  • Title: Reducing renal uptake of 90Y- and 177Lu-labeled alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone peptide analogues.
    Author: Miao Y, Fisher DR, Quinn TP.
    Journal: Nucl Med Biol; 2006 Aug; 33(6):723-33. PubMed ID: 16934691.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to improve the tumor-to-kidney uptake ratios of (90)Y- and (177)Lu-[1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid-Re-Cys(3,4,10), d-Phe(7), Arg(11)]alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone(3-13) {DOTA-Re(Arg(11))CCMSH} through coupling a negatively charged glutamic acid (Glu) to the peptide sequence. METHODS: A new peptide of DOTA-Re(Glu(2), Arg(11))CCMSH was designed, synthesized and labeled with (90)Y and (177)Lu. Pharmacokinetics of (90)Y- and (177)Lu-DOTA-Re(Glu(2), Arg(11))CCMSH was determined in B16/F1 murine melanoma-bearing C57 mice. RESULTS: (90)Y- and (177)Lu-DOTA-Re(Glu(2), Arg(11))CCMSH exhibited significantly (P<.05) less renal uptake values than (90)Y- and (177)Lu-DOTA-Re(Arg(11))CCMSH at 30 min and at 2, 4 and 24 h after dose administration. The renal uptake values of (90)Y- and (177)Lu-DOTA-Re(Glu(2), Arg(11))CCMSH were 28.16% and 28.81% of those of (90)Y- and (177)Lu-DOTA-Re(Arg(11))CCMSH, respectively, at 4 h postinjection. (90)Y- and (177)Lu-DOTA-Re(Glu(2), Arg(11))CCMSH displayed higher tumor-to-kidney uptake ratios than (90)Y- and (177)Lu-DOTA-Re(Arg(11))CCMSH at 30 min and at 2, 4 and 24 h after dose administration. The tumor-to-kidney uptake ratio of (90)Y- and (177)Lu-DOTA-Re(Glu(2), Arg(11))CCMSH was 2.28 and 1.69 times of (90)Y- and (177)Lu-DOTA-Re(Arg(11))CCMSH, respectively, at 4 h postinjection. The (90)Y- and (177)Lu-DOTA-Re(Glu(2), Arg(11))CCMSH activity accumulation was low in normal organs except for kidney. CONCLUSIONS: Coupling a negatively charged amino acid (Glu) to the CCMSH peptide sequence dramatically reduced the renal uptake values and increased the tumor-to-kidney uptake ratios of (90)Y- and (177)Lu-DOTA-Re(Glu(2), Arg(11))CCMSH, facilitating their potential applications as radiopharmaceuticals for targeted radionuclide therapy of melanoma.
