Bayer HealthCare Pharmaceuticals’ investigational compound radium-223 chloride, which is exclusively licensed from Algeta ASA, has been granted Fast Track designation by the FDA for the treatment of castration-resistant (hormone-refractory) prostate cancer in patients with bone metastases.

Radium-223 chloride is an investigational agent and is not approved by the FDA, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) or other Health Authorities.
