Automated radiosynthesis of [11C]UCB-J for imaging synaptic density by positron emission tomography
2020
An automated radiosynthesis of carbon-11 positron emission tomography radiotracer [(11) C]UCB-J for imaging the synaptic density biomarker synaptic vesicle glycoprotein SV2A was established using Synthra RNPlus synthesizer. Commercially available trifluoroborate UCB-J analogue was used as a radiolabelling precursor, and the desired radiolabelled product was isolated in 11 +/- 2% (n = 7) nondecay corrected radiochemical yield and formulated as a 10% EtOH solution in saline with molar activities of 20 to 100 GBq/mumol. The method was based upon the palladium(0)-mediated Suzuki cross-coupling reaction and [(11) C]CH3 I as a radiolabelling synthon. The isolated product was cGMP compliant as demonstrated by the results of quality control analysis.
