Definitions
- S-phase fraction is an objective method for measuring the proliferative status of tumors
- 30-40% of biopsy samples are unevaluable for flow cytometric analysis.
- tissue sampling by biopsy can be problematic since most tumors are heterogeneous, and consist of both proliferative and nonproliferative cells. Therefore, tissue samples obtained from a tumor biopsy may not be representative of the entire tumor cell population.
- Imaging procedures that avoid many of the problems associated with traditional procedures include single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and positron emission tomography (PET). Unlike flow cytometry of biopsy samples, which sample only a fraction of the tumor, SPECT and PET can image and provide information about an entire tumor.
- SPECT single photon emission computed tomography
- PET positron emission tomography
- Another alternate approach for imaging tumors is the use of radiolabeled small molecules that possess a high affinity for receptors that are abnormally expressed in tumor cells.
- a number of studies have reported an overexpression of sigma receptors in a variety of human and murine tumors.
- BJ. Nilner, et al. Cancer Research, 1995, 408-413 disclose that tumor cell lines of various tissue origins and species express sigma- 1 and sigma-2 receptors in high density.
- sigma- 1 sites were disclosed to be expressed in numerous cell lines, including T47D breast ductal carcinoma cells, MCF-7 breast adenocarcinoma cells showed little or no binding of [ 3 H](+)-pentazocine, indicating the absence of sigma- 1 receptors in these cells.

- the tablets, troches, pills, capsules, and the like may also contain the following: binders such as gum tragacanth, acacia, corn starch or gelatin; excipients such as dicalcium phosphate; a disintegrating agent such as corn starch, potato starch, alginic acid and the like; a lubricant such as magnesium stearate; and a sweetening agent such as sucrose, fructose, lactose or aspartame or a flavoring agent such as peppermint, oil of wintergreen, or cherry flavoring may be added.
- a liquid carrier such as a vegetable oil or a polyethylene glycol.
- any material used in preparing any unit dosage form should be pharmaceutically acceptable and substantially non-toxic in the amounts employed.
- the compound may be incorporated into sustained-release preparations and devices.
- the detectably labeled sigma-1 ligands may also be administered intravenously or intraperitoneally by infusion or injection.
- Solutions of a compound or its salts can be prepared in water, optionally mixed with a nontoxic surfactant.
- Dispersions can also be prepared in glycerol, liquid polyethylene glycols, triacetin, and mixtures thereof and in oils. Under ordinary conditions of storage and use, these preparations contain a preservative to prevent the growth of microorganisms.
- the pharmaceutical dosage forms suitable for injection or infusion can include sterile aqueous solutions or dispersions or sterile powders adapted for the extemporaneous preparation of sterile injectable or infusible solutions or dispersions.
- the ultimate dosage form should be sterile, fluid and stable under the conditions of manufacture and storage.
- the liquid carrier or vehicle can be a solvent or liquid dispersion medium comprising, for example, water, ethanol, a polyol (for example, glycerol, propylene glycol, liquid polyethylene glycols, and the like), vegetable oils, nontoxic glyceryl esters, and suitable mixtures thereof.
- the proper fluidity can be maintained, for example, by the formation of liposomes, by the maintenance of the required particle size in the case of dispersions or by the use of surfactants.
- the prevention of the action of microorganisms can be brought about by various antibacterial and antifungal agents, for example, parabens, chlorobutanol, phenol, sorbic acid, thimerosal, and the like. In many cases, it will be preferable to include isotonic agents, for example, sugars, buffers or sodium chloride. Prolonged absorption of the injectable compositions can be brought about by the use in the compositions of agents delaying absorption, for example, aluminum monostearate and gelatin.
- Sterile injectable solutions are prepared by incorporating a compound in the required amount in the appropriate solvent with various of the other ingredients enumerated above, as required, followed by filter sterilization.
- the preferred methods of preparation are vacuum drying and the freeze drying techniques, which yield a powder.
- the detectably labeled sigma-1 ligands may be applied in pure form, i.e., when they are liquids. However, it will generally be desirable to administer them to the skin as compositions or formulations, in combination with a dermatologically acceptable carrier, which may be a solid or a liquid.
- Useful dosages of the detectably labeled sigma-1 ligands can be determined by comparing their in vitro activity, and in vivo activity in animal models. Methods for the extrapolation of effective dosages in mice, and other animals, to humans are known to the art; for example, see U.S. Pat. No. 4,938,949.
- the concentration of the compound(s) in a liquid composition, such as a lotion will be from about 0.1-25 wt-%, preferably from about 0.5-10 wt-%.
- the concentration in a semi-solid or solid composition such as a gel or a powder will be about 0.1-5 wt-%, preferably about 0.5-2.5 wt-%.
- Single dosages for injection, infusion or ingestion will generally vary between 50-1500 mg, and may be administered, i.e., 1-3 times daily, to yield levels of about 0.5 - 50 mg/kg, for adults.
- Example 1 Stability of sigma-1 receptors on 67P cells.
- the mouse mammary adenocarcinoma line 66 is known to be an appropriate in vitro model system for studying biomarkers of cell proliferation.
- the expression of sigma-1 receptors on proliferative (P) and quiescent (Q) 66 cells was examined. Scatchard analyses of sigma-1 receptors were performed on 66P and 66Q cell membranes stored overnight at -80°C (Table 1). See Y.C. Cheng, et al, Biochem. Pharmacol, 1973, 22, 3099-4022. Table 1. Sigma-1 receptor binding studies in 3-day 66P cells and either 7- day, 10-day, or 12 day 66 Q cells
- sigma-1 receptors can be used as a biomarker for tumor cell proliferation, and may be used for noninvasively assessing the proliferative status of tumors (e.g., breast tumors, prostate tumors, and/or bladder tumors). Additionally, because sigma-1 receptors were found to have a higher P:Q ratio than sigma-2 receptors, the methods of the instant invention may possess an advantage over previous methods that use sigma-2 ligands to determine the proliferative status of cancer cells.
- Example 3 In vivo labeling of sigma-1 receptors in vivo with an 18 F-Iabeled mixed sigma-l/sigma-2 receptor imaging agent.
- IC sigma- 1 -selective ' 8 F-N-( 1 -benzylpiperidin-4-yl)-2-fluorophenylacetamide
- mice were sacrificed at 2 hours post-i.v. injection. The tumor and other organs of interest were removed, weighed and counted. Sigma-1 and sigma-2 biodistribution was calculated by measuring %I.D./c.c. tissue sample, as well as by tissue:blood ratio. Results are shown in Table 2.
- Results indicate that it is possible to label both sigma-1 and sigma-2 receptors in vivo.
- tissue uptake and a high tissue:blood ratio in all organs known to have a high density of sigma- receptors.
- the tumor uptake of compound 143 was also high, resulting in a tumo ⁇ blood ratio of 25 at 2 hours post-injection of the radiotracer.
- the relative density of sigma-1 and sigma-2 receptors was analyzed by comparing the uptake of the radiotracer alone and when co-injected with the blocking agents ( Figures 2).
- the sigma-1 blocking study reduced both the % I.D./c.c. and tumor:blood ratio of compound 143, suggesting that there is a high density of sigma-1 receptors in these mouse tumors.
- 66Q cells demonstrates that sigma-1 receptors are a biomarker of cell proliferation in breast cancer cells, prostate cancer cells, and/or bladder cancer cells. More specifically, these data, in concert with in vitro binding data from 66P and 66Q cells, demonstrates that sigma-1 receptors are a biomarker of cell proliferation in breast cancer cells.
