This disclosure relates to the technical field of radiopharmaceutical chemistry and clinical nuclear medicine and, in particular, relates to a 99mTc-labeled isonitrile-containing glucose derivative and preparation method and use thereof.
At present, malignant tumors have become the first killer threatening human health and life in the field of clinical medicine. The annual incidence of tumors and mortality from tumors are still on the rise. Early diagnosis, early treatment and personalized treatment of tumors are the most effective measures for reducing mortality from tumors. Traditional non-invasive imaging methods for tumor detection, such as X-ray, CT and MM, are mainly morphological and structural imaging of organs under pathological conditions, while molecular imaging techniques of nuclear medicine, such as positron emission tomography (PET) and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), can reflect the changes of tumors in physiology, pathology, metabolism, and function at the molecular level. At present, with the organic fusion of imaging technologies, such as PET/CT, PET/MR and SPECT/CT, molecular imaging techniques play an increasingly important role in early diagnosis and personalized treatment of tumors. The study of radioactive molecular probes for tumors on which the molecular imaging technology of nuclear medicine depends, appears to be particularly urgent and important in order to adapt to the need for widespread application and rapid development of this technology in the clinical diagnosis and treatment fields.
At present, the tumor imaging agent that is most often used clinically is 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG). This imaging agent has good imaging effect, but its expensive diagnostic cost limits its wide application to a certain extent, especially in economically underdeveloped countries and regions, and is not widely used yet. Since 99mTc has the advantages of suitable half-life (T1/2=6.02 h) and γ single photon emission of 140 key, and the popularization and application of 99Mo-99mTc generator make 99mTc radiopharmaceuticals more simple to prepare and capable of being contained in an inexpensive kit that is readily available and reliable in quality, the development of a new 99mTc-labeled glucose-based tumor imaging agent with a clinical application value has important practical significance. Isonitriles are a class of organic compounds with the general formula of RNC, in which the nitrogen atom bears a part of positive charge and the carbon atom bears a part of negative charge. Studies have shown that the carbon atom in the isonitrile can coordinate with 99mTc(I) to form a positive monovalent complex [99mTc-(CNR)6]+. 99mTc-methoxyisobutylisonitrile (99mTc-MIBI) has been widely used clinically as an imaging agent for myocardium perfusion, and it has been found in clinics that the imaging agent has certain oncotropic effect. The isonitrile molecule connects 99mTc and a sugar molecule in the tumor molecular probe of this disclosure, and functions as a bifunctional linker to integrate the function of oncotropic glucose metabolism with the tracer function of 99mTc. Based on the above background, it is of great scientific significance and broad application prospect to develop and explore a 99mTc-labeled glucose-based tumor molecular probe with excellent performance, convert glucosamine into an isonitrile-containing glucose derivative (referred to as CNDG) and then utilize the carbon atom in the isonitrile ligand to coordinate with 99mTc, thereby obtaining a stable 99mTc labeled isonitrile-containing glucose derivative used as a tumor imaging agent, also making it an important task in this field.
A 99mTc-labeled isonitrile-containing glucose derivative that is stable and simple for preparation is disclosed herein. A method of preparation thereof is also disclosed.
This disclosure adopts the following technical solution: a 99mTc-labeled isonitrile-containing glucose derivative having the structural formula of [99mTc-(CNDG)6]+ is shown as follows:
In the structural formula, a 99mTc+ core is taken as the central nucleus, the carbon atom of isonitrile in the CNDG coordinates with 99mTc(I) to form a hexacoordinated complex [99mTc-(CNDG)6]+, and n is an integer in the range of 2 to 5.

The reagent raw materials used in the chemical synthesis of this disclosure are all commercially available products and have a wide range of sources. The complex [99mTc-(CNDG)6]+ prepared by the above method has a radiochemical purity of greater than 90%, is a hydrophilic substance, and has good in vitro stability. It has high uptake and good retention at the tumor sites of tumor-bearing mice, good tumor/muscle ratio and tumor/blood ratio, and low uptake value in non-target organs such as liver, kidney and lung, and is a novel 99mTc-labeled isonitrile-containing glucose derivative with excellent performance that can be used for tumor imaging.
Determination of the performance of the [99mTc-(CNDG)6]+ of this disclosure:
1. Chromatographic Identification of the Complex [99mTc-(CNDG)6]+
The radiochemical purity of the labeled substance is identified by thin layer chromatography (TLC). The developing system used is a methanol/polyamide film sheet. Under this system, the Rf values of the radioactive component are shown in the following table.
99mTcO4−
99mTcO2•nH2O
The radiochemical purities of the labeled substances as determined by the above chromatographic identification are all greater than 90%.
2. Determination of the lipid-water partition coefficient
One hundred μL of the labeled substance solution (50 μCi) diluted with normal saline is placed into a 2 mL centrifuge tube, and then 800 μL of n-octanol and 700 μL of PBS are added to the centrifuge tube, which is subsequently covered with a cap. The centrifuge tube is vortexed for 3 minutes (2500 r/minute), allowed to stand until the solution is layered, and centrifuged in a centrifuge for 3 minutes (3000 r/minute). Three samples of the upper organic phase and three samples of the lower aqueous phase are taken, each 100 μL, and detected in a γ-counter for the radioactive counts of the organic and aqueous phases, respectively. The lipid-water partition coefficient P=the radioactive count of the organic phase/the radioactive count of the water phase, and the lipid-water partition coefficient is usually represented by Log P. The Log P values of [99mTc-(CN2DG)6]+, [99mTc-(CN3DG)6]+, [99mTc-(CN4DG)6]+ and [99mTc-(CN5DG)6]+ are determined to be −4.26±0.12, −4.01±0.17, −3.84±0.06 and −3.57±0.35, respectively, indicating that the labeled substances are all water-soluble substances and the hydrophilic performance of the corresponding labeled substances decreases as the value of n increases.
3. Determination of the Stability
The radiochemical purities of the labeled substances are determined after the labeled substances are kept at room temperature and at 37° C. in mouse serum for different time periods (1, 2, 3, and 4 hours), respectively. The test results show that all the radiochemical purities are greater than 90% after the labeled substances are kept at room temperature and at 37° C. in mouse serum for 4 hours, indicating that the labeled substances have good in vitro stability.
4. Determination of the Bio-Distribution in Tumor-Bearing Mice
The labeled solution (0.1 mL, 74 KBq) is injected into mice through the tail vein, and the injection time is recorded. Then the mice were killed by cervical dislocation at different time phases (30 minutes, 60 minutes, and 120 minutes), five mice for each time phase, and the organs of interest such as heart, liver, lung, kidney, spleen, stomach, muscle, blood and tumor are taken out after dissection, and measured with a γ-counter for the radioactive count of each organ. The uptake value of each organ is obtained by calculation based on the mass of the organ (with % ID/g as the unit). The bio-distribution results of each labeled substance in tumor-bearing mice are shown in Tables 1 to 4:
The bio-distribution data of [99mTc-(CN2DG)6]+, [99mTc-(CN3DG)6]+, [99mTc-(CN4DG)6]+ and [99mTc-(CN5DG)6]+ in tumor-bearing mice are compared with that of 99mTc-ECDG, which has entered the phase III clinical study (J. David et al., Imaging with 99mTc-ECDG Targeted at the Multifunctional Glucose Transport System: Feasibility Study with Rodents, J. Radiology 2003, 226(2):465-473), and the results are shown in Table 5.
99mTc-ECDG (% ID/g) in tumor-bearing mice 0.5 hour after injection
99mTc-
The above results show that [99mTc-(CN2DG)6]+, [99mTc-(CN3DG)6]+, [99mTc-(CN4DG)6]+ and [99mTc-(CN5DG)6]+ are superior to 99mTc-ECDG in the uptake in tumors, the tumor/blood ratio, and tumor/liver ratio, and the uptake values thereof in liver, kidney and other organs are lower than 99mTc-ECDG. Therefore, [99mTc-(CN2DG)6]+, [99mTc-(CN3DG)6]+, [99mTc-(CN4DG)6]+ and [99mTc-(CN5DG)6]+ can be popularized and applied as a novel tumor imaging agent with excellent performance.
5. Determination by SPECT Imaging
The prepared [99mTc-(CN3DG)6]+ or [99mTc-(CN5DG)6]+ (0.2 mL, 700 μCi) is injected into tumor-bearing mice through tail vein, and SPECT imaging is performed 1 hour later. The SPECT imaging results show that both of them have evident aggregation at the tumor sites, and also have a relatively high concentration in kidney, while the uptake thereof in other organs is relatively low, indicating that they can be tumor imaging agents with excellent performance.
