    Synthesis and characterization of [18F]PFPMD. (A) Synthetic routes of [18F]PFPMD. (B) HPLC coelution profile of [18F]PFPMD and PFPMD. Coinjection of [18F]PFPMD and its corresponding nonradioactive PFPMD HPLC analysis confirmed radioligands. (C) In vitro stability of [18F]PFPMD in saline and in mouse serum at 6 h (n = 3). ACN = acetonitrile; RCP = radiochemical purity; UV = ultraviolet. Kryptofix is a product of Merck.

    In vitro binding study and preclinical imaging study with [18F]PFPMD. (A) Protein-binding results for [18F]PFPMD based on radio–thin-layer chromatography results. (B) Uptake of [18F]PFPMD in 2 NSCLC cell lines at indicated time points (n = 3). (C) Cell uptake and blocking study at 60 min (n = 3). (D) Internalization study in 2 NSCLC cell lines. (E) Representative [18F]PFPMD small-animal PET/CT images at 1 h in tumor-bearing mouse models and before treatment with AMG510 (n = 3). (F) Quantitative analysis of tumor and muscle uptake of [18F]PFPMD in H358/A549 tumor–bearing mice at 1 h after injection (5 for each group). *P < 0.01. ARS-1323 = a KRASG12C inhibitor; GMPPNP = guanosine 5′-[β,γ-imido]triphosphate; GTP = guanosine triphosphate; ns = not statistically significant; WT = wild type.

    • ARMS = amplification-refractory mutation system.

    • Non-G12C refers to other KRAS mutation types or no KRAS mutation, as AMRS PCR method detects G12C point only.
