Bone-seeking radiopharmaceuticals have been used to effectively treat cancer arising from and metastasizing to bone in humans and dogs. The rate of complete tumor control is low, and the geographic distribution of available compounds is limited by their half-lives. This experiment was done to evaluate in normal dogs the toxicity of (177)Lu-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetramethylene phosphonate ((177)Lu-DOTMP) used as a potential therapeutic radiopharmaceutical.
