Abstract

Automated synthesis of a radiopharmaceutical 3-((2-fluoro-4-(5-(2′-methyl-2-(trifluoromethyl)-[1,1′-biphenyl]-4-yl)-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)benzyl) (methyl-11C)amino)propanoic acid ([11C]CS1P1) for PET imaging sphingosine-1 phosphate receptor 1 (S1P1) was accomplished by a two-step-one-pot procedure in a Siemens CTI methylation automated module using TR-19 cyclotron. The synthesis of [11C]CS1P1 was successfully validated under current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) conditions, resulting in a consistent average radiochemical yield of ∼15%, molar activity of ∼3129 GBq/μmol (decay corrected to end of bombardment, EOB), and radiochemical purity > 95%. The radiopharmaceutical product meets all quality control criteria for human use for an Investigational New Drug (IND) application to permit human studies.
