Radiopharmaceutical evaluation of novel bifunctional chelators and bioconjugates for tumour imaging and therapy
Institute of Radiopharmaceutical Cancer Research, Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden- Rossendorf (HDZR), Germany
Abstract
Bispidines (3,7-diazabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane) and their derivatives act as bifunctional chelators (BFC), combining the advantages of multidentate macrocyclic and acyclic ligands e.g. high kinetic inertness, rapid radiolabelling under mild conditions. This bicyclic chelator system shows a great diversity in terms of its denticity and type of functional groups, yielding a wide range of multidentate ligands that can bind a variety of different metal ions. In addition, they allow a facile functionalisation of targeting molecules such as peptides, peptidomimetics, and bispecic antibodies. Herein, examples of various bispidine complexes labelled with [64Cu]Cu2+, [111In]In3+, [ 177Lu]Lu3+ or [ 225Ac]Ac3+ will be presented which provide a picture of how different substituents inuence the coordination mode. Target-specic radiolabelled bispidine-based conjugates (e.g. peptides, antibody fragments, antibodies) investigated in vivo by positron emission or single-photon emission computed tomography will be presented and discussed in terms of their suitability for nuclear medicine applications.
