| Improving Global Access to Life-Saving Radiopharmaceuticals JANESVILLE, Wis., March 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- SHINE Technologies, a leader in medical isotope production, will showcase its innovative capabilities for producing non-carrier-added lutetium-177 (n.c.a Lu-177), a radioisotope used in targeted cancer treatments, at the 7th Theranostic World Congress (TWC), March 22-24 in Santiago, Chile. Attendees are invited to visit Booth A13 to learn about SHINE’s production capabilities at its Cassiopeia facility.
SHINE’s proprietary technology allows for the cost-effective, and environmentally responsible production of Lu-177. N.c.a Lu-177 plays a crucial role in targeted radiopharmaceuticals, acting as a precise weapon against cancer cells. When coupled with specific molecules that target tumors, Lu-177 delivers localized radiation directly to cancer cells, minimizing damage to healthy tissue. SHINE’s proprietary technology allows for the efficient, cost-effective, and environmentally responsible production of n.c.a. Lu-177. With a goal of becoming the world’s first integrated manufacturer of the isotope, SHINE already produces its own supply of enriched ytterbium-176, an essential isotope used to create n.c.a. Lu-177. The global demand for high-quality Lu-177 is increasing. SHINE’s recently opened facility in Janesville, Wisconsin – the largest North American production facility dedicated to n.c.a Lu-177 – strengthens the company’s ability to meet this growing need. Cassiopeia is expected to have the capacity to produce up to 200,000 patient doses annually, significantly impacting global access to life-saving treatments. SHINE invites attendees to visit Booth A13 to learn more about its industry-leading production capabilities for n.c.a Lu-177.
