"Patients with advanced Neuroendocrine Tumors (NETs) have limited treatment options available to them. Our goal is to address this unmet clinical need by using targeted alpha-emitter therapy", said Izabela Tworowska, PhD, CSO of RadioMedix. "We are grateful to NCI for acknowledging the importance of alpha-emitter therapy and supporting our clinical studies of 212Pb-octreotate analog. This SBIR Phase II Contract is the second award highlighting RadioMedix – Orano Med collaboration."

"TAT is believed to be the next generation of radiopharmaceuticals in the field of Radioligand Therapy (RLT) in oncology. Our proprietary 212Pb labeled agent has potential to advance the effectiveness of Peptide Receptor Radionuclide therapy (PRRT) as compared to currently approved PRRT agents for neuroendocrine cancers", said Dr. Ebrahim S. Delpassand, CEO of RadioMedix. "Unique properties of 212Pb can induce targeted and irreversible damage to the cancer cells, which can result in significant clinical benefits to NET patients", added Dr. Delpassand.

This project has been funded in part with Federal funds from the National Cancer Institute, National Institutes of Health, Department of Health and Human Services, under Contract No. HHSN261201800048C.
