Abstract

Background: The development of molecular imaging agents targeting epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) with L858R mutation may help with the selection of non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLCL) patients who may benefit from EFGR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy. Objective: In this study, we developed 99mTc STHHYYP-GHEG-ECGK-tetramethylrhodamine (STHHYYP-ECGK-TAMRA) to target EGFR with L858R mutation in NSCLC tumors and verified its probability as a molecular imaging agent. Methods: Fmoc solid-phase peptide synthesis was used to synthesize STHHYYP-ECGKTAMRA. 99mTc labelled STHHYYP-ECGK-TAMRA was prepared. Gamma imaging, fluorescent imaging and biodistribution were performed in murine models bearing NCI-H1975 and NCI-H1650 tumors. Results: The binding affinity value (Kd) of 99mTc STHHYYP-ECGK-TAMRA was estimated to be 130.6 ± 29.2 nM in NCI-H1975 cells. The gamma camera images showed a substantial uptake of 99mTc STHHYYP-ECGK-TAMRA in the NCI-H1975 tumor. The % injected dose/gram of the NCI-H1975 tumor tissue was 2.77 ± 0.70 and 3.48 ± 1.01 at 1 and 3 h, respectively. Conclusion: Specific binding of 99mTc STHHYYP-ECGK-TAMRA to L858R-mutated EGFRpositive NCI-H1975 cells and tumors was demonstrated in in vivo and in vitro studies. The results suggest that 99mTc STHHYYP-ECGK-TAMRA is a good candidate agent for dualmodality imaging targeting EGFR with L858R mutation.
