Abstract
Boron neutron capture therapy is a perspective selective technology for the destruction of cancer cells, while the use of lithium instead of boron may represent a new and promising vector for the development of neutron capture therapy (NCT). The aim of the study was a comparative assessment of the cytotoxicity of various lithium salts, as well as an analysis of the accumulation of lithium in tumor cells in vitro to determine the possibility of using lithium in NCT. The cytotoxicity of lithium salts was determined using MTT-test and colony forming assay on human fibroblasts BJ-5ta, human skin melanoma SK-Mel-28, and mouse skin melanoma B16 cell lines. An assessment of lithium concentration in cells was performed using inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry. Our results showed that three different lithium salts at a concentration of 40 μg/ml are not toxic for both tumor and normal cells. The highest uptake values were obtained on murine melanoma B16 cells when exposed to lithium carbonate (0.8 μg/106 cells); however, human melanoma SK-Mel-28 cells effectively accumulated both lithium carbonate and lithium citrate (about 0.46 μg/106 cells for two salts). Thus, our results demonstrate a range of non-toxic doses of lithium salts and a high uptake of lithium by tumor cells, which indicates the possibility to use the lithium in NCT.

Recent Development of Radiofluorination of Boron Agents for Boron Neutron Capture Therapy of Tumor: Creation of 18F-Labeled C-F and B-F Linkages. Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2023; 16:ph16010093. [PMID: 36678590 PMCID: PMC9866017 DOI: 10.3390/ph16010093] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/18/2022] [Revised: 12/27/2022] [Accepted: 01/03/2023] [Indexed: 01/11/2023] Open
Abstract
Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a binary therapeutic technique employing a boron agent to be delivered to the tumor site followed by the irradiation of neutrons. Biofunctional molecules/nanoparticles labeled with F-18 can provide an initial pharmacokinetic profile of patients to guide the subsequent treatment planning procedure of BNCT. Borono phenylalanine (BPA), recognized by the l-type amino acid transporter, can cross the blood-brain barrier and be accumulated in gliomas. The radiofluoro BNCT agents are reviewed by considering (1) less cytotoxicity, (2) diagnosing and therapeutic purposes, (3) aqueous solubility and extraction route, as well as (4), the trifluoroborate effect. A trifluoroborate-containing amino acid such as fluoroboronotyrosine (FBY) represents an example with both functionalities of imaging and therapeutics. Comparing with the insignificant cytotoxicity of clinical BPA with IC50 > 500 μM, FBY also shows minute toxicity with IC50 > 500 μM. [18F]FBY is a potential diagnostic agent for its tumor to normal accumulation (T/N) ratio, which ranges from 2.3 to 24.5 from positron emission tomography, whereas the T/N ratio of FBPA is greater than 2.5. Additionally, in serving as a BNCT therapeutic agent, the boron concentration of FBY accumulated in gliomas remains uncertain. The solubility of 3-BPA is better than that of BPA, as evidenced by the cerebral dose of 3.4%ID/g vs. 2.2%ID/g, respectively. While the extraction route of d-BPA differs from that of BPA, an impressive T/N ratio of 6.9 vs. 1.5 is noted. [18F]FBPA, the most common clinical boron agent, facilitates the application of BPA in clinical BNCT. In addition to [18F]FBY, [18F] trifluoroborated nucleoside analog obtained through 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition shows marked tumoral uptake of 1.5%ID/g. Other examples using electrophilic and nucleophilic fluorination on the boron compounds are also reviewed, including diboronopinacolone phenylalanine and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents.

Abstract
Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT), a cellular-level particle radiation therapy, combines boron compounds selectively delivered to tumor tissue with neutron irradiation. Boronophenylalanine (BPA) is a boron compound widely used in malignant melanoma, malignant brain tumors, and recurrent head and neck cancer. However, neither basic nor clinical research was reported for the treatment of gastric cancer using BPA. Selective distribution of boron in tumors rather than that in blood or normal tissue prior to neutron irradiation is required for the successful treatment of BNCT. This study evaluated the pharmacokinetics and safety of 10B-labeled BPA (10B-BPA, abbreviated as BPA) and its uptakes in gastric cancer. Pharmacokinetics and safety were evaluated in Sprague–Dawley (SD) rats intravenously injected with BPA. The uptakes of boron in gastric cancer cell line MKN45 and in cell-derived xenografts (CDX) and patient-derived xenografts (PDX) animal models were measured. The results showed that the boron concentration in the blood of rats decreased fast in the first 30 min followed by a steady decrease following the observation time, having a half-life of 44.11 ± 8.90 min and an AUC-last of 815.05 ± 62.09 min×μg/ml. The distribution of boron in different tissues (heart, liver, lung, stomach, and small intestine) of rats revealed a similar pattern in blood except for that in the brain, kidney, and bladder. In MKN45 cells, boron concentration increased in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. In both CDX and PDX animal models, the boron is preferentially distributed in tumor tissue rather than in blood or normal tissues. In addition, BPA had no significant adverse effects in rats. Taken together, the results suggested that BPA revealed a fast decrease in boron concentration in rats and is more likely to distribute in tumor cells and tissue.

Polymer-Stabilized Elemental Boron Nanoparticles for Boron Neutron Capture Therapy: Initial Irradiation Experiments. Pharmaceutics 2022; 14:pharmaceutics14040761.

Abstract
Sufficient boron-10 isotope (10B) accumulation by tumor cells is one of the main requirements for successful boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT). The inability of the clinically registered 10B-containing borophenylalanine (BPA) to maintain a high boron tumor concentration during neutron irradiation after a single injection has been partially solved by its continuous infusion; however, its lack of persistence has driven the development of new compounds that overcome the imperfections of BPA. We propose using elemental boron nanoparticles (eBNPs) synthesized by cascade ultrasonic dispersion and destruction of elemental boron microparticles and stabilized with hydroxyethylcellulose (HEC) as a core component of a novel boron drug for BNCT. These HEC particles are stable in aqueous media and show no apparent influence on U251, U87, and T98G human glioma cell proliferation without neutron beam irradiation. In BNCT experiments, cells incubated with eBNPs or BPA at an equivalent concentration of 40 µg 10B/mL for 24 h or control cells without boron were irradiated at an accelerator-based neutron source with a total fluence of thermal and epithermal neutrons of 2.685, 5.370, or 8.055 × 1012/cm2. The eBNPs significantly reduced colony-forming capacity in all studied cells during BNCT compared to BPA, verified by cell-survival curves fit to the linear-quadratic model and calculated radiobiological parameters, though the effect of both compounds differed depending on the cell line. The results of our study warrant further tumor targeting-oriented modifications of synthesized nanoparticles and subsequent in vivo BNCT experiments.

Dose-Dependent Suppression of Human Glioblastoma Xenograft Growth by Accelerator-Based Boron Neutron Capture Therapy with Simultaneous Use of Two Boron-Containing Compounds. BIOLOGY 2021; 10:biology10111124. [PMID: 34827117 PMCID: PMC8615214 DOI: 10.3390/biology10111124] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2021] [Revised: 10/21/2021] [Accepted: 10/28/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Simple Summary Accelerator-based boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) has opened up new perspectives in increasing cancer treatment efficacy, including malignant brain tumors and particularly glioblastoma. We studied dosimetry control optimization, neutron beam parameter adjustment, and two boron compound combinations (along with single and double irradiation regimens) to assess safety and increase therapy efficacy, using a U87MG xenotransplant immunodeficient mouse model. In two sets of experiments, we achieved increases in tumor-growth inhibition (to 80–83%), a neutron capture therapy ratio of 2:1 (two times higher neutron capture therapy efficacy than neutron irradiation without boron), and increases in animal life expectancy, from 9 to 107 days, by treatment parameter adjustment. These results will contribute to the development of clinical-trial protocols for accelerator-based BNCT and further innovations in this cancer treatment method. Abstract (1) Background: Developments in accelerator-based neutron sources moved boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) to the next phase, where new neutron radiation parameters had to be studied for the treatment of cancers, including brain tumors. We aimed to further improve accelerator-BNCT efficacy by optimizing dosimetry control, beam parameters, and combinations of boronophenylalanine (BPA) and sodium borocaptate (BSH) administration in U87MG xenograft-bearing immunodeficient mice with two different tumor locations. (2) Methods: The study included two sets of experiments. In Experiment #1, BPA only and single or double irradiation in higher doses were used, while, in Experiment #2, BPA and BSH combinations and single or double irradiation with dosage adjustment were analyzed. Mice without treatment or irradiation after BPA or BPA+BSH injection were used as controls. (3) Results: Irradiation parameter adjustment and BPA and BSH combination led to 80–83% tumor-growth inhibition index scores, irradiation:BNCT ratios of 1:2, and increases in animal life expectancy from 9 to 107 days. (4) Conclusions: Adjustments in dosimetry control, calculation of irradiation doses, and combined use of two 10B compounds allowed for BNCT optimization that will be useful in the development of clinical-trial protocols for accelerator-based BNCT.

Abstract
Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is an anticancer modality realized through 10B accumulation in tumor cells, neutron irradiation of the tumor, and decay of boron atoms with the release of alpha-particles and lithium nuclei that damage tumor cell DNA. As high-LET particle release takes place inside tumor cells absorbed dose calculations are difficult, since no essential extracellular energy is emitted. We placed gold nanoparticles inside tumor cells saturated with boron to more accurately measure the absorbed dose. T98G cells accumulated ~50 nm gold nanoparticles (AuNPs, 50 µg gold/mL) and boron-phenylalanine (BPA, 10, 20, 40 µg boron-10/mL), and were irradiated with a neutron flux of 3 × 108 cm−2s−1. Gamma-rays (411 keV) emitted by AuNPs in the cells were measured by a spectrometer and the absorbed dose was calculated using the formula D = (k × N × n)/m, where D was the absorbed dose (GyE), k—depth-related irradiation coefficient, N—number of activated gold atoms, n—boron concentration (ppm), and m—the mass of gold (g). Cell survival curves were fit to the linear-quadratic (LQ) model. We found no influence from the presence of the AuNPs on BNCT efficiency. Our approach will lead to further development of combined boron and high-Z element-containing compounds, and to further adaptation of isotope scanning for BNCT dosimetry.
