Note: Calculate administration volume using patient weight, radioactivity content (at the reference date), and decay correction factor; determine net patient dose immediately before and after administration with an appropriate radioisotope dose calibrator; refer to product labeling for further details. Prior to initial dose, ANC should be ≥1,500/mm3, platelets ≥100,000/mm3, and hemoglobin ≥10 g/dL.
Prostate cancer, castration resistant with symptomatic bone metastases: IV: 55 kBq/kg (1.49 microcurie/kg) every 4 weeks for 6 doses.
Dosage adjustment for concomitant therapy: Significant drug interactions exist, requiring dose/frequency adjustment or avoidance. Consult drug interactions database for more information.
CrCl 30 to 89 mL/minute: No dosage adjustment necessary.
CrCl <30 mL/minute: There are no dosage adjustments provided in the manufacturer's labeling, (has not been studied).
Mild impairment: No dosage adjustment necessary.
Moderate to severe impairment: There are no dosage adjustments provided in the manufacturer's labeling (has not been studied); however, dosage adjustment is not likely needed because not metabolized hepatically or eliminated in bile.
ANC <1,000/mm3 or platelets <50,000/mm3 (prior to subsequent doses): Withhold treatment until hematologic recovery; if recovery does not occur within 6 to 8 weeks from the last dose (despite supportive care), discontinue radium Ra 223 treatment.
Compromised bone marrow reserve: Closely monitor; discontinue if life-threatening complications occur despite supportive care
Refer to adult dosing.

Concerns related to adverse effects:
• Bone marrow suppression: Hematologic toxicity, including anemia, lymphocytopenia, thrombocytopenia, leukopenia, and neutropenia commonly occur. Bone marrow failure occurred in 2% of patients receiving radium Ra 223 dichloride in clinical studies (did not occur in patients who received placebo). Bone marrow failure may be prolonged and fatal (rare); may require blood transfusion support. Vascular hemorrhage due to thrombocytopenia has been reported. Infection may occur due to neutropenia. Neutrophils and platelet nadirs typically occurred 2 to 3 weeks after administration; recovery generally occurred ~6 to 8 weeks after administration.
• Dehydration: Dehydration may occur due to GI adverse events (diarrhea, nausea, vomiting).
• Secondary malignancies: Although fewer malignancies were reported for radium Ra 223 dichloride than for placebo (from clinical studies), long-term cumulative radiation exposure may increase the risk for malignancies (onset may be delayed).
Concurrent drug therapy issues:
• Abiraterone acetate: Concurrent use with abiraterone acetate plus prednisone/prednisolone outside of a clinical trial is not recommended due to an increased incidence of fractures and deaths.
• Chemotherapy: The safety and efficacy of concurrent chemotherapy have not been established. Due to the potential for additive bone marrow toxicity, concurrent use with chemotherapy is not recommended outside of a clinical trial. Discontinue radium Ra 223 if chemotherapy, other systemic radioisotopes, or external radiotherapy are required.
Special handling:
• Radiopharmaceutical: Use appropriate precautions for handling, disposal, and minimizing exposure to patients and healthcare personnel. Use only under supervision of individuals with experience/training in the handling of radioactive materials approved by the applicable regulatory authority. Patients and caregivers should use the following precautions to minimize exposure:
- When handling bodily fluids, wear gloves and wash hands after handling.
- Wash any clothing soiled with radium Ra 223 dichloride promptly and separately from other clothing.
- Where a normal toilet is available, use in preference to a urinal.
- Flush toilet several times after use.
- Wash hands thoroughly after urination.

The American Society of Clinical Oncology hepatitis B virus (HBV) screening and management provisional clinical opinion (ASCO [Hwang 2020]) recommends HBV screening with hepatitis B surface antigen, hepatitis B core antibody, total Ig or IgG, and antibody to hepatitis B surface antigen prior to beginning (or at the beginning of) systemic anticancer therapy; do not delay treatment for screening/results. Detection of chronic or past HBV infection requires a risk assessment to determine antiviral prophylaxis requirements, monitoring, and follow up.
Radium Ra 223 is an alpha particle-emitting isotope; it emits high energy, short-range alpha particles which target bone metastases; mimics calcium to form complexes with bone mineral in areas with increased bone turnover. Alpha emission induces double strand DNA breaks in adjacent cells, which results in an antitumor effect on the bone metastases.
