Automation of radiopharmaceutical preparation represents a way of reducing radiation doses to operators and providing good manufacturing practice-compliant manufacture of radiopharmaceuticals. Although widely adopted for PET radiochemical synthesis, such methods have not widely been used for the preparation of therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals. Here we describe an evaluation of an automated system for the preparation of radiolabelled antibodies. A labelling method based on the Modular Lab system was developed and applied to the radiolabelling of the monoclonal antibody conjugate, YAML568-CHX'A-DTPA, with indium-111. Antibodies were labelled using both manual and automated means and analysed by high-performance liquid chromatography and thin-layer chromatography methods. Radiochemical purities achieved using automation (mean 98%) were slightly lower than those achieved manually (mean 99%); however, the radiochemical purity obtained was reproducible and well within the set specification of greater than 95%. The Modular Lab system can be used to automate the radiolabelling of monoclonal antibody-chelate conjugates with metallic isotopes such as indium for the potential application for therapeutic radionuclide therapy.

Development of a novel molecular probe for visualizing mesothelin on the tumor via positron emission tomography.

Eur J Nucl Med Mol Imaging

January 2025

Institute of Radiation Medicine, Fudan University, Xietu Road 2094, Shanghai, 200032, China.

Objectives: Mesothelin (MSLN) is an antigen that is overexpressed in various cancers, and its interaction with tumor-associated cancer antigen 125 plays a multifaceted role in tumor metastasis. The serum MSLN expression level can be detected using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay; however, non-invasive visualization of its expression at the tumor site is currently lacking. Therefore, the aim of this study was to develop a molecular probe for imaging MSLN expression through positron emission tomography (PET).

Breast cancer is the most frequent non-dermatologic malignancy in women. Breast cancer is characterized by the expression of the human epidermal growth factor receptor type 2 (HER2), and the presence or lack of estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR) expression. HER2 overexpression is reported in about 20 to 25% of breast cancer patients, which is usually linked to cancer progression, metastases, and poor survival.

GD2-targeted theranostics of neuroblastoma with [Cu]Cu/[Lu]Lu-hu3F8.

Eur J Nucl Med Mol Imaging

December 2024

Department of Nuclear Medicine, Beijing Friendship Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University, 95 Yong'an Rd., Xicheng Dist, Beijing, 100050, China.

Purpose: Neuroblastoma (NB) is a malignant embryonic tumour with poor prognosis and high mortality rate. The antigen gisialoganglioside (GD2), which is highly expressed on the surface of NB cells, is an effective target for therapy. This study aims to evaluate the GD2 expression with [Cu]Cu-NOTA-hu3F8 positron emission tomography (PET) imaging and explore the radioimmunotherapy (RIT) effect of [Lu]Lu-DOTA-hu3F8 in NB tumour models.

Preclinical evaluation of 64Cu/177Lu-labelled anti-CD30 monoclonal antibody for theranostics in CD30-positive lymphoma.

Eur J Nucl Med Mol Imaging

December 2024

Department of Nuclear Medicine, Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University, 95 Yong An Road, Xi Cheng District, Beijing, 100050, China.

Purpose: CD30 serves as an ideal therapeutic target for lymphoma, but its variable expression and high relapse rate pose challenges in targeted therapy. This study aims to label the anti-CD30 monoclonal antibody with Cu/Lu for immuno-positron emission tomography (immuno-PET) and radioimmunotherapy (RIT).

Methods: CD30 binding kinetics of anti-CD30-IgG (IMB16) were measured by Biolayer interferometry (BLI).

Antibody-based therapies have emerged as a powerful strategy for the management of diverse cancers. Unfortunately, tumor-specific antigens remain challenging to identify and target. Recent work established that inhibitor-modified peptide adducts derived from KRAS G12C are competent for antigen presentation via MHC I and can be targeted by antibody-based therapeutics, offering a means to directly target an intracellular oncoprotein at the cell surface with combination therapies.
