Orano Med

Based on an R&D program started in 2005, Orano Med has developed new processes for producing high-purity lead-212 (Pb-212), a rare radioactive isotope. Lead-212 is currently at the heart of promising projects in nuclear medicine to develop new treatments against cancer. The innovative approach, known as targeted alpha therapy (TAT), recognizes and destroys cancer cells while limiting the impact on nearby healthy cells.
