Abstract: Mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase 1/2 (mIDH1/2) are clinically significant biomarkers for diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy in cancer. To advance the noninvasive molecular imaging of mIDH1, we aim to develop a positron emission tomography (PET) radiotracer targeting IDH1R132H, the most common type of mIDH1/2. Starting from compound GSK321, a systematic structure-activity relationships (SAR) optimization was performed leading to the dimethylated derivative SK60 (19) with low nanomolar potency and high selectivity for IDH1R132H. Consequently, [18F]SK60 was developed via copper-mediated radiofluorination. Various in vitro studies with [18F]SK60 showed a high fraction of nonspecific binding. The in vivo evaluation revealed high metabolic stability with no detectable brain-permeable radiometabolite. In addition, limited brain uptake was observed by PET suggesting that further structural modifications to reduce lipophilicity might be needed for this structure. The present study led thus to a novel series of dimethylated GSK321 derivatives for further investigation in IDH1R132H-related therapies and PET imaging.
