Abstract

Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging with antibody-based contrast agents frequently uses the radioisotopes [{64}^Cu]Cu^{2+} and [{89}^Zr]Zr^{4+}. The macrobicyclic chelator commonly known as sarcophagine (sar) is ideal for labeling receptor-targeted biomolecules with [{64}^Cu]Cu^{2+}. The siderophore chelator, desferrioxamine-B (dfo), has been widely used to incorporate [{89}^Zr]Zr^{4+}, respectively, in near quantitative radiochemical yield (>99%). Serum stability studies, in vivo PET imaging, and biodistribution analyses using these radiolabeled immunoconjugates demonstrate that both [{64}^Cu]Cu-sar–dtm–trastuzumab and [{89}^Zr]Zr-dfo–dtm–trastuzumab possess high stability in biological milieu. Dibromomaleimide technology can be easily applied to enable stable, site-specific attachment of radiolabeled chelators, such as sar and dfo, to native interstrand disulfide regions of antibodies, enabling tracking of antibodies with PET imaging.
