  • Patent number: 12234242
    Abstract: The present invention relates to compounds that are useful as radiopharmaceuticals and radioimaging agents which bear a radionuclide-chelating agent. These coordinated compounds are useful in radiotherapy and diagnostic imaging. The invention also relates to methods of diagnosis, prognosis and therapy utilising the non-coordinated and radiolabelled compounds of the invention.

  • Publication number: 20250009917
    Abstract: The present invention relates to compounds of formula (I) that have the ability to be used as metal complexes in radiotherapy. wherein A is selected from the group consisting of CO2R1, and PO3R1; B is selected from the group consisting of CO2R2, and PO3R2; R1, R2 and R3 are each independently selected from the group consisting of H and C1-C12alkyl; each Ra is independently selected from the group consisting of H, F, Cl, Br, I, CH3, CH2CH3, CH(CH3)2, OH, OCH3, OCH2CH3, CF3, OCF3, NO2, NH2, and CN; each Rb is independently selected from the group consisting of H, F, Cl, Br, I, CH3, CH2CH3, CH(CH3)2, OH, OCH3, OCH2CH3, CF3, OCF3, NO2, NH2, and CN; L is a linker having from 1 to 20 atoms in the normal chain; or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

  • Publication number: 20240277877
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to sarcophagine based compounds of formula (I). The compounds can complex a radioisotope, such as 64-copper and hence are useful in radioimaging and radiotherapy of cancers, e.g. colorectal cancer. The compounds work via a pre-targeting imaging approach in which the tetrazine reacts via click chemistry with a functional group such as a transcyclooctene which is pre-bound to a ligand such as a tumour specific antibody.

  • Patent number: 11905301
    Abstract: The present invention relates to compounds that are useful as metal ligands and which either contain a molecular recognition moiety or can be bound to a molecular recognition moiety and methods of making these compounds. Once the compounds that contain a molecular recognition moiety are coordinated with a suitable metallic radionuclide, the coordinated compounds are useful as radiopharmaceuticals in the areas of radiotherapy and diagnostic imaging. The invention therefore also relates to methods of diagnosis and therapy utilising the radiolabelled compounds of the invention.
