Iobenguane,orMIBG,is an aralkylguanidine analog of theadrenergic neurotransmitternorepinephrine(noradrenaline), typically used as aradiopharmaceutical.[3]It acts as a blocking agent foradrenergic neurons.Whenradiolabeled,it can be used innuclear medicinaldiagnostic and therapy techniques as well as inneuroendocrinechemotherapytreatments.

It localizes to adrenergic tissue and thus can be used to identify the location oftumorssuch aspheochromocytomasandneuroblastomas.[4]Withiodine-131it can also be used to treat tumor cells that take up and metabolize norepinephrine.

Usage and mechanism

[edit]

MIBG is absorbed by and accumulated in granules of adrenal medullarychromaffin cells,as well as in pre-synaptic adrenergic neurongranules.The process in which this occurs is closely related to the mechanism employed by norepinephrine and its transporterin vivo.[5][6]Thenorepinephrine transporter(NET) functions to provide norepinephrineuptakeat thesynaptic terminalsand adrenal chromaffin cells. MIBG, by bonding to NET, finds its roles in imaging and therapy.

Metabolites and excretion

[edit]

Less than 10% of the administered MIBG getsmetabolizedinto m-iodohippuric acid (MIHA), and the mechanism for how this metabolite is produced is unknown.[7]

Diagnostic imaging

[edit]

Pheochromocytomaseen as dark sphere in center of the body (it is in the left adrenal gland). Image is by MIBGscintigraphy,withradiationfrom radioiodine in the MIBG. Two images are seen of the same patient from front and back. Note dark image of thethyroiddue to unwanted uptake of iodide radioiodine from breakdown of the pharmaceutical, by the thyroid gland in the neck. Uptake at the side of the head are from the salivary glands. Radioactivity is also seen in the bladder, from normal renal excretion of iodide.

MIBG concentrates inendocrine tumors,most commonly neuroblastoma,paraganglioma,andpheochromocytoma.It also accumulates in norepinephrine transporters in adrenergic nerves in theheart,lungs,adrenal medulla,salivary glands,liver,andspleen,as well as in tumors that originate in theneural crest.When labelled withiodine-123it serves as a whole-body, non-invasivescintigraphicscreening forgerm-line,somatic,benign, and malignantneoplasmsoriginating in the adrenal glands. It can detect both intra and extra-adrenal disease. The imaging is highly sensitive and specific.[8][9]

Iobenguane concentrates in presynaptic terminals of the heart and otherautonomically innervatedorgans. This enables the possiblenon-invasiveuse as an in vivo probe to study these systems.[10][11]

Alternatives to imaging with123I-MIBG, for certain indications and under clinical and research use, include thepositron-emittingisotopeiodine-124,and other radiopharmaceuticals such as68Ga-DOTAand18F-FDOPAforpositron emission tomography(PET).[9][12][13]123I-MIBG imaging on agamma cameracan offer significantly higher cost-effectiveness and availability compared to PET imaging, and is particularly effective where131I-MIBG therapy is subsequently planned, due to their directly comparable uptake.[14][9][15]

Side effects

[edit]

Side effects post imaging are rare but can includetachycardia,pallor,vomiting, and abdominal pain.[9]

Radionuclide therapy

[edit]

MIBG can be radiolabelled with thebeta emittingradionuclide131I for the treatment of certain pheochromocytomas, paragangliomas,carcinoid tumors,neuroblastomas, andmedullary thyroid cancer.[16]

Thyroid precautions

[edit]

Thyroid blockade with (nonradioactive) potassium iodide is indicated for nuclear medicine scintigraphy with iobenguane/mIBG. This competitively inhibits radioiodine uptake, preventing excessive radioiodine levels in the thyroid and minimizing risk of thyroid ablation (in treatment with131I). The minimal risk of thyroid cancer is also reduced as a result.[9][17]

The dosing regime for theFDA-approved commercial123I-MIBG product Adreview ispotassium iodideorLugol's solutioncontaining 100 mg iodide, weight adjusted for children and given an hour before injection.[18]EANMguidelines, endorsed by theSNMMI,suggest a variety of regimes in clinical use, for both children and adults.[9][12]

Product labeling for diagnostic131I iobenguane recommends giving potassium iodide one day before injection and continuing 5 to 7 days following.[19]131I iobenguane used for therapeutic purposes requires a different pre-medication duration, beginning 24–48 hours before iobenguane injection and continuing 10–15 days after injection.[16]

Clinical trials

[edit]

Iobenguane I 131 for cancers

[edit]

Iobenguane I 131, marketed under the trade nameAzedra,has had a clinical trial as a treatment for malignant, recurrent or unresectable pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma, and theFDAapprovedit on July 30, 2018. The drug is developed by Progenics Pharmaceuticals.[20][21]
