptake in the kidney is specific to PSMA expression in the proximal tubules of mice. In addition to being included, some of these substances are purged through elimination pathways (Stabin et al., 2005). material 86 Y-5 is in the gastrointestinal tract, possibly three Phe on the linker portion. Nonspecific accumulation was observed due to increased hydrophobicity caused by the residues. 86 Y-4 PET-CT Considering the short biological half-life of this class of low molecular weight compounds, the image is taken from 1, Images were taken at 4 and 18 hours later. PSMA+PC-3 PIP tumors and kidneys and bladder The presence of radiation tracers was observed for up to 4 hours (Figure 19A). Radiation levels largely disappeared by 18 hours. However, in PSMA+PC-3 PIP tumors... Some radioactivity remained. As a further test of in vivo binding specificity, 86 Y-4 blockade The study involved pre-treating animals with 50 mg / kg of the potent and selective PSMA inhibitor ZJ43. This was done by (Silver et al., 1997). Figure 19B shows that ZJ43 is swollen. Not only within the tumor, but also in the renal cortex, another PSMA-expressing tissue. 86 The Y-4 bond can be blocked. This demonstrates that it is possible (Stabin et al., 2005). Figures 20A and 20B. Figure 20C shows the results 0.5, 2, and 12 hours after injection. 86 PET-CT scans for Y-6 It is an image. Importantly, 86 Y-6 provides faster radiation clearance from normal tissue. It shows signs of clear tumors, and within 12 hours of injection, the radioactivity is mostly excreted from the kidneys, resulting in a clean tumor. Background contrast was obtained. After just 15 minutes, PSMA+PC-3 Clear imaging of PIP tumors was achieved. In particular, 86 Y-6 is 86 Y-4 and 86 Y-5 It does not contain the additional phenylalanine moiety, and contains p-isothiocyanatobenzyl 1,4,7,10 -Tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid (DOTA) chelating agent This utilizes the addition of carboxylates to strongly retain the metal, and also improves its lipophilicity.

[0239] Distribution in mice Based on the imaging results, the compound 86 Y-4 and 86 Y-6 is further divided into standard body components Evaluated by fabric assay (Banerjee, Pullambhatla, Byun, et al.) (al., 2011). Tables 3 and 4 show selected results 1, 2, 5 and 24 hours after injection. This shows the %ID / g uptake values in organs. Both radiation tracers are PSMA+PC-3. In PIP tumor xenografts, PSMA-dependent binding was observed. 86 Y-4 showed results as early as 1 High tumor uptake was observed after several hours (29.3 ± 8.7% ID / g), and relatively slow clearing was observed. With Lance, the level was 15.7±1.7% ID / g 5 hours after injection, and 5% after 24 hours. The result was 9 ± 0.8% ID / g. PSMA+PC-3 PIP tumor vs. PSMA-PC-3 The flu tumor uptake ratio was high, ranging from 89 at 1 hour to 229 at 24 hours. Furthermore, normal tissues, such as the heart, liver, stomach, and pancreas, did not show significant uptake (approximately 1% ID). ( / g), decreased to less than 0.02% ID / g after 24 hours. PSMA+PC-3 PI The P tumor-to-muscle ratio was also high, reaching a maximum of 1046 in 24 hours. Renal uptake was As expected, the levels were high, peaking at 244.9±8.8%ID / g after 1 hour, and continued to rise until 24 hours later. The level then decreased to 1.5 ± 0.7% ID / g.
[0240] Table 4 shows, 86 The organ %ID / g uptake values for Y-6 are shown. 86 Y-6 is PS MA+PC-3 rapidly accumulated within 1 hour of injection in PIP tumors, with an uptake value of 26. The concentration was 0.6 ± 1.9% ID / g. The radiotrace concentration was PSMA + PC-3 PIP tumor. The uptake continued to rise internally, reaching a peak of 32.2 ± 8.0% ID / g 5 hours after injection. The tumor's uptake remained high up to 24 hours after injection. In normal organs, for example... For example, blood, heart, liver, spleen, stomach, and pancreas take up little in the first hour, and up to 5 hours later. It decreased to less than 0.4% ID / g. 86 Renal uptake of Y-6 is (1 The values were 86.5±13.6% ID / g and 54.0±9.2% ID / g at 1 hour and 2 hours, respectively. ) 86 The number was far less than in the case of Y-4.

[0243] Baboon PET imaging and 86 Pharmacokinetics of Y-6 Figures 21A and 21B show PET studies of the liver, salivary glands, kidneys, and bladder using radiation trays. A sacral sac was observed. For quantification purposes, contours were taken of each PET image of the kidney, renal cortex, and the entire prostate. This was drawn in the image. All organs showed two phases (rapid and slow) of biological clearance. The kidneys showed the highest uptake approximately 25 minutes after injection (8% ID / g). 68 percent of the radioactivity disappears with a biological half-life of approximately 1 hour (0.84 hours), and the remainder The radioactivity disappeared with a biological half-life of 16.6 hours. The majority of the radioactivity in the renal cortex (66 %) disappears with a biological half-life of 1.1 hours, and the remaining radioactivity has a biological half-life of approximately 19 hours. It disappeared within a certain period. Significant uptake and retention were observed in the liver and salivary glands. However, 68 Ga-labeled PSMA target substance and 124 / 131 Patients imaged with I-MIP-1095 It was milder compared to PET scans (Zechmann et al., 20 14).

[0248] Essay Three methods for measuring non-human primate doses 86 Y-labeled PSMA target material was synthesized and evaluated. These compounds were D, which is bound to a target urea similar to those previously published. Contains OTA- or DOTA mono-amide chelated radioactive metals (Banerjee e t al.,2010;Banerjee,Pullambhatla,Byun,et (al., 2011). DOTA and its derivatives are PET ( 86 Y) or radiopharmaceutical treatment Treatment( 90 It attracted attention because it could be used for both Y). Pharmacokinetics: It binds to PSMA. Radioactive metal chelating agents used, including those specifically designed for compounds. It has been reported that this is a matter of degree. While not intended to tie to any particular theory, this is the main point. This is thought to be due to the total charge of the radioactive ligand and the stability of the metal chelate complex. in particular, 68 Previous information on Ga-labeled PSMA-conjugated DOTA conjugate materials In the report, 68 Ga-4 showed the fastest clearance from normal tissues, including the kidneys. (Banerjee et al., 2010). However, in this study, 86 Unexpectedly high renal uptake of Y-4 was observed. 86 Based on the evaluation of Y-6, radiation therapy is necessary The desired low renal uptake and high tumor retention were demonstrated, followed by dose It was selected for quantitative PET imaging in baboons for measurement.
[0249] In the binding specificity study (Figure 19B), after 1 hour, 86 Almost all of Y-4 binding in the kidneys It was shown to be specific and not due to excretion. The evidence is that it is related to the renal parenchyma rather than the tumor. The fact that blood flow is more systemic and faster in the kidneys means that many of these substances are present in tumors more readily in the kidneys than in the kidneys. This suggests that this may be the reason for the long retention period. PSMA binding affinity is tumor vs. kidney. One factor that is thought to determine the uptake, but other factors such as lipophilicity and charge Plasma protein binding and molecular weight are also thought to play important roles. Amount 1.19mGy / MBq( 90 Y) and 0.245 mGy / MBq( 177 Lu) is Pepu The calculated value of 1.97 mGy / MBq( in reports involving cytoplasmic receptor radiotherapy) 90 Y) and 0 .45mGy / MBq( 177 Lu) (Baechler et al., 2012) (kidney) The values were comparable to those for the cortex (a dose-limiting organ).
[0250] The three commonly used and clinically utilized chelating agents DOTA are all radioactive Used as a ligand. DOTA and many DOTA derivatives are kinetically and thermodynamically stable. This is because it is known to form a complex. The corresponding Y(III) complex is in vi It has been shown in many cases to be stable in VO (a desirable characteristic as a chelating agent). Yes, it exists. Importantly, DOTA is 86 Y(III) is a chemically different type of lanthanide. ,for example 177 Lu(III) and actinides, for example 225 Numerous, including Ac(III) It has also been reported to form stable complexes with trivalent metal ions. Furthermore, PSMA-bound urine The elementary material is stable under the radioactive labeling conditions used in DOTA.
[0251] recent years, 90 Y or 177 Lu-labeled version of PSMA-targeted monoclonal antibody J591 , promising results were obtained in Phase 1 and Phase 2 clinical trials (Bander et al. .,2005;Tagawa,Akhtar,et al.,2013;Tagawa, Milowsky, et al., 2013). In those cases, 111 In te Identifying antibodies were used in dose measurement calculations (Vallabhajosula et al., 2020). 05). These radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies hold potential for tumor detection and treatment. Although it is being considered, its limited tumor targeting ability and relatively high absorbed dose to red bone marrow This is detrimental to routine clinical use. As an alternative approach, 131 I-labeled PSMA Early clinical results using targeted urea small molecules showed high dose delivery to malignant lesions (Z echmann et al., 2014). In these published studies, saliva The glands showed the highest absorbed dose (4.62 mGy / MBq), followed by the liver (1.47 mGy / MBq). Both q) and kidney (1.45 mGy / MBq) followed (Zechmann et al. (l., 2014). The biggest contributor to this salivary gland absorbed dose is the uptake of free iodine. It is thought to exist and has been proven even at relatively high thyroid absorbed doses (0.91 mGy / MBq). However, this does not occur in this study. Generally, the clearance rate from normal organs is the kidney Except, 86 The results for Y-6 have been published (Zechmann et al., 2 Faster than 014.
[0252] In summary, the results of the internal distribution and dose measurements were: 86 Y-6 quantitatively affects PSMA-expressing tumors. It is a promising candidate for ET imaging, and also targets the PSMA. 90 Y-, 177 Lu type It could be a suitable imaging alternative for planning and monitoring radiopharmaceutical therapy. This suggests that.
[0253] Example 4 For PSMA-based targeted radionuclide therapy 177 Lu-SR-VI-71, 203 Pb-SR -VI-71 and 203 Pb-SR-IX-11 0.01~10μCi 177 This figure shows a study of cell uptake using Lu-SRVI71. 24 shows high uptake in PSMA+PIP and very high uptake in PSMA-flu tumors. It shows slight uptake. In addition, internal migration studies have shown that approximately 44% of the total cell-bound radioactivity is It was revealed that it undergoes internal migration. Furthermore, 10 μM N-[ [[(1S)-1-carboxy-3-methylbutyl]amino]carbonyl]-L-gluta Co-incubation with minic acid (ZJ43) resulted in approximately 90% blockade in PSMA+ cells. This was observed, further confirming the excellent specificity of the substance (Figure 23). In vivo evaluation Standard PSMA+PIP and PSMA-flu mouse xenografts, as well as Figure 25A and Figure 2. SP in an instrument equipped with VECT or ultra-high sensitivity mouse collimator as disclosed in 5B and Figure 25C This was performed using ECT imaging. The highest accumulation of radioactivity was observed in PSMA+PIP tumors. It was visible at all time points. Other visible organs are the kidneys and bladder. 2 hours (59.1±12.8% ID / g) and 24 hours (40.6±5.8 ID / g) (n=4 Studies on in vivo distribution in ) showed high specificity and high uptake and retention in PSMA+ tumors. A flu (approximately 180 PIPs in 2 hours) was actually observed. Uptake was high at 89.3±28.9% in 2 hours, indicating rapid clearing within 24 hours. The trend continued (6.29 ± 3.4% ID / g).

[0257] These results suggest that such low molecular weight herbicides possess the pharmacokinetics desirable for radionuclide therapy. The feasibility of preparing nostic materials is extremely promising. Furthermore, the data shows that This supports the idea that low molecular weight substances of this class can effectively migrate internally when bound to PSMA. It is.
