FAP (fibroblast activation protein)
NOTA-FAPI-4 targets fibroblast activation protein (FAP), a serine protease that is selectively overexpressed in cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) within the tumor microenvironment. It functions as a FAP inhibitor (blocker/antagonist). The NOTA chelator allows the compound to chelate radioactive metal ions such as ⁶⁸Ga, ⁶⁴Cu, or ¹⁸F (via ¹⁸F-AlF), enabling its use as a PET tracer for the non-invasive imaging of FAP-associated pathological conditions. |

| ln Vitro |
The radiolabelling yield of Al18F-NOTA-FAPI was 33.8 ± 3.2% using manual synthesis (n = 10), with a radiochemical purity over 99% and the specific activity of 9.3-55.5 MBq/nmol. [1]
In vitro, NOTA-FAPI-4 demonstrates a radiolabeling yield of 33.8±3.2% (n=10) with Al¹⁸F, achieving a radiochemical purity of >99% and a specific activity of 9.3-55.5 MBq/nmol. Its FAP-binding affinity supports its use as a PET tracer for detecting FAP-associated diseases. The compound's quinoline-based structure enables high-affinity binding to FAP. |
| ln Vivo |
In this study, a novel aluminium-[18F]fluoride (Al18F)-labelled 1,4,7‑triazacyclononane-N,N',N″-triacetic acid (NOTA)-conjugated fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (FAPI) probe, named Al18F-NOTA-FAPI, was developed for fibroblast activation protein (FAP)-targeted tumour imaging; it could deliver hundreds of millicuries of radioactivity using automated synthesis. The tumour detection efficacy of Al18F-NOTA-FAPI was further validated in both preclinical and clinical translational studies.
Results: The radiolabelling yield of Al18F-NOTA-FAPI was 33.8 ± 3.2% using manual synthesis (n = 10), with a radiochemical purity over 99% and the specific activity of 9.3-55.5 MBq/nmol. The whole body effective dose of Al18F-NOTA-FAPI was estimated to be 1.24E - 02 mSv/MBq, which was lower than several other FAPI probes (68Ga-FAPI-04, 68Ga-FAPI-46 and 68Ga-FAPI-74). In U87MG tumour-bearing mice, Al18F-NOTA-FAPI showed good tumour detection efficacy based on the results of micro PET/CT imaging and biodistribution studies. In an organ biodistribution study of patients, Al18F-NOTA-FAPI showed a lower SUVmean than 2-[18F]-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-[18F]FDG) in most organs, especially in the liver (1.1 ± 0.2 vs. 2.0 ± 0.9), brain (0.1 ± 0.0 vs. 5.9 ± 1.3), and bone marrow (0.9 ± 0.1 vs. 1.7 ± 0.4). Meanwhile, Al18F-NOTA-FAPI did not show extensive bone uptake, and was able to detect more lesions than 2-[18F]FDG in the PET/CT imaging of several patients. Conclusion: The Al18F-NOTA-FAPI probe was successfully fabricated and applied in fibroblast activation protein-targeted tumour PET/CT imaging, which showed excellent imaging quality and tumour detection efficacy in U87MG tumour-bearing mice as well as in cancer patients.[1] In vivo, Al¹⁸F-NOTA-FAPI has been evaluated in preclinical and clinical translational studies. In U87MG tumor-bearing mice, it demonstrated excellent tumor detection efficacy. The estimated effective dose for Al¹⁸F-NOTA-FAPI is 1.24E-02 mSv/MBq, which is lower than other FAPI probes. As a PET tracer, it enables the detection of diseases or disorders associated with FAP, including various types of cancers where FAP is upregulated. |
| Enzyme Assay |
The binding of NOTA-FAPI-4 to FAP is assessed using radioligand binding assays with recombinant FAP protein. Competitive binding experiments are performed to confirm target engagement. Radiolabeling efficiency and radiochemical purity are measured using radio-HPLC or TLC. Typical protocols involve incubating the radiolabeled compound with FAP-expressing cell membranes and measuring bound radioactivity.

| Cell Assay |
The radiolabelling procedure of Al18F-NOTA-FAPI was optimized. Cell uptake and competitive binding assays were completed with the U87MG and A549 cell lines to evaluate the affinity and specificity of the Al18F-NOTA-FAPI probe. [1]
The cellular activity of NOTA-FAPI-4 is evaluated in FAP-expressing cancer-associated fibroblasts or cancer cell lines. Cells are incubated with radiolabeled NOTA-FAPI-4, and cellular uptake is measured. Binding specificity is confirmed by competition with unlabeled FAPI-4. Cellular uptake studies are typically performed at 37°C for various time points to determine binding kinetics. |
| Animal Protocol |
The biodistribution, pharmacokinetics, radiation dosimetry and tumour imaging efficacy of the Al18F-NOTA-FAPI probe were researched in healthy Kunming (KM) and/or U87MG model mice. After the approval of the ethical committee, the Al18F-NOTA-FAPI probe was translated into the clinic for PET/CT imaging of the first 10 cancer patients.
