The palliation of bone pain is a common clinical problem once metastatic prostate cancer has escaped from hormonal control. This retrospective study compares the results of treatment using hemibody irradiation (HBI) at the Royal Marsden Hospital (27 cases) with isotope therapy using the bone-seeking
The phase II clinical trial of a strontium (89Sr) chloride agent (SMS. 2P) was performed in 9 patients with painful bone metastases secondary to prostate cancer. After an intravenous administration, 89Sr circulated in the plasma and was rapidly cleared. Urinary excretion varied widely among the
The phase III clinical trial of strontium-89 chloride agent (SMS.2P) was performed in 90 patients with painful bone metastases secondary to prostate (53), breast (18) and other types of cancer (19). Some patients experienced a transient increase in pain or nausea and vomiting. However both symptoms
High-energy ionizing radiation is harmful. Low-level exposure sources include background, occupational, and medical diagnostics. Radiation disaster incidents include radioactive substance accidents and nuclear power plant accidents. Terrorism and international conflict could trigger intentional
Radiation is an effective modality for palliation of osseous metastases. In patients with a limited number of lesions, local external beam irradiation is the most expedient method of delivering radiation therapy. Complete or partial relief of pain will occur in 80-90% of patients. When metastases
BACKGROUND
A meta-analysis was conducted to assess the impact of radiopharmaceuticals (RPs) in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) on pain control, symptomatic skeletal events (SSEs), toxicity profile, quality of life (QoL), and overall survival (OS).
