Beta-Amyloid and Tau Fibril Positron
Emissions Tomography (PET) Imaging
Agents
Description of Technology: The invention
relates to two novel classes of compounds
useful as radioligands for in vivo imaging of
beta-amyloid fibrils, peptides and plaques in
humans. Beta-amyloid peptide deposition in
the brain is a pathological feature of
Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Early detection of
beta-amyloid load in patients with suspected
AD is vital to initiating early treatment,
which can improve cognitive function and
quality of life for many patients. The
invention describes novel derivatives of
imidazopyridinylbenzeneamine (IMPY) and
benzothizolylbenzeneamine (BTA), which
demonstrate high in vitro binding affinity to
human beta-amyloid. The difference between
existing IMPY compounds and the novel
derivatives is the substitution of an aryl
halide with an aryl thioether group and
replacement of a sulfur group of the pyridine
ring with a nitrogen group. The new classes
of compounds have the potential of
providing improved amyloid imaging agents
for Positron Emission Tomography (PET)
with higher specificity for amyloid, low
background noise, better entry into the brain
and improved labeling efficiency.
Potential Commercial Applications:
• Alzheimer’s disease
• Alzheimer’s disease diagnostics
• Alzheimer’s disease early detection
Competitive Advantages: Specificity
Development Stage: In vitro data available
