The radium based therapeutic, Radspherin® has shown strong and consistent anticancer activity without signs of product related toxicity in preclinical studies. It is anticipated that the product can potentially treat several forms of metastatic cancer. The first clinical indication for Radspherin® will be treatment of peritoneal carcinomatosis. Peritoneal carcinomatosis is one of the most serious complications of gastrointestinal and gynecological malignancies.
