Oslo, 22 November, 2024: Thor Medical, a leading emerging supplier of alpha-emitters for next-generation precision cancer treatment, has signed an agreement with a globally leading pharmaceutical company for the supply of Pb-212 alpha-emitters for use in pre-clinical studies.
Thor Medical will supply the Pb-212 isotopes from its newly established Herøya pilot facilities. Pb-212, or Lead-212, is a therapeutic radioisotope for precision cancer treatment with a short half-life, derived from the Thorium-228 decay. Deliveries will commence in 2025 under a three-year supply agreement.
“While the volumes under this agreement reflect that the intended use is for pre-clinical studies and evaluation and not commercial scale, this agreement highlights our ability to establish contracts with major players in the pharmaceutical industry, demonstrating trust in our capabilities to deliver the high-quality radioisotopes required to enable highly promising next-generation precision cancer treatments,” says Jasper Kurth, CEO of Thor Medical.
This supply agreement adds to recent milestones including the signing of a strategic long-term supply agreement of Thorium-228 to ARTBIO, and the recent first shipment of product samples from the Herøya pilot facility to another undisclosed potential customer.
On 25 November, Thor Medical will host a Capital Markets Update in Stockholm, featuring presentations from both Thor Medical and ARTBIO.
