GMP TERBIUM-161 PRODUCT LAUNCHED BY TERTHERA
TerThera B.V. has officially launched the world’s first GMP-compliant Terbium-161 NCA, setting a new benchmark in the commercial scale production of this promising radionuclide. Now, with the successful implementation of European Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), TerThera’s Terbium-161 meets the highest quality and safety standards required for clinical trials and patient care across Europe and beyond. This lowers regulatory barriers and accelerates the path to new therapies providing hospitals, clinicians, and researchers immediate access to this next-generation therapeutic radionuclide Terbium-161.

A New Era in Cancer Treatment
Terbium-161 NCA is a no-carrier-added, neutron-activated radionuclide uniquely suited for Radio Ligand Therapy (RLT). With an abundant emission of Auger electrons and high Linear Energy Transfer (LET), combined with similar chemical characteristics to well-known radiolanthanides, Tb-161 brings a high potential to decimate both primary tumors and (micro) metastases. When paired with proven targeting vectors like PSMA, SST, and FAPI analogues, Tb-161 demonstrates a bioequivalence while significantly increasing absorbed doses in all lesions, offering novel treatment options and strategies in cancer healthcare, improving the overall disease control and may even overcome radio-resistant disease.
