Castration-resistant prostate osseous metastases can be challenging to treat. There is a new era of clinical advancement with the Food and Drug Administration approval of radium-223 for use in these patients. Radium-223 is the only clinically used therapeutic radiopharmaceutical that emits alpha particles, making it extremely safe for therapeutic purposes for the patient as well as close contacts. This review discusses radium-223's mechanism of action, pharmacokinetics, indications, and safety profile, as well as findings of concluded clinical trials.
去势抵抗性前列腺骨转移瘤的治疗颇具挑战性。随着美国食品药品监督管理局批准镭-223用于治疗这些患者,临床进展进入了一个新时代。镭-223是唯一临床上使用的发射α粒子的治疗性放射性药物,这使其对患者及其密切接触者而言在治疗用途上极其安全。本综述讨论了镭-223的作用机制、药代动力学、适应证、安全性概况以及已完成临床试验的结果。
