Fully automated production of 11C-doxepin for PET imaging histamine H1 receptor.
Article in Molecular imaging and biology, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectives(11)C-Doxepin is an established positron emission tomography (PET) probe for imaging the histamine H1 receptor, which is associated with various neurological disorders and allergic diseases. A fully automated current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP)-compliant radiosynthesis is therefore desirable in order to facilitate clinical PET studies. We report here a fully automated production method for (11)C-doxepin using a multipurpose PET module for clinical use.
methods(11)C-Doxepin was radiosynthesized by N-[(11)C]methylation of nordoxepin using [(11)C]methyl iodide in DMF solvent, and then purified by HPLC, and finally reformulated with solid phase extraction (SPE) using a cGMP-compliant automated multipurpose PET module developed in house. The final product was analyzed and subjected to quality control according to current US Pharmacopeia requirements.
resultsThe radiochemical yield (decay corrected) of (11)C-doxepin for clinical use was 47.0 ± 5.2% (n = 12) based on [(11)C]methyl iodide, moreover the radiochemical purity of (11)C-doxepin was more than 97.5% with 1,200 ± 500 Ci/mmol specific activity(end of production). The total production time of (11)C-doxepin was 37 min from end of bombardment (EOB) with the final product passing all tests under cGMP requirements for clinical use.
conclusionsA simplified and reliable fully automated production of (11) C-doxepin for clinical use was developed, allowing the synthesis of the tracer with high yield using a cGMP-compliant module and procedure. The success of this approach could make the PET tracer (11) C-doxepin more accessible for clinical studies.
