What it is

Compound class
Radiohalogenated amino acid analogue (alpha-methyl-tyrosine derivative, O-methylated), LAT1 substrate
Target / mechanism
L-type amino acid transporter 1 (LAT1); developed from a seed compound (3-[211At]astato-α-methyl-L-tyrosine, 211At-AAMT-OH-L) by replacing the phenol OH with a methyl group, which increased tumour retention PMID 39596451
Clinical application
Targeted alpha-radionuclide therapy for LAT1-expressing tumours; described as the lead compound from a structure-activity series (OH, methyl, ethyl and propyl analogues compared), selected for uptake speed, high specific radioactivity, stability and therapeutic effect PMID 39596451
Theranostic pair

All precursors were labeled by "Shirakami Reaction" and purified using an HLB column (Waters Corp, Waltham, MA, USA). - 211At-AAMT-O-Me-L in the crude product solution was detected at Rf = 0.80, yielding a radiochemical yield (RCY) of 81.3%. The radiochemical yield and purity of the purified product were 81% and 98%, respectively.

Notes

Added stage 29 (2026-09-14): replaces the deleted 'at211-astato' fragment row (name was just the element 'astato', no active-ingredient root, 0 parsed syntheses). Its one remaining source, PMID 39596451 ('Development of LAT1-Selective Nuclear Medicine Therapeutics Using Astatine-211'), is a development-program review, but it names concrete compounds rather than describing the program in the abstract only -- quote: 'The seed compound was 3-[211At] Astato-α-methyl-L-tyrosine (211At-AAMT-OH-L)... By changing the OH group of phenol to a methyl group, retention was successfully increased... 211At-AAMT-O-Me-L, which has a simple structure, was clearly superior in terms of uptake speed for several candidate compounds.' This row tracks the named lead compound (AAMT-O-Me-L); the earlier seed compound (AAMT-OH-L) is mentioned here as context, not as its own row -- ask if a separate entry for it is wanted. Distinct from at211-aamp (2-[211At]astato-α-methyl-L-phenylalanine, PMID 32916470) -- different amino acid backbone (tyrosine vs phenylalanine), different source article, not the same compound.
