Radionuclides have been used to treat skeletal diseases for decades.<br />

At present an array of radionuclides have been proposed for treating<br />

bone pain due to cancer. The most promising among these<br />

radionuclides is 153Sm. This radionuclide has favourable radition<br />

characteristics t1/2= 1.93d, βmax= 0.81 Mev(20%), 0.71 Mev<br />

(49%), 0.64 Mev (30%) and γ=103 Kev (30%) emission which is<br />

suitable for imaging purposes during therapy. Various bone palliative<br />

therapeutic agents have been developed for bone metastasis such as<br />

153Sm-EDTMP, widely used in the world. (EDTMP) has been proved<br />

to be a good therapeutic agent for the treatment of pain due to<br />

skeletal metastases and is now commercialized. In this study,<br />

production, quality control and biodistribution studies of a newly<br />

developed therapeutic compound have been presented followed by<br />

imaging studies in wild-type rodents. 153Sm-TTHMP was prepared<br />

starting 153Sm-SmCl3, prepared by neutron activation of an enriched<br />

152Sm sample (purity >98%), and in-house synthesized TTHMP in<br />

1h at 25ºC followed by stability tests, partition coefficient<br />

determination and biodistribution studies of in wild-type rodents<br />

using scarification. The radiolabeled Sm complex was prepared in<br />

high radiochemical purity (>99%, ITLC) and specific activity of 278<br />

GBq/mmol and demonstrated significant stability at 4, 25 and 37ºC<br />

(in presence of human serum). Initial biodistribution data showed<br />

significant bone accumulation of the tracer in 48h. The produced<br />

153Sm-TTHMP properties suggest an efficiently new bone palliative<br />

therapeutic agent in the country in order to overcome the metastatic<br />

bone pains.<br />
