In vivo imaging of HER2 expression may allow direct assessment of HER2 status in tumor tissue and provide means to quantify changes in receptor expression following HER2-targeted therapies. This work describes in vivo characterization of HER2-specific 18F-FBEM-ZHER2:342–Affibody molecule and its application to study the effect of 17-DMAG on HER2 expression by PET imaging. To assess the correlation of signal observed by PET with receptor expression, the tracer was administered to athymic nude mice bearing subcutaneous human breast cancer xenografts with different levels of HER2 expression. To study the down-regulation of HER2, mice were treated with four doses (40 mg/kg) of 17-DMAG, an inhibitor of Hsp90, known to decrease the HER2 expression. Animals were scanned before and after the treatment. After the last scan, mice were euthanized and tumors were frozen for receptor analysis. The tracer was eliminated quickly from the blood and normal tissues, providing high tumor/blood and tumor/muscle ratios as early as 20 min post injection. The high contrast images between normal and tumor tissue were recorded for BT474 and MCF7/clone18 tumors. Very low but still detectable uptake was observed for MCF7 tumors and none for MDA-MB-468. The signal correlated with the receptor expression assessed by immunohistochemistry as well as western blot and ELISA. The levels of HER2 expression, estimated by post-treatment PET imaging, decreased 71% (p < 4 × 10−6) and 33% (p < 0.002), respectively, for BT474- and MCF7/clone18-tumor bearing mice. These changes were confirmed by the biodistribution studies, ELISA and western blot. Our results suggest that the described 18F-FBEM-ZHER2:342–Affibody molecule can be used to assess HER2 expression in vivo by PET imaging and monitor possible changes of receptor expression in response to therapeutic interventions.
