Popis: | Targeted radiopharmaceutical therapy (TRT) using α-particle radiation is a promising approach for treating both large and micrometastatic lesions. We developed prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)–targeted low-molecular-weight agents for (212)Pb-based TRT of patients with prostate cancer (PC) by evaluating the matching γ-emitting surrogate, (203)Pb. Methods: Five rationally designed low-molecular-weight ligands (L1-L5) were synthesized using the lysine-urea-glutamate scaffold, and PSMA inhibition constants were determined. Tissue biodistribution and SPECT/CT imaging of (203)Pb-L1–(203)Pb-L5 were performed on mice bearing PSMA(+) PC3 PIP and PSMA(−) PC3 flu flank xenografts. The absorbed radiation dose of the corresponding (212)Pb-labeled analogs was determined using the biodistribution data. Antitumor efficacy of (212)Pb-L2 was evaluated in PSMA(+) PC3 PIP and PSMA(−) PC3 flu tumor models and in the PSMA(+) luciferase-expressing micrometastatic model. (212)Pb-L2 was also evaluated for dose-escalated, long-term toxicity. Results: All new ligands were obtained in high yield and purity. PSMA inhibitory activities ranged from 0.10 to 17 nM. (203)Pb-L1–(203)Pb-L5 were synthesized in high radiochemical yield and specific activity. Whole-body clearance of (203)Pb-L1–(203)Pb-L5 was fast. The absorbed dose coefficients (mGy/kBq) of the tumor and kidneys were highest for (203)Pb-L5 (31.0, 15.2) and lowest for (203)Pb-L2 (8.0, 4.2). The tumor-to-kidney absorbed dose ratio was higher for (203)Pb-L3 (3.2) and (203)Pb-L4 (3.6) than for the other agents, but with lower tumor-to-blood ratios. PSMA(+) tumor lesions were visualized through SPECT/CT as early as 0.5 h after injection. A proof-of-concept therapy study with a single administration of (212)Pb-L2 demonstrated dose-dependent inhibition of tumor growth in the PSMA(+) flank tumor model. (212)Pb-L2 also demonstrated an increased survival benefit in the micrometastatic model compared with (177)Lu-PSMA-617. Long-term toxicity studies in healthy, immunocompetent CD-1 mice revealed kidney as the dose-limiting organ. Conclusion: (203)Pb-L1–(203)Pb-L5 demonstrated favorable pharmacokinetics for (212)Pb-based TRT. The antitumor efficacy of (212)Pb-L2 supports the corresponding (203)Pb/(212)Pb theranostic pair for PSMA-based α-particle TRT in advanced PC. |
