Introduction: The 2,2-dihydroxymethyl-1-[18F]fluoropropane group, also called 18F-labelled neopentyl glycol side-chain, is a novel 18F-labelling group for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging agents. The aim of using this group is to develop simple purification with solid-phase extraction without high-performance liquid chromatography. However, the effects of the neopentyl 18F-labelling group on the characteristics of brain imaging agents are unknown. Here, we added this side-chain to compounds with an aminostilbene structure to evaluate their effects on the biological properties of aminostilbene as an amyloid-β (Aβ) radioligand. Methods: Biodistributions of four novel 18F-labelled stilbene compounds with different lengths of polyethylene glycol (PEG) linkers, called [18F]Cpd-0, -1, -2, and -4, (PEG = 0, 1, 2, and 4), and [18F]AV-1 in normal mice were evaluated. Metabolite analysis of [18F]Cpd-0 and -1 was performed with mouse plasma and brain. A competitive binding assay of [18F]AV-1 binding to Aβ1–42 fibrils was performed to determine the binding properties of the compounds. Results: [18F]Cpd-0, -1, and -2 demonstrated moderate initial brain uptake in mice (3.1–4.2% injected dose/g at 2 min post-injection) followed by fast clearance, and in vivo defluorination of these compounds was negligible. [18F]Cpd-4 exhibited low brain uptake and high bone uptake. Compared with [18F]Cpd-1, the percentage of [18F]Cpd-0 in mouse brain was high at 10 min post-injection. A competitive binding assay revealed partial interference effects by the neopentyl glycol side-chain on binding of stilbene compounds to Aβ1–42 fibrils. Conclusions: Aminostilbene compounds with two or fewer PEG linkers containing an 18F-labelled neopentyl glycol side-chain demonstrated preferable pharmacokinetic properties as a brain imaging radioligand in normal mice. These side-chains can be used as an alternative labelling group for imaging agents targeting the brain.

Paragraph 1250, (2018/07/15)
The present disclosure relates to bifunctional compounds, which find utility as modulators of Rapidly Accelerated Fibrosarcoma (RAF, such as c-RAF, A-RAF and/or B-RAF; the target protein). In particular, the present disclosure is directed to bifunctional compounds, which contain on one end a Von Hippel-Lindau, cereblon, Inhibitors of Apotosis Proteins or mouse double-minute homolog 2 ligand which binds to the respective E3 ubiquitin ligase and on the other end a moiety which binds the target protein RAF, such that the target protein is placed in proximity to the ubiquitin ligase to effect degradation (and inhibition) of target protein. The present disclosure exhibits a broad range of pharmacological activities associated with degradation/inhibition of target protein. Diseases or disorders that result from aggregation or accumulation of the target protein, or the constitutive activation of the target protein, are treated or prevented with compounds and compositions of the present disclosure.
