Conclusions
Here, we have developed an improved radiosynthesis of 123I-MAPi, an Auger theranostic agent. This process was achieved using a single step, 123I-iododestannylation reaction from the corresponding stannane precursor in good AY and MA. 123I-MAPi was evaluated in vitro in a small cell lung cancer model with high PARP expression, rapid internalization and high nuclear uptake shown.
Methods
123I-MAPi was prepared in a single step via 123I-iododetannylation of the corresponding tributylstannane precursor. In vitro internalization assay, subcellular fractionation and confocal microscopy where used to evaluate the performance of 123I-MAPi in a small cell lung cancer model.
Purpose
123I-MAPi, a novel PARP1-targeted Auger radiotherapeutic has shown promising
Results
123I-MAPi was synthesized in a single step from the corresponding stannane precursor in AY of 45 ± 2% and MA of 11.8 ± 4.8 GBq µmol-1. In vitro in LX22 cells showed rapid internalization (5 min) with accumulation found predominantly in the membrane, nucleus and chromatin of the cell as determined by subcellular fractionation.
