Thor Medical Enters into an Agreement with Node Pharma for Supply of Radium-224 and Lead-212

The agreement follows successful product sample deliveries from Thor Medical’s pilot facility at Herøya Industrial Park to Node Pharma and supports further expansion of Node Pharma’s development pipeline for alpha-emitting therapies. Radium-224 and lead-212, together with thorium-228, are part of Thor Medical’s portfolio of products.

“The agreement is a further validation of our capabilities to deliver high-quality products from our facility at Herøya, but most importantly it confirms a market trend we have observed over time, namely the growing demand for isotopes such as radium-224 and lead-212. With Node Pharma as a partner, we are supporting an exciting development program while gaining valuable insight into future product needs,” said Jasper C. Kurth, CEO of Thor Medical.

“Reliable isotope supply is a critical enabler for our pipeline strategy. This agreement with Thor Medical broadens our access to key alpha-emitting isotopes and supports the continued expansion of our alpha pipeline,” said Erik Mjåland, Chief Business Officer and Co-founder of Node Pharma.
