Abstract

Changes in expression and dysfunctional signaling of TrkA/B/C receptors and oncogenic Trk fusion proteins are found in neurological diseases and cancers. Here, we describe the development of a first F-18-labeled optimized lead suitable for in vivo imaging of Trk, [F-18]TRACK, which is radiosynthesized with ease from a nonactivated aryl precursor concurrently combining largely reduced P-gp liability and improved brain kinetics compared to previous leads while displaying high on-target affinity and human kinome selectivity.
