PURPOSE: We aimed to evaluate radiofluorination at the pyridinyl-6 position of the selective 5-HT1A receptor antagonist, WAY-100635 [N-(2-(1-(4-(2-methoxyphenyl)piperazinyl)ethyl))-N-(2-pyridinyl)cyclohexanecarboxamide)], on 5-HT1A receptor radioligand behavior in vivo. PROCEDURES: The pyridinyl-6 [F-18]fluoro derivative of WAY-100635 ([F-18]6FPWAY) was obtained by direct nucleophilic substitution with [F-18]fluoride ion in a bromo precursor. After intravenous injection of [F-18]6FPWAY into Cynomolgus monkey, the uptake of radioactivity into brain regions was assessed with positron emission tomography (PET) and blood samples analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for parent radioligand and radioactive metabolites. The experiment was repeated after pretreatment of the monkey with a dose of WAY-100635 that blocks brain 5-HT1A receptors. RESULTS: After intravenous injection of [F-18]6FPWAY into Cynomolgus monkey, the uptake of radioactivity into whole brain reached 4.33% of injected dose at 7.5 min. Uptake was highest in 5-HT1A receptor-rich regions. Pretreatment with WAY-100635 reduced uptake in these regions to near the levels in receptor-devoid cerebellum. [F-18]6FPWAY was rapidly metabolized in vivo, as evidenced by the rapid appearance of radioactive metabolites in plasma. CONCLUSION: [F-18]6FPWAY is selective and moderately useful for imaging brain 5-HT1A receptors in vivo. The pyridinyl-6 position is resistant to defluorination and may be an attractive site for the F-18-labeling of 6FPWAY analogs that resist hydrolysis. (C) 2004 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
