Abstract | INTRODUCTION: METHODS: The cellular retention of 111In- and 131I-labeled MORAb-003 was investigated using IGROV1 and SW620 cells. Biodistribution studies in tumor-bearing mice were performed with the more favorable agent. RESULTS: Five 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-N,N',N",N'"-tetraacetic acid ( DOTA) molecules were conjugated to MORAb-003 with no apparent loss of immunoreactivity. Radiolabeled MORAb-003 had a high affinity for the folate receptor alpha (FRA) expressed by both IGROV1 and SW620 cells and was found to bind to around 8 x 10(5) and 7 x 10(5) sites/cell, respectively. Both cancer cell lines were found to internalize both 131I- and 111In-labeled MORAb-003, but 111In was retained and 131I was released as iodide. In athymic mice, 111In-DOTA-MORAb-003 was cleared from the blood with a single exponential biological clearance rate of 110 h. The uptake in SW620 tumors was 32+/-5%ID/g after 4 days. The clearance rate of activity from normal organs such as liver, kidney and spleen was similar to the blood clearance and was 5.36%ID/g, 4.03%ID/g and 4.36%ID/g at 1 day postinjection and 2.14%ID/g, 1.65%ID/g and 3.74%ID/g after 8 days, respectively. In a pilot clinical study, the biodistribution and tumor targeting of 111In-MORAb-003 was assessed in three patients undergoing treatment with cold MORAb-003. CONCLUSION:
