Tumor Imaging Using 1-(2'-deoxy-2'-18F- Fluoro- -D-Arabinofuranosyl)Thymine and PET

Abstract: The kinetics of 1-(29-deoxy-29-fluoro-b-D-arabinofuranosyl)thymine (FMAU) were studied using PET to determine the most appropriate and simplest approach to image acquisition and analysis. The concept of tumor retention ratio (TRR) is introduced and validated. Methods: Ten patients with brain (n 5 4) or prostate (n 5 6) tumors were imaged using 18 F-FMAU PET (mean dose, 369 MBq). Sixty-minute dynamic images were obtained; this was followed by whole-body images. Mean and maximum standardized uptake values (SUVme… Show more

“…The synthesis of precursor (23) started with commercially available cytidine (17) which was first converted into the 3'-and 5'-protected nucleoside 18 using TIPDSCl 2 and pyridine at room temperature as previously described. [8] Subsequent TMS-protection furnished 19 which was followed by double N 4 -Boc protection using excess of Boc 2 O (5-6 eq.) and DMAP which gave compound 20 in good yield.…”
