Abstract:
The invention provides a compound having a selective inhibitory activity against highly-expressed LAT-1 in tumor cell. The compound is represented by the formula (I): wherein each symbol is as defined in the specification, or a salt thereof, and a LAT-1 inhibitor comprising the same.
Abstract:
A compound having a structure represented by the general formula (I): (wherein n is 0 or 1; R1 represents a hydrogen atom (only if n=0), a halogen atom, a C1-C6 alkyl group, a C1-C6 haloalkyl group, an optionally substituted amino group, an optionally substituted phenyl group, a C1-C6 alkylthio group, a C1-C6 alkoxy group, a C1-C6 haloalkoxy group or a C7-C12 aralkyloxy group; R2 represents —(CH2)p—[O(CH2)q]r—X (wherein X is a halogen atom, p is an integer of 1 to 6, q is an integer of 1 to 4, and r is an integer of 0 to 4); R3 represents a hydrogen atom, a C1-C6 alkyl group, a C7-C16 aralkyl group or a C6-C14 aryl group; and R4 represents a hydrogen atom or a C1-C6 alkyl group), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof excels FAMT in terms of the tendency to accumulate intensively in cancer, the affinity for LAT1 and the selectivity for cancer, and can be labeled using an automated synthesizer in clinical settings, and therefore is useful as a highly versatile PET imaging agent.
Abstract:
To develop a compound which is highly accumulated in cancer cells and capable of emitting an α-ray and provide a pharmaceutical composition for cancer treatment including the compound. A pharmaceutical composition for cancer treatment including a compound having a structure in which 211At is introduced as a substituent into an amino acid derivative having an affinity with an amino acid transporter LAT1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the compound.
