Outcomes and patterns of use of Radium-223 in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. [PDF]
Introduction Radium-223 dichloride (Ra-223) is recommended as a treatment option for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) patients with symptomatic bone metastases and no visceral disease, after docetaxel failure, or in patients who ...

Randomized Phase II Study Evaluating the Addition of Pembrolizumab to Radium-223 in Metastatic Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer. [PDF]
This first-in-human, randomized trial demonstrates that combining radium-223 with pembrolizumab does not significantly impact the tumor microenvironment in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. Data highlight that upregulation of

Circulating and Imaging Biomarkers of Radium-223 Response in Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer. [PDF]
PURPOSE Radium-223 improves overall survival (OS) and reduces skeletal events in patients with bone metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), but relevant biomarkers are lacking. We evaluated automated bone scan index (aBSI) and circulating

Radium-223 Treatment Produces Prolonged Suppression of Resident Osteoblasts and Decreased Bone Mineral Density in Trabecular Bone in Osteoblast Reporter Mice. [PDF]
Simple Summary Radium 223 (Ra-223) is a radiopharmaceutical that targets tumor-induced osteoblasts (bone-forming cells). Ra-223 reduces bone pain and prolongs overall survival in men with bone-metastatic, castrate-resistant prostate cancer.
