Oslo, 30 August 2024: Thor Medical ASA, a leading emerging supplier of alpha-emitters for next-generation precision cancer treatment, today announced results for the first half of 2024. The pilot facilities at Herøya Industrial Park are progressing as planned and the company has started a concept study for a ‘fast-track’ plant with the ambition to bring commercial product volumes to market as soon as possible.
“Thor Medical has progressed the new pilot facilities at Herøya on time and cost, and we look forward to supplying our customers in the radiotherapeutics market with quality product samples towards the end of the year. We see a significant shift in clinical development toward targeted alpha therapies with lead-212 and radium-224 isotopes. Our existing and prospective customers are addressing large groups of cancer patients with a huge unmet therapeutic need and are outlining a large potential demand for thorium-228, radium-224 and lead-212 as radioactive compounds. We strongly believe that our technology can be their foundation and that Thor Medical is able to ramp and scale up production in close synchronization with our customers’ clinical development and commercial launch activities”, says CEO Jasper Kurth.
