Three new water-soluble chlorin derivatives 3, 5 and 8 for potential use as photosensitizers in photodynamic therapy (PDT) for cancer were synthesized from photoprotoporphyrin IX dimethyl ester (1). The in vivo biodistribution and clearance of chlorin derivatives 3, 5 and 8 were investigated in tumor-bearing mice. Iminodiacetic acid derivative 8 showed the greatest tumor-selective accumulation among the new chlorin derivatives with maximum accumulation in tumor tissue at 3 h after intravenous injection and rapid clearance from normal tissues within 24 h after injection. The in vivo therapeutic efficacy of PDT using 8 was evaluated by measuring tumor growth rates in tumor-bearing mice with 660 nm light-emitting diode irradiation at 3 h after injection of 8. Tumor growth was significantly inhibited by PDT using 8. These results indicate that iminodiacetic acid derivative 8 is useful as a new photosensitizer to overcome the disadvantages of photosensitizers that are currently in clinical use.
