10-Dehydroxyl-12-demethoxy-conophylline is a natural anticancer candidate. The motivation of this study was to explore the pharmacokinetic profiles, tissue distribution, and plasma protein binding of 10-dehydroxyl-12-demethoxy-conophylline in Sprague Dawley rats. A rapid, sensitive, and specific ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) system with a fluorescence (FLR) detection method was developed for the determination of 10-dehydroxyl-12-demethoxy-conophylline in different rat biological samples. After intravenous (i.v.) dosing of 10-dehydroxyl-12-demethoxy-conophylline at different levels (4, 8, and 12 mg/kg), the half-life t1/2α of intravenous administration was about 7 min and the t1/2β was about 68 min. The AUC0→∞ increased in a dose-proportional manner from 68.478 μg/L·min for 4 mg/kg to 305.616 mg/L·min for 12 mg/kg. After intragastrical (i.g.) dosing of 20 mg/kg, plasma levels of 10-dehydroxyl-12-demethoxy-conophylline peaked at about 90 min. 10-dehydroxyl-12-demethoxy-conophyllinea absolute oral bioavailability was only 15.79%. The pharmacokinetics process of the drug was fit to a two-room model. Following a single i.v. dose (8 mg/kg), 10-dehydroxyl-12-demethoxy-conophylline was detected in all examined tissues with the highest in kidney, liver, and lung. Equilibrium dialysis was used to evaluate plasma protein binding of 10-dehydroxyl-12-demethoxy-conophylline at three concentrations (1.00, 2.50, and 5.00 µg/mL). Results indicated a very high protein binding degree (over 80%), reducing substantially the free fraction of the compound.

Tissue Distribution Profile

The concept of using ibuprofen as an albumin-binding entity was recently demonstrated by the development of [177Lu]Lu-Ibu-PSMA-01. In the present study, we designed a novel ibuprofen-containing radioligand (Ibu-PSMA-02) with subtle structural changes regarding the linker entity in order to investigate a potential impact on the in vitro and in vivo properties. Ibu-PSMA-02 was prepared using solid-phase synthesis techniques and labeled with lutetium-177. [177Lu]Lu-Ibu-PSMA-02 was evaluated in vitro with regard to its plasma protein-binding properties, PSMA affinity and uptake into PSMA-expressing PC-3 PIP tumor cells. The tissue distribution profile of [177Lu]Lu-Ibu-PSMA-02 was assessed in tumor-bearing mice and dose estimations were performed. The in vitro characteristics of [177Lu]Lu-Ibu-PSMA-02 were similar to those previously obtained for [177Lu]Lu-Ibu-PSMA-01 with respect to plasma protein-binding, PSMA affinity and tumor cell uptake. The in vivo studies revealed, however, an unprecedentedly high uptake of [177Lu]Lu-Ibu-PSMA-02 in PC-3 PIP tumors, resulting in an increased absorbed tumor dose of 7.7 Gy/MBq as compared to 5.1 Gy/MBq calculated for [177Lu]Lu-Ibu-PSMA-01. As a consequence of the high tumor accumulation, [177Lu]Lu-Ibu-PSMA-02 showed higher tumor-to-background ratios than [177Lu]Lu-Ibu-PSMA-01. This study exemplified that smallest structural changes in the linker entity of PSMA radioligands may have a significant impact on their pharmacokinetic profiles and, thus, may be applied as a means for ligand design optimization.
