Analysis of elimination mechanisms of some 99mTc-complexes.
The biological behaviour of complexes of 99mTc with aminopolycarboxylic and aminocarbohydroxamic ligands EDTA (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid), DTPA (diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid), EDTAH (ethylenediaminetetraacetohydroxamic acid) and HIDAmH (N-2-hydroxyethyl-N-carboxymethyl-aminoacetohydroxamic acid) was studied in rabbits. The pharmacokinetic parameters determined in intact rabbits were compared with the results obtained in the study of renal and hepatic clearance of the complexes under study. Hepatobiliary excretion, which in [99mTc]EDTA forms 20-30% of the total excreted amount, is of negligible magnitude in the other 99mTc-complexes studied (less than 2%). Their renal clearance is not influenced by the inhibition of tubular secretion with probenecid. Binding to plasma proteins increases in the order [99mTc]DTPA less than [99mTc]EDTA less than [99mTc]HIDAmH less than [99mTc]EDTAH and the elimination half-life increases in the same order. The value of renal clearance of the complexes studied related to inulin clearance correlates well with the fraction of the free drug in the plasma. In rabbits the complexes under study are excreted mainly by the mechanism of glomerular filtration in the kidney.
