Abstract
Description
A FAP binding compound, metal complex and use thereof Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of radiopharmaceutical chemistry, and in particular to a radioisotope-labeled fibroblast activation protein (FAP) binding compound, a metal complex and uses thereof. Background Art
[0002] The 2020 global cancer data released by the World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) show that in 2020, my country experienced 4.57 million new cancer cases and 3 million cancer deaths, far exceeding other countries. With the rise and development of nuclear medicine, the use of nuclear medicine imaging techniques to detect and accurately identify lesions throughout the body can provide clinicians with better diagnostic information during treatment. Nuclear medicine is the application of nuclear science and technology to the diagnosis and treatment of diseases. Its clinical applications are extensive, including diagnostic imaging for tumors, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, neurological diseases, and bone diseases; therapeutic applications include thyroid diseases, tumor treatment, and targeted therapies. Specialized drugs that incorporate radionuclides are called nuclear medicines. Molecularly targeted drugs have a well-defined mechanism of action that can effectively discriminate between tumor cells and normal cells. PD-1 inhibitors, currently popular globally, specifically bind to the PD-1 receptor on T cells to relieve the cellular immune suppression of tumors and activate cellular immunity to eliminate tumors. Currently, a variety of targeted drugs are available in China, with indications for solid tumors such as lung cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, gastric cancer, and breast cancer, as well as hematologic malignancies such as myeloid leukemia. FAP, with its high expression in various malignant tumors, high tumor uptake, and low background in normal tissues, can be used as an effective molecular target for cancer diagnosis and treatment. The development of FAP-specific inhibitors, which bind specifically to FAP, represents a new class of radiopharmaceuticals that can serve as molecularly targeted imaging probes and hold broad clinical application prospects.
[0003] FAP is overexpressed in fibroblasts within the tumor stroma. Tumor-associated fibroblasts are a crucial component of the tumor microenvironment, accounting for up to 90% of the total tumor mass in desmoplastic tumors. They express fibroblast activation protein (FAP) at levels significantly higher than in normal tissue, making FAP a promising molecular target for tumorigenesis. Fibroblast activation protein (FAP) is a type II membrane-bound glycoprotein belonging to the dipeptidyl peptidase 4 family, possessing both dipeptidyl peptidase and endopeptidase activities. Several FAP inhibitors (FAPIs) have been developed as small molecule inhibitors of the enzyme's activity. These FAP inhibitors (FAPIs) have high tumor affinity and high tumor accumulation for FAP on the surface of CAF membranes. They can be used for PET imaging with high sensitivity, facilitating noninvasive early diagnosis, staging, differential diagnosis, and prognostic assessment of FAP-positive diseases, potentially improving clinical diagnostic yield and treatment survival. However, the pharmacokinetic properties of existing FAPIs remain to be improved. For example, DOTA-FAPI-04 is rapidly cleared through the kidneys, limiting its application. Constructing dimer derivatives is a strategy to improve the tumor accumulation and retention time of FAPI, which has great significance in the diagnosis and treatment of tumors. However, studies have shown that the clearance of FAPI is the result of the interaction of multiple processes, and the method to ensure retention time is still inconclusive.
[0004] FDG is currently the most widely used radiotracer in tumor PET imaging, but it also has certain shortcomings. In many cases, nonspecific and physiological uptake of radiotracers by critical organs can reduce diagnostic accuracy. In contrast, FAPI has good development prospects. FAPI is independent of glucose activity and significantly reduces background signals in the brain, liver, oral cavity, nasopharyngeal mucosa, and gastrointestinal tract. FAPI also has significant advantages in detecting primary or metastatic liver lesions, as well as pancreatic cancer, peritoneal cancer, gastric cancer, colon cancer, lung cancer, and ovarian cancer.
[0005] Radionuclide drugs play an important role in cancer diagnosis and treatment. Tumor-targeted radionuclide drugs can release radiation at the tumor site and have achieved good results in the treatment of various cancers.
[0006] There is an urgent need in the art to develop FAP-binding agents with good affinity for tumors and improved pharmacokinetic properties, as well as radioisotope metal complexes that can be used for imaging and / or therapy. Summary of the Invention

In one embodiment, chiral chromatography is used to separate torsional isomers, for example, using supercritical CO2 and MEOH as the mobile phase.
[0084] Optically pure enantiomers can be obtained by resolving racemic mixtures according to conventional methods, for example, by forming diastereomeric salts with optically active acids or bases, or by forming covalent diastereomers. Mixtures of diastereomers can be separated into individual diastereomers based on their physical and / or chemical differences by methods known in the art (e.g., by chromatography or fractional crystallization). The optically active enantiomer base or acid is then released from the separated diastereomeric salts. Another method for separating racemic enantiomers can be chiral chromatography (e.g., a chiral HPLC column), and the separated chiral isomers can be subjected to conventional derivatization treatment or not prior to separation, depending on which method can achieve more efficient separation of the chiral isomers. Enzymatic methods can also be used to separate derivatized or underivatized chiral isomers.
