Radiosynthesis, biodistribution and imaging of [11C]YM155, a novel survivin suppressant, in a human prostate tumor-xenograft mouse model.

Sepantronium bromide (YM155) is an antitumor drug in development and is a first-in-class chemical entity, which is a survivin suppressant. We developed a radiosynthesis of [(11)C]YM155 to non-invasively evaluate its tissue and tumor distribution in mice bearing human prostate tumor xenografts.. Methods utilizing [(11)C]acetyl chloride and [(11)C]methyl triflate, both accessible with automated radiosynthesis boxes, were evaluated. The O-methylation of ethanolamine-alkolate with [(11)C]methyl triflate proved to be the key development toward a rapid and efficient process. The whole-body distribution of [(11)C]YM155 in PC-3 xenografted mice was examined using a planar positron imaging system (PPIS).. Sufficient quantities of radiopharmaceutical grade [(11)C]YM155 were produced for our PET imaging and distribution studies. The decay corrected (EOB) radiochemical yield was 16-22%, within a synthesis time of 47 min. The radiochemical purity was higher than 99%, and the specific activity was 29-60 GBq/μmol (EOS).
