99mTc-NTP 15-5 is a companion radiotracer for assessing joint functional response to sprifermin (rhFGF-18) in a murine osteoarthritis model. Sci Rep 2022; 12:8146. [PMID: 35581224 PMCID: PMC9113995 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-11080-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/19/2021] [Accepted: 04/13/2022] [Indexed: 02/03/2023] Open
Abstract
With the emergence of disease modifying osteoarthritis drugs (DMOAD), imaging methods to quantitatively demonstrate their efficacy and to monitor osteoarthritis progression at the functional level are urgently needed. Our group showed that articular cartilage can be quantitatively assessed in nuclear medicine imaging by our radiotracer 99mTc-NTP 15-5 targeting cartilage proteoglycans. In this work, surgically induced DMM mice were treated with sprifermin or saline. We investigated cartilage remodelling in the mice knees by 99mTc-NTP 15-5 SPECT-CT imaging over 24 weeks after surgery, as wells as proteoglycan biochemical assays. OA alterations were scored by histology according to OARSI guidelines. A specific accumulation of 99mTc-NTP 15-5 in cartilage joints was evidenced in vivo by SPECT-CT imaging as early as 30 min post-iv injection. In DMM, 99mTc-NTP 15-5 accumulation in cartilage within the operated joints, relative to contralateral ones, was observed to initially increase then decrease as pathology progressed. Under sprifermin, 99mTc-NTP 15-5 uptake in pathological knees was significantly increased compared to controls, at 7-, 12- and 24-weeks, and consistent with proteoglycan increase measured 5 weeks post-surgery, as a sign of cartilage matrix remodelling. Our work highlights the potential of 99mTc-NTP 15-5 as an imaging-based companion to monitor cartilage remodelling in OA and DMOAD response.

Simultaneous proteoglycans and hypoxia mapping of chondrosarcoma environment by frequency selective CEST MRI. Magn Reson Med 2021; 86:1008-1018. [PMID: 33772858 DOI: 10.1002/mrm.28781] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2020] [Revised: 03/01/2021] [Accepted: 03/04/2021] [Indexed: 11/10/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the relevance of CEST frequency selectivity in simultaneous in vivo imaging of both of chondrosarcoma's phenotypic features, that are, its high proteoglycan concentration and its hypoxic core. METHODS Swarm rat chondrosarcomas were implanted subcutaneously in NMRI nude mice. When tumors were measurable (12-16 days postoperative), mice were submitted to GAG, guanidyl, and APT CEST imaging. Proteoglycans and hypoxia were assessed in parallel by nuclear imaging exploiting 99m Tc-NTP 15-5 and 18 F-FMISO, respectively. Data were completed by ex vivo analysis of proteoglycans (histology and biochemical assay) and hypoxia (immunofluorescence). RESULTS Quantitative analysis of GAG CEST evidenced a significantly higher signal for tumor tissues than for muscles. These results were in agreement with nuclear imaging and ex vivo data. For imaging tumoral pH in vivo, the CEST ratio of APT/guanidyl was studied. This highlighted an important heterogeneity inside the tumor. The hypoxic status was confirmed by 18 F-FMISO PET imaging and ex vivo immunofluorescence. CONCLUSION CEST MRI simultaneously imaged both chondrosarcoma properties during a single experimental run and without the injection of any contrast agent. Both MR and nuclear imaging as well as ex vivo data were in agreement and showed that this chondrosarcoma animal model was rich in proteoglycans. However, even if tumors were lightly hypoxic at the stage studied, acidic areas were highlighted and mapped inside the tumor.

Proteoglycan-targeting applied to hypoxia-activated prodrug therapy in chondrosarcoma: first proof-of-concept. Oncotarget 2017; 8:95824-95840.

Abstract
Due to its abundant chondrogenic matrix and hypoxic tissue, chondrosarcoma is chemo- and radio-resistant. Our group has developed a proteoglycan targeting strategy by using a quaternary ammonium (QA) function as a carrier of DNA alkylating agents to chondrosarcoma environment. Here, we assessed the relevance of this strategy applied to hypoxia-activated prodrugs, by conjugating a QA to 2-nitroimidazole phosphoramidate. This derivative, named as 8-QA, was evaluated respectively to its non-QA equivalent and to a QA-conjugated but non-hypoxia activated. Firstly binding to aggrecan was confirmed from dissociation constant determined by Surface Plasmon Resonance. In vitro, in HEMC-SS chondrosarcoma cells cultured in monolayer and in spheroids, 8-QA showed higher cytotoxic activity in hypoxia versus normoxia, and led to a strong accumulation of cells in S phase and apoptosis. In vivo, a HEMC-SS xenograft model was implanted on SCID mice and characterized for hypoxia by photoacoustic imaging as well as proteoglycan content. When HEMC-SS bearing mice were given 8-QA at 47 μmol/kg according to a q4d x 6 schedule, a significant 62.1% inhibition of tumor growth was observed, without associated hematological side effects. Mechanistic studies of treated tumors highlighted decrease in mitotic index associated to increase in both p21 and p53S15 markers. Interestingly, 8-QA treatment induced an increase of DNA damages as measured by γH2AX predominantly found in pimonidazole-positive hypoxic areas. These preclinical results are the first to demonstrate the interest of addressing hypoxia-activated prodrugs selectively to proteoglycan of chondrogenic tumor tissue, as a promising therapeutic strategy.

Abstract
UNLABELLED This study determined, using the intraarticular complete Freund adjuvant arthritis mice model, whether the radiotracer (99m)Tc-N-(triethylammonium)-3-propyl-[15]ane-N5 ((99m)Tc-NTP 15-5) targeting proteoglycans has a pathophysiologic validity for in vivo imaging of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and its response to chronic nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs. METHODS We investigated the time course of cartilage remodeling by (99m)Tc-NTP 15-5 scintigraphy, bone damages by (99m)Tc-hydroxymethylene diphosphonate imaging, inflammation by (18)F-FDG PET, and joint proteoglycan content and pain behavior in animals, without and with meloxicam treatment. Paw circumference, thermal pain behavior, and histology as well as proteoglycan content of the whole joint were determined. RESULTS (99m)Tc-NTP 15-5 showed specific tracer accumulation within RA joints, with a significant increase in scintigraphic ratio observed in RA versus shams from day 3 to day 28. (18)F-FDG evidenced uptake in RA joints from day 15 to day 29. Animals treated with meloxicam (5 mg/kg) exhibited a dose-dependent decrease in both (99m)Tc-NTP 15-5 and (18)F-FDG uptake ratios versus saline-treated animals. (99m)Tc-hydroxymethylene diphosphonate bone scans were only positive at day 14 in RA versus shams, with a significant effect of meloxicam. An increase in proteoglycans of RA joint and thermal pain behavior were observed and were dose-dependently reduced by meloxicam. CONCLUSION These experimental results bring data in favor of the (99m)Tc-NTP 15-5 radiotracer for assessing, in vivo, cartilage remodeling in RA that could be used to monitor therapy.
