The Role of Molecular Imaging in Patients with Brain Metastases: A Literature Review. Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:cancers15072184. [PMID: 37046845 PMCID: PMC10093739 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15072184] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2023] [Revised: 03/28/2023] [Accepted: 04/03/2023] [Indexed: 04/14/2023] Open
Abstract
Over the last several years, molecular imaging has gained a primary role in the evaluation of patients with brain metastases (BM). Therefore, the "Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology" (RANO) group recommends amino acid radiotracers for the assessment of BM. Our review summarizes the current use of positron emission tomography (PET) radiotracers in patients with BM, ranging from present to future perspectives with new PET radiotracers, including the role of radiomics and potential theranostics approaches. A comprehensive search of PubMed results was conducted. All studies published in English up to and including December 2022 were reviewed. Current evidence confirms the important role of amino acid PET radiotracers for the delineation of BM extension, for the assessment of response to therapy, and particularly for the differentiation between tumor progression and radionecrosis. The newer radiotracers explore non-invasively different biological tumor processes, although more consistent findings in larger clinical trials are necessary to confirm preliminary results. Our review illustrates the role of molecular imaging in patients with BM. Along with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), the gold standard for diagnosis of BM, PET is a useful complementary technique for processes that otherwise cannot be obtained from anatomical MRI alone.

Production of zirconium-88 via proton irradiation of metallic yttrium and preparation of target for neutron transmission measurements at DICER. Sci Rep 2023; 13:1736. [PMID: 36720963 PMCID: PMC9889377 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-27993-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2022] [Accepted: 01/11/2023] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
A process for the production of tens to hundreds of GBq amounts of zirconium-88 (88Zr) using proton beams on yttrium was developed. For this purpose, yttrium metal targets (≈20 g) were irradiated in a ~16 to 34 MeV proton beam at a beam current of 100-200 µA at the Los Alamos Isotope Production Facility (IPF). The 88Zr radionuclide was produced and separated from the yttrium targets using hydroxamate resin with an elution yield of 94(5)% (1σ). Liquid DCl solution in D2O was selected as a suitable 88Zr sample matrix due to the high neutron transmission of deuterium compared to hydrogen and an even distribution of 88Zr in the sample matrix. The separated 88Zr was dissolved in DCl and 8 µL of the obtained solution was transferred to a tungsten sample can with a 1.2 mm diameter hole using a syringe and automated filling station inside a hot cell. Neutron transmission of the obtained 88Zr sample was measured at the Device for Indirect Capture Experiments on Radionuclides (DICER).

Abstract
Immuno-positron emission tomography (immunoPET) is a non-invasive in vivo imaging method based on tracking and quantifying radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and other related molecules, such as antibody fragments, nanobodies, or affibodies. However, the success of immunoPET in neuroimaging is limited because intact antibodies cannot penetrate the blood-brain barrier (BBB). In neuro-oncology, immunoPET has been successfully applied to brain tumors because of the compromised BBB. Different strategies, such as changes in antibody properties, use of physiological mechanisms in the BBB, or induced changes to BBB permeability, have been developed to deliver antibodies to the brain. These approaches have recently started to be applied in preclinical central nervous system PET studies. Therefore, immunoPET could be a new approach for developing more specific PET probes directed to different brain targets.

Abstract
Immuno-positron emission tomography (immunoPET) is a molecular imaging modality combining the high sensitivity of PET with the specific targeting ability of monoclonal antibodies. Various radioimmunotracers have been successfully developed to target a broad spectrum of molecules expressed by malignant cells or tumor microenvironments. Only a few are translated into clinical studies and barely into clinical practices. Some drawbacks include slow radioimmunotracer kinetics, high physiologic uptake in lymphoid organs, and heterogeneous activity in tumoral lesions. Measures are taken to overcome the disadvantages, and new tracers are being developed. In this review, we aim to mention the fundamental components of immunoPET imaging, explore the groundbreaking success achieved using this new technique, and review different radioimmunotracers employed in various solid tumors to elaborate on this relatively new imaging modality.

Front Immunol 2022; 13:885424. [PMID: 35837391 PMCID: PMC9273722 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2022.885424] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2022] [Accepted: 05/30/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Claudin 18.2 (CLDN18.2), a tight junction (TJ) family protein controlling molecule exchange between cells, is frequently over-expressed in gastric cancer, pancreatic adenocarcinomas and in a fraction of non–small cell lung cancer cases. The tumor properties indicate that CLDN18.2 could be an attractive drug target for gastric and pancreatic cancers. In this study, we present effective strategies for developing anti-CLDN18.2 therapeutic candidates, based on variable domain of heavy chain of heavy chain antibodies (VHHs). CLDN18.2-specific VHHs were isolated by panning a phage display library from an alpaca immunized with a stable cell line highly expressing CLDN18.2. Humanized VHHs fused with human IgG1 Fc, as potential therapeutic candidates, exhibited desirable binding specificity and affinity to CLDN18.2. In vitro experiments showed that hu7v3-Fc was capable of eliciting both antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) on CLDN18.2 positive tumor cells. In the mouse xenograft model, the anti-tumor efficacy of hu7v3-Fc was significantly more potent than Zolbetuximab, the benchmark anti-CLDN18.2 monoclonal antibody. Moreover, in vivo biodistribution using zirconium-89 (89Zr) labeled antibodies demonstrated that hu7v3-Fc (89Zr-hu7v3-Fc) exhibited a better tumor penetration and a faster tumor uptake than Zolbetuximab (89Zr-Zolbetuximab), which might be attributed to its smaller size and higher affinity. Taken together, anti-CDLN18.2 hu7v3-Fc is a promising therapeutic agent for human CLDN18.2 positive cancers. Furthermore, hu7v3 has emerged as a potential module for novel CLDN18.2 related therapeutics.

Abstract
Therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals have been researched extensively in the last decade as a result of the growing research interest in personalized medicine to improve diagnostic accuracy and intensify intensive therapy while limiting side effects. Radiometal-based drugs are of substantial interest because of their greater versatility for clinical translation compared to non-metal radionuclides. This paper comprehensively discusses various components commonly used as chemical scaffolds to build radiopharmaceutical agents, i.e., radionuclides, pharmacokinetic-modifying linkers, and chelators, whose characteristics are explained and can be used as a guide for the researcher.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Neuroendocrine carcinomas are very aggressive tumors with few treatment options. DLL3 seems to be an optimal target for therapeutic intervention, as it is expressed mainly on the membrane of tumor cells with neuroendocrine origin. AREAS COVERED In this article, we outline the preclinical and clinical studies published in the last years on DLL3 in neuroendocrine neoplasm, above all of lung origin. Furthermore, we review the current literature on the interaction between DLL3 and the tumor microenvironment. EXPERT OPINION Several DLL3-targeting strategies have been proposed in the last years with mixed results. Understanding the influence of DLL3 on the tumor (immune) microenvironment and developing adoptive therapies directed against this optimal target might represent the key strategy. Building on the clinical data obtained so far, future trials on in vivo diagnostic tools for predictive purpose and new specific therapies are needed.

Abstract
Abstract
Indium-111 (111In) has an appropriate half-life (T
1/2 = 67 h) and energy characteristics for cancer diagnosis via γ-ray imaging and cancer therapy with Auger electrons. The aim of our study is to evaluate the potential of [111In]In-DO3A-NHS-nimotuzumab as a theranostic agent for radioimmunoimaging (RII) and radioimmunotherapy (RIT) against human glioma xenografts in mice. We explored the chelators DO3A-NHS and DOTA-p-SCN-Bz to optimize 111In radiolabeling efficiency of nimotuzumab. The radiopharmaceuticals were purified by PD-10 mini-column and their in vitro stabilities were assessed. We investigated the biodistribution of [111In]In-DO3A-NHS-nimotuzumab as it had relatively superior labeling efficiency and stability in vitro. We conducted SPECT imaging on mice bearing glioma (U87MG) xenografts, which were injected with ∼3.7 MBq of [111In]In-DO3A-NHS-nimotuzumab. The in vivo radiotherapeutic effects of [111In]In-DO3A-NHS-nimotuzumab was analyzed via injecting a single 37 MBq dose, 2 × 18 MBq doses, or 2 × 37 MBq doses into mice bearing U87MG xenografts. The control groups were administered either 30 μg nimotuzumab or saline. The radiochemical yields of [111In]In-DO3A-NHS-nimotuzumab and [111In]In-DOTA-p-SCN-Bz-nimotuzumab were > 85% and > 75%, respectively. [111In]In-DO3A-NHS-nimotuzumab had > 95% radiochemical purity and was more stable in vitro than [111In]In-DOTA-p-SCN-Bz-nimotuzumab. Biodistribution study demonstrated that [111In]In-DO3A-NHS-nimotuzumab was highly stable in vivo. SPECT imaging disclosed that [111In]In-DO3A-NHS-nimotuzumab had excellent targeted tumor uptake and retained in tumors for 24 and 72 h. All [111In]In-DO3A-NHS-nimotuzumab treatments substantially inhibited tumor growth over the controls. The 2 × 37 MBq treatment was particularly efficacious, and presented with survival time prolonged by ≤66 days. In contrast, the survival time of the control group was only 30 days. In our study, we developed an optimized synthesis protocol for radiopharmaceutical 111In-DO3A-NHS-nimotuzumab and demonstrated that it is a promising theranostic agent. It could be highly efficacious in RII and RIT against EGFR-expressing glioma.

Abstract
Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) and integrin αv are over-expressed in angiogenesis of variety malignant tumors with key roles in angiogenesis, and have been proven as valuable targets for cancer imaging and treatment. In this study, a heterodimeric peptide targeting VEGFR and integrin was designed, and radiolabeled with zirconium-89 (89Zr) for PET imaging of glioma. 89Zr-DFO-heterodimeric peptide, a the newly developed probe, was prepared with radiochemical yield of 88.7 ± 2.4%. Targeted binding capability of 89Zr-DFO-heterodimeric peptide towards U87MG cells was investigated in murine glioma xenograft models, which shows that the designed probe has good binding ability to both targeting sites. Biodistribution indicated that kidney metabolism is the main pathway and tumor uptake of 89Zr-DFO-heterodimeric peptide reached the peak of 0.62 ± 0.10% ID/g . U87MG xenograft could be clearly visualized by microPET/CT imaging through 1 to 3 h post-injection of 89Zr-DFO-heterodimeric peptide. Importantly, the tumor radiouptake was significantly reduced after blocking, and the imaging effect of this radioactive compound was more obvious than that of monomeric peptide probes. 89Zr-DFO-heterodimeric peptide has been demonstrated to show potential as a new radiopharmaceutical probe towards glioma, and multi-target probes do have advantages in tumor imaging.

Abstract
PURPOSE The objective of this review was to explore the potential clinical application of unconventional non-amino acid PET radiopharmaceuticals in patients with gliomas. METHODS A comprehensive search strategy was used based on SCOPUS and PubMed databases using the following string: ("perfusion" OR "angiogenesis" OR "hypoxia" OR "neuroinflammation" OR proliferation OR invasiveness) AND ("brain tumor" OR "glioma") AND ("Positron Emission Tomography" OR PET). From all studies published in English, the most relevant articles were selected for this review, evaluating the mostly used PET radiopharmaceuticals in research centers, beyond amino acid radiotracers and 2-[18F]fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose ([18F]FDG), for the assessment of different biological features, such as perfusion, angiogenesis, hypoxia, neuroinflammation, cell proliferation, tumor invasiveness, and other biological characteristics in patients with glioma. RESULTS At present, the use of non-amino acid PET radiopharmaceuticals specifically designed to assess perfusion, angiogenesis, hypoxia, neuroinflammation, cell proliferation, tumor invasiveness, and other biological features in glioma is still limited. CONCLUSION The use of investigational PET radiopharmaceuticals should be further explored considering their promising potential and studies specifically designed to validate these preliminary findings are needed. In the clinical scenario, advancements in the development of new PET radiopharmaceuticals and new imaging technologies (e.g., PET/MR and the application of the artificial intelligence to medical images) might contribute to improve the clinical translation of these novel radiotracers in the assessment of gliomas.

Abstract
Gliomas, particularly high-grade gliomas including glioblastoma (GBM), represent the most common and malignant types of primary brain cancer in adults, and carry a poor prognosis. GBM has been classified into distinct subgroups over the years based on cellular morphology, clinical characteristics, biomarkers, and neuroimaging findings. Based on these classifications, differences in therapeutic response and patient outcomes have been established. Recently, the identification of complex molecular signatures of GBM has led to the development of diverse targeted therapeutic regimens and translation into multiple clinical trials. Chemical-, peptide-, antibody-, and nanoparticle-based probes have been designed to target specific molecules in gliomas and then be visualized with multimodality molecular imaging (MI) techniques including positron emission tomography (PET), single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF), bioluminescence imaging (BLI), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Thus, multiple molecules of interest can now be noninvasively imaged to guide targeted therapies with a potential survival benefit. Here, we review developments in molecular-targeted diagnosis and therapy in glioma, MI of these targets, and MI monitoring of treatment response, with a focus on the biological mechanisms of these advanced molecular probes. MI probes have the potential to noninvasively demonstrate the pathophysiologic features of glioma for diagnostic, treatment, and response assessment considerations for various targeted therapies, including immunotherapy. However, most MI tracers are in preclinical development, with only integrin αVβ3 and isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)-mutant MI tracers having been translated to patients. Expanded international collaborations would accelerate translational research in the field of glioma MI.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Radioimmunotherapy (RIT) is a major anti-cancer therapy in cancer management multimodalities. 177Lu-Nimotuzumab has been in the use for radioimmunotherapy of EGFR expressing tumors. This study focuses on understanding the differential cellular and molecular mechanisms of anti-tumor effects of 177Lu-Nimotuzumab on low EGFR expressing A549 and high EGFR expressing A431 tumor cells. MATERIALS AND METHODS Nimotuzumab labeled with 177Lu was characterized by SE-HPLC. Specificity of 177Lu-Nimotuzumab to EGFR expressed on A549 and A431 cells was confirmed by competitive assay using increasing amounts of unlabeled Nimotuzumab. Cellular responses of A549 (low EGFR) and A431 (high EGFR) in response to different doses of 177Lu-Nimotuzumab were determined by Viable count assay for cellular viability, cell-cycle analysis by DNA staining, apoptotic assay for cell death, and CFSE dilution assay for cellular proliferation capacity. The number of DNA DSBs formed was determined using γ-H2AX assay with PI staining. Transcription of genes involved in DNA damage response and repair (DRR) pathways was monitored by RT-qPCR. RESULTS 177Lu-Nimotuzumab characterized by SE-HPLC exhibited a radiochemical purity of 99.1 ± 0.6%. Cell binding competition studies with 177Lu-Nimotuzumab showed specific binding of 34.3 ± 1.7% with A431 cells and 18.4 ± 1.9% with A549 cells which decreased when co-incubated with unlabeled Nimotuzumab. Cytotoxicity and DNA damage (DNA DSBs) increased with an increase in the dose of 177Lu-Nimotuzumab. A549 displayed G2/M arrest while A431 showed G1 arrest. Apoptotic death was determined to be one of the modes of death of arrested A549 and A431 cells which increases with the increase in the dose of 177Lu-Nimotuzumab. Loss of proliferation capacity was higher in A431 showed by CFSE staining at different doses of 177Lu-Nimotuzumab. Transcription profile of most DRR genes in A431 and A549 showed a decrease in the transcription at 4 h followed by recovery at 16 h post-treatment. The degree of transcription of most DRR genes was similar, irrespective of 177Lu-Nimotuzumab dose. CONCLUSION 177Lu-Nimotuzumab induces different cellular arrest and molecular responses in low EGFR expressing A549 and high EGFR expressing A431 tumor cells. This study would enable the development of integrative novel treatment strategies for radioimmunotherapy in low and high EGFR expressing tumors by 177Lu-Nimotuzumab with therapeutic gains.

Abstract
The number of positron-emission tomography (PET) tracers used to evaluate patients with brain tumors has increased substantially over the last years. For the management of patients with brain tumors, the most important indications are the delineation of tumor extent (e.g., for planning of resection or radiotherapy), the assessment of treatment response to systemic treatment options such as alkylating chemotherapy, and the differentiation of treatment-related changes (e.g., pseudoprogression or radiation necrosis) from tumor progression. Furthermore, newer PET imaging approaches aim to address the need for noninvasive assessment of tumoral immune cell infiltration and response to immunotherapies (e.g., T-cell imaging). This review summarizes the clinical value of the landscape of tracers that have been used in recent years for the above-mentioned indications and also provides an overview of promising newer tracers for this group of patients.

Abstract
Immuno-positron emission tomography (immunoPET) is a paradigm-shifting molecular imaging modality combining the superior targeting specificity of monoclonal antibody (mAb) and the inherent sensitivity of PET technique. A variety of radionuclides and mAbs have been exploited to develop immunoPET probes, which has been driven by the development and optimization of radiochemistry and conjugation strategies. In addition, tumor-targeting vectors with a short circulation time (e.g., Nanobody) or with an enhanced binding affinity (e.g., bispecific antibody) are being used to design novel immunoPET probes. Accordingly, several immunoPET probes, such as 89Zr-Df-pertuzumab and 89Zr-atezolizumab, have been successfully translated for clinical use. By noninvasively and dynamically revealing the expression of heterogeneous tumor antigens, immunoPET imaging is gradually changing the theranostic landscape of several types of malignancies. ImmunoPET is the method of choice for imaging specific tumor markers, immune cells, immune checkpoints, and inflammatory processes. Furthermore, the integration of immunoPET imaging in antibody drug development is of substantial significance because it provides pivotal information regarding antibody targeting abilities and distribution profiles. Herein, we present the latest immunoPET imaging strategies and their preclinical and clinical applications. We also emphasize current conjugation strategies that can be leveraged to develop next-generation immunoPET probes. Lastly, we discuss practical considerations to tune the development and translation of immunoPET imaging strategies.
