the successful synthesis of a C-functionalized
version of the TE1PA ligand, a monopicolinate cyclam, we looked to
demonstrate its in vivo properties versus DOTA and NOTA, after conjugation
on the 9E7.4 rat antibody, an IgG2a against CD138 murine,
which has relevant properties for multiple myeloma targeting. For
each ligand, different conjugation approaches had been considered
to select the most appropriate for the comparative study. The p-SCN-Bn-TE1PA, NHS-DOTA, and p-SCN-Bn-NOTA
were finally chosen for conjugation and radiolabeling tests. For in
vivo comparison, we used a model of subcutaneous grafted mice with
5T33 tumor cells. In vitro tests and immuno-PET study highlighted 64Cu-9E7.4-p-SCN-Bn-NOTA as the least attractive.
Further competitive biodistribution and hepatic metabolic studies
at 2, 24, and 48 h post-injection (100 μg radiolabeled with
10 MBq of 64Cu) were then performed with the 64Cu-9E7.4-p-SCN-Bn-TE1PA and 64Cu-9E7.4-NHS-DOTA.
Results show a better in vivo resistance of 64Cu-9E7.4-p-SCN-Bn-TE1PA to transchelation compared to 64Cu-9E7.4-NHS-DOTA, especially at later times. This was confirmed
with 64Cu-9E7.4-p-SCN-Bn-NOTA at 48 h
PI. 64Cu-9E7.4-p-SCN-Bn-TE1PA also demonstrated
an excellent hepatic clearance. 64Cu-9E7.4-p-SCN-Bn-TE1PA displayed an overall superiority compared to 64Cu-9E7.4-NHS-DOTA and 64Cu-9E7.4-p-SCN-Bn-NOTA
in terms of in vivo stability, reinforcing the usefulness of the p-SCN-Bn-TE1PA ligand for 64Cu immuno-PET imaging.
