Prostate cancer Drug's journey through bone tracked in new study

NCT ID NCT04521361

First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 27 times

Summary

This study looked at how the drug radium-223 moves through bones in men with prostate cancer that has spread to the bones. Researchers wanted to see how much of the drug goes to healthy bone versus tumor areas. The study involved 46 men who received up to 6 injections of radium-223 and had scans to track the drug. The goal was to learn more about the drug's distribution, not to treat the cancer directly.
