Copper is unusual among common metallic PETradionuclides:
1. Has facile conversion between two oxidation states2. Is an essential biological metal

BifunctionalBifunctional LigandLigand Design CriteriaDesign Criteria
• Cu species completely stable with respect to ligandexchange/loss despite possible redox
• Reasonable ligand synthesis with easy incorporationof conjugation sites (Carboxyl/amino/acetyleneetc)
• For sensitive biomolecules and (62-Cu) radiolabellingneeds to be high radiochemical yield, rapid, at roomtemperature, post conjugation. Facile separation ofany excess ligand.
![Page 6: Radiolabelling Biomolecules with Copper · left diamsar derivative right DOTA DOTA-DGEA conjugates much less stable then diamsar – competition issues with carboxylates on peptide](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051509/5adffd207f8b9a5a668cfa2f/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Coping with the Cu(II)/Cu(I)Coping with the Cu(II)/Cu(I) redoxredox/copper/copperbiochemistrybiochemistry
1. Ligands which give stable Cu(II) and even ifredox not reversible Cu(I) retained
2. Stable Cu(II) complexes which cannot bebiologically reduced to Cu(I)
3. Both Cu(II) and Cu(I) forms stable with fullyreversible redox
4. Stable Cu(I) complexes which cannot bebiologically oxidised to Cu(II)
Is it necessarily a disadvantage to lose the Cu?

Conjugate with peptides has one carboxylate coordinated (is theamide involved?) but still shows high in vivo stability. Strong stericshielding. Increasing chain length for carboxylate has little impacton stability. Radiolabelling 40-60o for 1h (MAb’s??)

ConclusionsConclusions
Cross-bridged cyclams and Diamsar show good in vitroand in vivo behaviour. Possible issue of labellingconditions?
Cu diamidediamino macrocycle shows promising labellingand biodistribution in preliminary results
Cu bis(thiosemicarbazonates) can be used for the rapidRT Cu radiolabelling and show retention of specificityin vitro and in vivo. Metabolites?
