Description
Macrocyclic chelators, pharmaceutical compositions and biomedical applications Technical Field Provided herein are macrocyclic chelators and their conjugates with target-binding moieties. Also provided herein are pharmaceutical compositions comprising the conjugates and their diagnostic and/or therapeutic uses. Background Radiotherapy diagnostics combining molecular imaging with targeted radionuclide therapy is an emerging tumor targeted therapy. Sgouros et al, nat.Rev.drug discovery.2020, 19,589-608; bodei et al, nat.Rev.Clin.Oncol.2022,19,534-50; salih et al, molecules 2022,27,5231. One key aspect of radiation therapy diagnostics is the selection of patients for radiation targeted therapy based on imaging of the same target region, and thus imaging and therapeutic intervention are closely related. Herrmann et al, lancet Oncol.2020,21, e146-e156, song et al, theranostics2024,14,2464-88. Common radioconjugates for radiotherapy diagnostics are designed with alpha-, beta-or auger electron emitters to cancer by linking a target ligand, such as a small molecule, peptide or antibody, to a bifunctional chelator that complexes with radionuclides for systemic delivery. Caers et al, front. Immunol.2022,13,911080; song et al, theranostics, 2024,14,2464-88. Bifunctional chelators are essential components of metal-based radio-conjugates that are capable of forming a stable complex with a metal radionuclide and binding it to a target ligand. Sneddon and Cornelissen et al, curr.Opin.chem.biol.2021,63,152-62; shalgunov et al, nucl.Med.biol.2022,104,11-21.1,4,7, 10-tetraazacyclododecane-1, 4,7, 10-tetraacetic acid (DOTA) is currently a series of gold standard chelators of radiometals, but its chelation typically requires harsh conditions, which can be problematic when radiolabeled chelators are attached to biological target ligands, such as peptides or antibodies. Sneddon and Cornelissen et al, curr.Opin.chem.biol.2021,63,152-62. Ideal chelators would allow rapid radiolabeling under mild conditions (e.g., near neutral pH and low temperature) and be thermodynamically and kinetically stable. As above. Despite advances in cancer treatment, cancer remains a major global public health problem. It was estimated that in 2024, there would be 2,001,140 newly diagnosed cancer cases and 611,720 cancer death cases in the united states alone. CANCERFACTS & Figures 2024. Thus, the need for effective cancer therapies has not been met. Bodei et al, nat.Rev.Clin.Oncol.2022,19,534-50; ganguly et al, J.Nucl.Med.2023,64,639-44.
