Thorium chelators for Targeted Alpha Therapy: Rapid chelation of thorium-226.
One of the main challenges in Targeted Alpha Therapy is assuring delivery of the α-particle dose to the targeted cells. Thus, it is critical to identify ligands for α-emitting radiometals that will form complexes which are very stable, both in vitro and ...

An update on iron chelation therapy. [PDF]
Iron overload is a common clinical problem, arising from disorders of increased iron absorption such as hereditary haemochromatosis or thalassaemia intermedia syndromes or as a consequence of chronic blood transfusions for various blood disorders. Regular red blood cell (RBC) transfusions are the principal supportive therapy for many rare anaemias ...
