A PET probe targeting polyamine transport system for precise tumor diagnosis and therapy

Polyamine metabolism dysregulation is a hallmark of many cancers,offering a promising avenue for early tumor theranostics.This study presents the development of a nuclear probe derived from spermidine(SPM)for dual-purpose tumor PET imaging and internal radiation therapy.The probe,radiolabeled with either[68Ga]Ga for diagnostic applications or[177Lu]Lu for therapeutic use,was synthesized with exceptional purity,stability,and specific activity.Extensive testing involving 12 different tumor cell lines revealed remarkable specificity towards B16 melanoma cells,showcasing outstanding tumor localization and target-to-non-target ratio.Mechanistic investigations employing polyamines,non-labeled precursor,and polyamine transport system(PTS)inhibitor,consistently affirmed the probe's targetability through recognition of the PTS.Notably,while previous reports indicated PTS upregulation in various tumor types for targeted therapy,this study observed no positive signals,highlighting a concentration-dependent discrepancy between targeting for therapy and diagnosis.Furthermore,when labeled with[177Lu],the probe demonstrated its therapeutic potential by effectively controlling tumor growth and extending mouse survival.Investigations into biodistribution,excretion,and biosafety in healthy humans laid a robust foundation for clinical translation.This study introduces a versatile SPM-based nuclear probe with applications in precise tumor theranostics,offering promising prospects for clinical implementation.
