  • 11 DESCRIPTIONn n11.1 Chemical Characteristicsn nAmmonia N 13 Injection is a positron emitting radiopharmaceutical that is used for diagnostic purposesn nin conjunction with positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. The active ingredient, [13N] ammonia,n nhas the molecular formula of 13NH3 with a molecular weight of 16.02, and has the following chemicaln nstructure:n
  • 12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGYn n12.1 Mechanism of Actionn nAmmonia N 13 Injection is a radiolabeled analog of ammonia that is distributed to all organs of then nbody after intravenous administration. It is extracted from the blood in the coronary capillaries into then nmyocardial cells where it is metabolized to glutamine N 13 and retained in the cells. The presence ofn nammonia N 13 and glutamine N 13 in the myocardium allows for PET imaging of the myocardium.n n12.2 Pharmacodynamicsn nFollowing intravenous injection, ammonia N 13 enters the myocardium through the coronary arteries.n nThe PET technique measures myocardial blood flow based on the assumption of a threecompartmentaln ndisposition of intravenous ammonia N 13 in the myocardium. In this model, the value ofn nthe rate constant, which represents the delivery of blood to myocardium, and the fraction of ammonian nN 13 extracted into the myocardial cells, is a measure of myocardial blood flow. Optimal PET imaging ofn nthe myocardium is generally achieved between 10 to 20 minutes after administration.n n12.3 Pharmacokineticsn nFollowing intravenous injection, Ammonia N 13 Injection is cleared from the blood with a biologic halflifen nof about 2.84 minutes (effective half-life of about 2.21 minutes). In the myocardium, its biologic halflifen nhas been estimated to be less than 2 minutes (effective half-life less than 1.67 minutes).n nThe mass dose of Ammonia N 13 Injection is very small as compared to the normal range of ammonia inn nthe blood (0.72-3.30 mg) in a healthy adult man [see Description(11.1)].n nPlasma protein binding of ammonia N 13 or its N 13 metabolites has not been studied.n nAmmonia N 13 undergoes a five-enzyme step metabolism in the liver to yield urea N 13 (the mainn ncirculating metabolite). It is also metabolized to glutamine N 13 (the main metabolite in tissues) byn nglutamine synthesis in the skeletal muscles, liver, brain, myocardium, and other organs. Othern nmetabolites of ammonia N 13 include small amounts of N 13 amino acid anions (acidic amino acids) inn nthe forms of glutamate N 13 or aspartate N 13.n nAmmonia N 13 is eliminated from the body by urinary excretion mainly as urea N 13.n nThe pharmacokinetics of Ammonia N 13 Injection have not been studied in renally impaired, hepaticallyn nimpaired, or pediatric patients.n
  • 13 NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGYn n13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertilityn nLong term animal studies have not been performed to evaluate the carcinogenic potential ofn nAmmonia N 13 Injection. Genotoxicity assays and impairment of male and female fertility studies withn nAmmonia N 13 Injection have not been performed.n
  • 14 CLINICAL STUDIESn nIn a descriptive, prospective, blinded image interpretation study2 of adult patients with known orn nsuspected coronary artery disease, myocardial perfusion deficits in stress and rest PET images obtainedn nwith Ammonia N 13 (N=111) or Rubidium 82 (N=82) were compared to changes in stenosis flow reserven n(SFR) as determined by coronary angiography. The principal outcome of the study was the evaluationn nof PET defect severity relative to SFR.n nPET perfusion defects at rest and stress for seven cardiac regions (anterior, apical, anteroseptal,n nposteroseptal, anterolateral, posterolateral, and inferior walls) were graded on a 0 to 5 scale defined asn nnormal (0), possible (1), probable (2), mild (3), moderate (4), and severe (5) defects. Coronaryn nangiograms were used to measure absolute and relative stenosis dimensions and to calculate stenosisn nflow reserve defined as the maximum value of flow at maximum coronary vasodilatation relative to restn nflow under standardized hemodynamic conditions. SFR scores ranged from 0 (total occlusion) to 5n n(normal)n nWith increasing impairment of flow reserve, the subjective PET defect severity increased. A PET defectn nscore of 2 or higher was positively correlated with flow reserve impairment (SFR<3)n
