Kazuta N, Tsuchihashi S, Watanabe H, Ono M. Fundamental evaluation regarding the relationship between albumin-binding and tumor accumulation of PSMA-targeting radioligands. Ann Nucl Med 2024; 38:574-583.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The marked success of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-targeting radioligands with albumin binder (ALB) is attributed to the improvement of blood retention and tumor accumulation. [111In]In-PNT-DA1, our PSMA-targeting radioligand with ALB, also achieved improved tumor accumulation due to its prolonged blood retention. Although the advantage of ALBs is related to their reversible binding to albumin, the relationship between albumin-binding and tumor accumulation of PSMA-targeting radioligands remains unclear because of the lack of information about radioligands with stronger albumin-binding than ALBs. In this study, we designed and synthesized [111In]In-PNT-DM-HSA, a new radioligand that consists of a PSMA-targeting radioligand covalently bound to albumin. The pharmacokinetics of [111In]In-PNT-DM-HSA was compared with those of [111In]In-PNT-DA1 and [111In]In-PSMA-617, a non-ALB-conjugated radioligand, to evaluate the relationship between albumin-binding and tumor accumulation. METHOD The [111In]In-PNT-DM-HSA was prepared by incubation of [111In]In-PNT-DM, a PSMA-targeting radioligand including a maleimide group, and human serum albumin (HSA). The ability of [111In]In-PNT-DM-HSA was evaluated by in vitro assays. A biodistribution study using LNCaP tumor-bearing mice was conducted to compare the pharmacokinetics of [111In]In-PNT-DM-HSA, [111In]In-PNT-DA1, and [111In]In-PSMA-617. RESULTS The [111In]In-PNT-DM-HSA was obtained at a favorable radiochemical yield and high radiochemical purity. In vitro assays revealed that [111In]In-PNT-DM-HSA had fundamental characteristics as a PSMA-targeting radioligand interacting with albumin covalently. In a biodistribution study, [111In]In-PNT-DM-HSA and [111In]In-PNT-DA1 showed higher blood retention than [111In]In-PSMA-617. On the other hand, the tumor accumulation of [111In]In-PNT-DA1 was much higher than [111In]In-PNT-DM-HSA and [111In]In-PSMA-617. CONCLUSIONS These results indicate that the moderate reversible binding of ALB with albumin, not covalent binding, may play a critical role in enhancing the tumor accumulation of PSMA-targeting radioligands.

Abstract
A simple yet effective strategy to enhance the properties of traditional dye indocyanine green (ICG) in all aspects was proposed and demonstrated. Specifically, indocyanine green-derived carbon dots (ICGCDs) were synthesized from ICG via a simple hydrothermal treatment. The ICGCDs exhibited significantly enhanced thermal stability and anti-photobleaching compared to ICG. Furthermore, their photothermal properties were also notably strengthened, in which a wider functional pH range, 50% improvement in photothermal conversion efficiency and superior photothermal cyclability were achieved. Thanks to these superior properties, ICGCDs were demonstrated as efficient NIR bioimaging and photothermal agents in both in vitro and in vivo experiments. Most excitingly, the strategy demonstrated in this study is likely to have broad applications in other systems.

Abstract
Objectives Anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) cells cannot retain the radionuclide iodine 131 (131I) for treatment due to the inability to uptake iodine. This study investigated the feasibility of combining radionuclides with photothermal agents in the diagnosis and treatment of ATC. Methods 131I was labeled on human serum albumin (HSA) by the standard chloramine T method. 131I-HSA and indocyanine green (ICG) were non-covalently bound by a simple stirring to obtain 131I-HSA-ICG nanoparticles. Characterizations were performed in vitro. The cytotoxicity and imaging ability were investigated by cell/in vivo experiments. The radio-photothermal therapy efficacy of the nanoparticles was evaluated at the cellular and in vivo levels. Results The synthesized nanoparticles had a suitable size (25–45 nm) and objective biosafety. Under the irradiation of near-IR light, the photothermal conversion efficiency of the nanoparticles could reach 24.25%. In vivo fluorescence imaging and single-photon emission CT (SPECT)/CT imaging in small animals confirmed that I-HSA-ICG/131I-HSA-ICG nanoparticles could stay in tumor tissues for 4–6 days. Compared with other control groups, 131I-HSA-ICG nanoparticles had the most significant ablation effect on tumor cells under the irradiation of an 808-nm laser. Conclusions In summary, 131I-HSA-ICG nanoparticles could successfully perform dual-modality imaging and treatment of ATC, which provides a new direction for the future treatment of iodine-refractory thyroid cancer.

Abstract
Human serum albumin (HSA), which is distributed throughout the blood, is used as a carrier for transporting drugs to tumors based on the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect. To develop an agent for the in vivo radiolabeling of endogenous albumin, we designed and synthesized novel hydroxamamide (Ham)-based technetium-99m (99mTc) complexes, which contained a monovalent or bivalent 4-(4-iodophenyl)butyric acid (IA) derivative as an albumin binder (ALB) moiety ([99mTc]AB2 and [99mTc]ALB2, respectively), and evaluated their utility for in vivo tumor imaging. In an in vitro HSA-binding assay, [99mTc]AB2 and [99mTc]ALB2 showed greater binding to HSA than [99mTc]BHam, a 99mTc-Ham complex without an ALB moiety. In an in vivo biodistribution assay, [99mTc]ALB2 showed marked blood and tumor retention (25.13 and 4.61% injected dose (ID)/g, respectively, at 1 h postinjection), suggesting that the EPR effect had been induced. However, [99mTc]AB2 showed no marked blood or tumor retention (4.16 and 0.75% ID/g, respectively, at 1 h postinjection), probably because the affinity of the monovalent IA derivative for albumin was insufficient to induce the EPR effect. These findings indicated that the multivalent interactions of [99mTc]ALB2 had enhanced its affinity for albumin. 99mTc-complexes containing multivalent ALB moieties may be useful for tumor imaging.

Abstract
Few xanthene-based near-infrared (NIR) photoacoustic (PA) dyes with absorbance >800 nm exist. As accessibility to these dyes requires long and tedious synthetic steps, we designed a NIR dye (XanthCR-880) with thienylpiperidine donors and a xanthene acceptor that is accessible in 3-4 synthetic steps. The dye boasts a strong PA signal at 880 nm with good biological compatibility and photostability, yields multiplexed imaging with an aza-BODIPY reference dye, and is detected at a depth of 4 cm.

Abstract
Surgery remains one of the main treatments of cancer and both precise pre- and intraoperative diagnoses are crucial in order to guide the operation. We consider that using an identical probe for both pre- and intra-operative diagnoses would bridge the gap between surgical planning and image-guided resection. Therefore, in this study, we developed gold nanorods (AuNRs) conjugated with radiolabeled anti-human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) monoclonal antibody, and investigated their feasibility as novel HER2-targeted dual-imaging probes for both single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) (preoperative diagnosis) and photoacoustic (PA) imaging (intraoperative diagnosis). To achieve the purpose, AuNRs conjugated with different amount of trastuzumab (Tra) were prepared, and Tra-AuNRs were labeled with indium-111. After the evaluation of binding affinity to HER2, cell binding assay and biodistribution studies were carried out for optimization. AuNRs with moderate trastuzumab conjugation (Tra2-AuNRs) were proposed as the novel probe and demonstrated significantly higher accumulation in NCI-N87 (HER2 high-expression) tumors than in SUIT2 (low-expression) tumors 96 h post-injection along with good affinity towards HER2. Thereafter, in vitro PA imaging and in vivo SPECT imaging studies were performed. In in vitro PA imaging, Tra2-AuNRs-treated N87 cells exhibited significant PA signal increase than SUIT2 cells. In in vivo SPECT, signal increase in N87 tumors was more notable than that in SUIT2 tumors. Herein, we report that the Tra2-AuNRs enabled HER2-specific imaging, suggesting the potential as a robust HER2-targeted SPECT and PA dual-imaging probe.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to investigate the feasibility of lung wedge resection by combining 3-dimensional (3D) image analysis with transbronchial indocyanine green (ICG) instillation, in order to delineate the intended area for resection. METHODS From December 2017 to July 2020, 28 patients undergoing wedge resection (17 primary lung cancers, 11 metastatic lung tumours) were enrolled, and fluorescence-guided wedge resection was attempted. Virtual sublobar resections were created preoperatively for each patient using a 3D Image Analyzer. Surgical margins were measured in each sublobar resection simulation in order to select the most optimal surgical resection area. After transbronchial instillation of ICG, near-infrared thoracoscopic visualization allowed matching of the intended area for resection to the virtual sublobar resection area. To investigate the effectiveness of ICG instillation, the clarity of the ICG-florescent border was evaluated, and the distance from the true tumour to the surgical margins was compared to that of simulation. RESULTS Mean tumour diameter was 12.4 ± 4.3 mm. The entire targeted tumour was included in resected specimens of all patients (100% success rate). The shortest distances to the surgical margin via 3D simulation and by actual measurement of the specimen were11.4 ± 5.4 and 12.2 ± 4.1 mm, respectively (P = 0.285) and were well correlated (R2 = 0.437). While all specimens had negative malignant cells at the surgical margins, one loco-regional recurrence was observed secondary to the dissemination of neuroendocrine carcinoma. CONCLUSIONS ICG-guided lung wedge resection after transbronchial ICG instillation and preoperative 3D image analysis allow for adequate negative surgical margins, providing decreased risk of local recurrence.

Abstract
Objective Achieving negative resection margin is critical but challenging in breast-conserving surgery. Fluorescence-guided surgery allows the surgeon to visualize the tumor bed in real-time and to facilitate complete resection. We envisioned that intraoperative real-time fluorescence imaging with a human serum albumin decorated indocyanine green probe could enable complete surgical removal of breast cancer in a mouse model. Methods We prepared the probe by conjugating indocyanine green (ICG) with human serum albumin (HSA). In vitro uptake of the HSA-ICG probe was compared between human breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 and normal breast epithelial cell line MCF 10A. In vivo probe selectivity for tumors was examined in nude mice bearing MDA-MB-231-luc xenografts and the FVB/N-Tg (MMTV-PyMT) 634Mul/J mice model with spontaneous breast cancer. A positive-margin resection mice model bearing MDA-MB-231-luc xenograft was established and the performance of the probe in assisting surgical resection of residual lesions was examined. Results A significantly stronger fluorescence intensity was detected in MDA-MB-231 cells than MCF 10A cells incubated with HSA-ICG. In vivo fluorescence imaging showed that HSA-ICG had an obvious accumulation at tumor site at 24 h with tumor-to-normal tissue ratio of 8.19 ± 1.30. The same was true in the transgenic mice model. The fluorescence intensity of cancer tissues was higher than that of non-cancer tissues (58.53 ± 18.15 vs 32.88 ± 11.34). During the surgical scenarios, the residual tumors on the surgical bed were invisible with the naked eye, but were detected and resected with negative margin under HSA-ICG guidance in all the mice (8/8). Recurrence rate among mice that underwent resection with HSA-ICG (0/8) was significantly lower than the rates among mice with ICG (4/8), as well as the control group under white light (7/7). Conclusions This study suggests that real-time in vivo visualization of breast cancer with an HSA-ICG fluorescent probe facilitates complete surgical resection of breast cancer in a mouse xenograft model.

Abstract
We aim to determine whether lymphatic drainage from the eye changes with age. Using quantitative photoacoustic tomography, groups of young and older mice were studied in the live state. 10 CD-1 mice of 2-3 months (5M/5F) were studied in addition to 13 older mice of 12-13 months (6M/7F). In each of 23 mice, near-infrared tracer (a near-infrared dye, QC-1 conjugated with Bovine Serum Albumin) was injected into the right eye, and imaging of ipsilateral cervical lymph nodes was performed with laser pulses at 11 different wavelengths prior to and 20 min, 2, 4 and 6 h after injection. Mean pixel intensities (MPIs) of nodes were calculated at each imaging session. The areas under the curves (AUC) were calculated for both groups of mice and compared using the t-test. The slopes of MPI of each region of interest were compared using the linear mixed model before and after adjusting for sex, body weight and intraocular pressure of the right eye. The mean intraocular pressure of right eyes before injection was similar in older and younger groups (12.77 ± 2.01 mmHg and 12.90 ± 2.38 mmHg, respectively; p = 0.888). In each mouse, the photoacoustic signal was detected in the right cervical lymph nodes at the 2-h time point following tracer injection into the right eye. At the 4 and 6 h imaging times, a steady increase of tracer signal was observed. Areas under the curve in the right cervical nodes were decreased significantly in older mice compared to younger mice (p = 0.007). The slopes of MPI in the nodes were significantly decreased in old mice compared to young mice both before and after adjusting for sex, body weight and intraocular pressure of the right eye (p = 0.003). In conclusion, lymphatic drainage from the eye is significantly reduced in older eyes. This finding suggests that impaired lymphatic clearance of aqueous humor, proteins and antigens from the eye may contribute to age-related disease of the eye such as glaucoma and inflammatory eye disease.

Abstract
With the emergence of nanotechnology, new methods have been developed for engineering various nanoparticles for biomedical applications. Nanotheranostics is a burgeoning research field with tremendous prospects for the improvement of diagnosis and treatment of various cancers. However, the development of biocompatible and efficient drug/gene delivery theranostic systems still remains a challenge. Green synthetic approach of nanoparticles with low capital and operating expenses, reduced environmental pollution and better biocompatibility and stability is a latest and novel field, which is advantageous over chemical or physical nanoparticle synthesis methods. In this article, we summarize the recent research progresses related to green synthesized nanoparticles for cancer theranostic applications, and we also conclude with a look at the current challenges and insight into the future directions based on recent developments in these areas.

Abstract
Photoacoustic imaging (PAI) is a rapidly growing field which offers high spatial resolution and high contrast for deep-tissue imaging in vivo. PAI is nonionizing and noninvasive and combines the optical resolution of fluorescence imaging with the spatial resolution of ultrasound imaging. In particular, the development of exogenous PA contrast agents has gained significant momentum of late with a vastly expanding complexity of dye materials under investigation ranging from small molecules to macromolecular proteins, polymeric and inorganic nanoparticles. The goal of this review is to survey the current state of the art in molecular photoacoustic contrast agents (MPACs) for applications in biomedical imaging. The fundamental design principles of MPACs are presented and a review of prior reports spanning from early-to-current literature is put forth.

Abstract
Molecular imaging probes that enable seamless diagnoses of tumors in the preoperative and intraoperative stages could lead to surgical resection of tumors based on highly accurate diagnoses. Because iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) have high proton relaxivity and high molar extinction coefficients suitable for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and photoacoustic imaging, respectively, we planned to develop molecular imaging probes applicable to the pre- (MRI) and intraoperative (photoacoustic imaging) stages. Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (EGFR2; HER2) was selected as a target molecule, and we designed IONPs (20, 50, and 100 nm) conjugated with anti-HER2 moieties [whole IgG (trastuzumab), single-chain fragment variable (scFv), and peptide] for HER2-targeted tumor imaging. Among the probes tested, scFv-conjugated IONPs (scFv-IONPs) (20 nm) exhibited the highest binding affinity to HER2 (Kd=0.01 nM). An in vivo biodistribution study using 111In-labeled probes demonstrated that more scFv-IONPs (20 nm) accumulated in HER2-positive than in HER2-negative tumors, suggesting that the uptake of scFv-IONPs is HER2 specific. The scFv-IONPs (20 nm) showed high proton relaxivity and a probe concentration-dependent photoacoustic signal. In vivo MR/photoacoustic imaging studies using scFv-IONPs (20 nm) facilitated HER2-specific visualization of tumors. Furthermore, an iron-staining study demonstrated that the uptake of scFv-IONPs was notable only in HER2-positive tumors. These results suggest that scFv-IONPs (20 nm) may be useful for MR/photoacoustic dual imaging, which could achieve seamless diagnoses in the preoperative and intraoperative stages.

Abstract
In this study, we have developed a biodegradable nanomaterial for photoacoustic imaging (PAI). Its biodegradation products can be fully eliminated from a living organism. It is a gas-generating nanoparticle of liposome-encapsulating ammonium bicarbonate (NH4HCO3) solution, which is safe, effective, inexpensive, and free of side effects. When lasers irradiate these nanoparticles, NH4HCO3 decomposes to produce CO2, which can absorb much of the light energy under laser irradiation with a specific wavelength, and then expand under heat to generate a thermal acoustic wave. An acoustic detector can detect this wave and show it as a photoacoustic signal on a display screen. The intensity of the photoacoustic signal is enhanced corresponding to an increase in time, concentration, and temperature. During in vivo testing, nanoparticles were injected into tumor-bearing nude mice through the caudal vein, and photoacoustic signals were detected from the tumor, reaching a peak in 4 h, and then gradually disappearing. There was no damage to the skin or subcutaneous tissue from laser radiation. Our developed gas-generating nanomaterial, NH4HCO3 nanomaterial, is feasible, effective, safe, and inexpensive. Therefore, it is a promising material to be used in clinical PAI.

Abstract
Photoacoustic imaging (PA imaging or PAI) has been focused on as a new technique to provide images of high spatial resolution, at depths of up to 5 cm, and the development of novel PAI probes for tumor imaging is of marked interest. Although nanomaterials such as gold nanorods have been reported as PAI probes, dyes are required to aid their ease of preparation, cost-effectiveness, and safety. However, because PAI has relatively low intrinsic sensitivity compared to optical imaging, and requires high-energy laser pulse exposure, an appropriate probe design, high tumor accumulation, and photostability are required for PAI probes. We developed some dyes and evaluated their usefulness as PAI probes. We first developed a high tumor-accumulation dye probe, IC7-1-Bu, which utilizes serum albumin as a tumor-targeting carrier to deliver an adequate PA signal at the tumor. Although IC7-1-Bu showed strong tumor targeting ability and a sufficient PA signal at the tumor in in vivo studies, IC7-1-Bu lacks photostability against multiple laser irradiations of PAI. In order to improve dye photostablity, we focused on the effect of singlet oxygen ((1)O2) generated by excited PAI probes on probe degeneration, and developed a triplet-state quencher conjugated dye probe, IC-5-T. IC-5-T reduced (1)O2 generation and improved photostability against multiple irradiations compared to IC7-1-Bu. IC-5-T also showed a sufficient PA signal at the tumor, and 1.5-fold higher photostabillity compared to IC7-1-Bu in sequential in vivo PAI studies. These results suggest that IC-5-T is a potential PAI probe for tumor imaging.

Abstract
Photoacoustic imaging, which enables high-resolution imaging in deep tissues, has lately attracted considerable attention. For tumor imaging, photoacoustic probes have been proposed to enhance the photoacoustic effect to improve detection sensitivity. Here, we evaluated the feasibility of using a biocompatible hydrophilic polymer, polyoxazoline, conjugated with indocyanine green (ICG) as a tumor-targeted photoacoustic probe via enhanced permeability and retention effect. ICG molecules were multivalently conjugated to partially hydrolyzed polyoxazoline, thereby serving as highly sensitive photoacoustic probes. Interestingly, loading multiple ICG molecules to polyoxazoline significantly enhanced photoacoustic signal intensity under the same ICG concentration. In vivo biodistribution studies using tumor bearing mice demonstrated that 5% hydrolyzed polyoxazoline (50 kDa) conjugated with ICG (ICG/polyoxazoline = 7.8), P14-ICG7.8, showed relatively high tumor accumulation (9.4%ID/g), resulting in delivery of the highest dose of ICG among the probes tested. P14-ICG7.8 enabled clear visualization of the tumor regions by photoacoustic imaging 24 h after administration; the photoacoustic signal increased in proportion with the injected dose. In addition, the signal intensity in blood vessels in the photoacoustic images did not show much change, which was attributed to the high tumor-to-blood ratios of P14-ICG7.8. These results suggest that polyoxazoline-ICG would serve as a robust probe for sensitive photoacoustic tumor imaging.

Abstract
Despite the effort of developing various nanodelivery systems, most of them suffer from undesired high uptakes by the reticuloendothelial system, such as liver and spleen. Herein we develop an endogenous phosphatase-triggered coassembly strategy to form tumor-specific indocyanine green (ICG)-doped nanofibers (5) for cancer theranostics. Based on coordinated intermolecular interactions, 5 significantly altered near-infrared absorbance of ICG, which improves the critical photoacoustic and photothermal properties. The phosphatase-instructed coassembly process, as well as its theranostic capability, was successfully conducted at different levels ranging from in vitro, living cell, tissue mimic, to in vivo. Specifically, the tumor uptake of ICG was markedly increased to 15.05 ± 3.78%ID/g, which was 25-fold higher than that of free ICG (0.59 ± 0.24%ID/g) at 4 h after intravenous injection. The resulting ultrahigh T/N ratios (>15) clearly differentiated tumors from the surrounding normal tissue. Complete tumor elimination with high therapeutic accuracy has been successfully achieved upon laser irradiation (0.8 W/cm(2), 5 min) within 24-48 h postinjection. As the first example, in vivo formation of tumor-specific ICG-doped nanofiber for PTT theranostics owns the immense potential for clinical translation of personalized nanomedicine with targeted drug delivery as well as for cancer theranostics.

Abstract
Photoacoustic imaging (PAI) contributes to tumor diagnosis through the use of PAI probes that effectively accumulate in tumors. Previously, we developed a symmetrical cyanine dye, IC7-1-Bu, which showed high potential as a PAI probe because of its high tumor targeting ability and sufficient in vivo PA signal. However, IC7-1-Bu lacks photostability for multiple laser irradiations, so we developed stabilized PAI probes using IC7-1-Bu as a lead compound. We focused on the effect of singlet oxygen (1O2) generated by excited PAI probes on probe degeneration. We introduced a triplet-state quencher (TSQ) moiety into IC7-1-Bu to quench 1O2 generation and designed three IC-n-T derivatives with different linker lengths (n indicates linker length). The IC-n-T derivatives emitted in vitro PA signals that were comparable to IC7-1-Bu and significantly reduced 1O2 generation while showing improved photostability against multiple irradiations. Of the three derivatives evaluated, IC-5-T accumulated in tumors effectively to allow clear PAI of tumors in vivo. Furthermore, the photostability of IC-5-T was 1.5-fold higher than that of IC7-1-Bu in in vivo sequential PAI. These results suggest that IC-5-T is a potential PAI probe for in vivo sequential tumor imaging.

Development of anti-HER2 fragment antibody conjugated to iron oxide nanoparticles for in vivo HER2-targeted photoacoustic tumor imaging. NANOMEDICINE-NANOTECHNOLOGY BIOLOGY AND MEDICINE 2015; 11:2051-60. [PMID: 26238078 DOI: 10.1016/j.nano.2015.07.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 30] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/10/2014] [Revised: 04/30/2015] [Accepted: 07/11/2015] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
UNLABELLED Photoacoustic (PA) imaging is a promising imaging modality that provides biomedical information with high sensitivity and resolution. Iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) have been regarded as remarkable PA contrast agents because of their low toxicity and biodegradable properties. However, IONP delivery is restricted by its modest leakage and retention in tumors. In this study, we designed IONPs (20nm, 50nm, and 100nm) conjugated with anti-HER2 moieties [whole IgG, single-chain fragment variable (scFv), and peptide] for HER2-targeted PA tumor imaging. The binding affinity, cellular uptake, and in vivo biodistribution were examined. We propose 20-nm anti-HER2 scFv-conjugated IONPs (SNP20) as a novel PA contrast agent. SNP20 demonstrated high affinity and specific binding to HER2-expressing cells; it selectively visualized HER2-positive tumors in PA imaging studies. These data indicate that SNP20 is a potential PA contrast agent for imaging of HER2-expressing tumors. FROM THE CLINICAL EDITOR Iron oxide nanoparticles have been demonstrated to be good contrast agents for tumor imaging. They may also be useful in photoacoustic (PA) imaging, which can provide high sensitivity data and image resolution. The authors here coupled iron oxide nanoparticles with anti-HER2 antibody fragment and showed significant retention of these nanoparticles in tumors. This combination may provide another option for enhanced imaging of tumors.

Abstract
Photoacoustic (PA) imaging is an attractive imaging modality for sensitive and depth imaging of biomolecules with high resolution in vivo. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of an anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) monoclonal antibody (panitumumab; Pan) labeled with indocyanine green derivative (ICG-EG4-Sulfo-OSu), Pan-EG4-ICG, as a PA imaging probe to target cancer-associated EGFR. In vitro PA imaging studies demonstrated that Pan-EG4-ICG yielded high EGFR-specific PA signals in EGFR-positive cells. To determine the optimal injection dose and scan timing, we investigated the biodistribution of radiolabeled Pan-EG4-ICG (200-400 μg) in A431 tumor (EGFR++)-bearing mice. The highest tumor accumulation (29.4% injected dose/g) and high tumor-to-blood ratio (2.1) was observed 7 days after injection of Pan-EG4-ICG (400 μg). In in vivo PA imaging studies using Pan-EG4-ICG (400 μg), the increase in PA signal (114%) was observed in A431 tumors inoculated in the mammary glands 7 days post-injection. Co-injection of excess Pan resulted in a 35% inhibition of this PA signal, indicating the EGFR-specific accumulation. In conclusion, the ICG-labeled monoclonal antibody (i.e., panitumumab) has the potential to enhance target-specific PA signal, leading to the discrimination of aggressiveness and metastatic potential of tumors and the selection of effective therapeutic strategies.
