Objective: To study the efficiency of treatment via single administration of high-purity 89Sr chloride in the standard activity of 150 MBq for pain syndrome in patients with multiple bone metastases.

Subjects And Methods: The authors carried out clinical trials of high-purity 89Sr chloride used to treat 30 patients with multiple bone metastases from cancers at various sites. The results of treatment were analyzed in 30 patients with multiple bone metastases, who had received systemic radiation therapy with high-purity 89Sr chloride in the standard activity of 150 MBq. These were assessed using some indicators: the intensity of pain syndrome and the blood concentrations of hemoglobin, leukocytes, and platelets.

Results: There was evidence for the use of high-purity 89Sr chloride in the therapy of patients with cancer at various sites with multiple bone metastases. The major indicators (pain syndrome, the blood concentrations of hemoglobin, leukocytes, and platelets) were compared before and after the treatment. These were also compared with those obtained with the use of usual 89Sr chloride.

Conclusion: The therapeutic action of high-purity 89Sr chloride is comparable with that of 89Sr chloride in the standard activity; moreover, the analgesic effect of high-purity 89Sr chloride is being significantly higher. It has less significant myelotoxic activity than usual 89Sr chloride. High-purity 89Sr chloride is an effective radiopharmaceutical agent and may be used for systemic radiotherapy in patients with multiple bone metastatic lesion.

SrCl radiopharmaceuticals is mainly used for bone pain palliation in the cancer patients, is being produced in FBTR via Y(n, p)Sr using yttria target. The irradiated yttria target is chemically processed in high pure quartz distilled nitric acid medium in hot cell facility, to avoid the corrosion of components of hotcell due to chloride ions while using HCl medium. Being ionic species, the purified Sr(II) cation in aqueous solution containing bulk nitrate and other trace anions, exists as SrX species where X: F, Cl, Br, NO, PO and SO, n: stoichiometric anion content.

To utilize single-photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) scanning to investigate the usefulness of nerve root compression (NRC) and radioactive cold zone lesions (RCZLs) for predicting poor therapeutic efficacy of strontium-89 chloride (Sr-89) in patients with bone metastasis. Patients with bone metastatic neoplasms who had undergone baseline bone SPECT/CT scanning before Sr-89 therapy (148 MBq Sr-89 chloride by an intravenous injection for each patient) between July 2011 and July 2018 were included. Bone SPECT/CT images were assessed by two readers independently.

Extravasation of various imaging tracers during administration was not a rare complication during nuclear medicine practice. However, the occurrence of extravasation of therapeutic radiopharmaceutical was rarely reported. Here we reported a 60-year-old woman with breast cancer and diffuse painful bone metastases who received strontium chloride (SrCl2) therapy to palliate her bone pain.

In recent years, radionuclides like Lu have been considered promising material for the creation of therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals. With the therapeutic use of radiopharmaceuticals, the absorbed doses per tumor may exceed 10 Gy. It is extremely important that doses absorbed by healthy organs and tissues do not exceed the threshold for the incidence of deterministic effects.
