SUPPLYING THE FIGHT AGAINST CANCER

In the fight against cancer, hope, health and progress are being held back by supply chains. Nusano is working to remove these barriers and usher in a new era in cancer care.

REVOLUTIONIZING RADIOISOTOPE PRODUCTION

The promise of medical radioisotopes has for too long been held back by technical limitations, supply outages, and waste stream concerns. The Nusano production platform is poised to address all these issues – stabilizing supply chains, and making a wide variety of isotopes available to drugmakers, researchers, and clinicians.

ensuring reliable, high-volume production

Nusano’s role in the health care ecosystem is as a supplier of medical radioisotopes to drugmakers, hospitals and clinics. With a reliable supply of radioisotopes, these teams can then formulate treatments and next-generation pharmaceuticals needed to advance the fight against cancer.

THE NUSANO PRODUCTION PLATFORM

Without a reliable supply of medical-grade radioisotopes, pharmaceutical makers and cancer centers cannot design next-generation cancer diagnostics, drugs and treatments. The result is patient care driven by what is accessible, rather than what is possible.

The Nusano production platform combines time-proven technology from universities and world-class research centers with the company’s patented particle acceleration technology.

The result is the first significant advancement in radioisotope production in decades – a platform that’s smaller, safer and more efficient than existing methods, and capable of the simultaneous manufacturing of multiple radioisotopes needed for advanced pharmaceuticals, treatments and procedures.

SIMULTANEOUS PRODUCTION

The Nusano platform is capable of generating up to 12 different isotopes simultaneously – a giant leap forward – enabling commercial-scale production of the active pharmaceutical ingredients needed for next-generation cancer diagnostics and therapeutics.

Powered by a patented ion source, the Nusano production platform enables the simultaneous production of a wide variety of radioisotopes at unprecedented quantities.

ION SOURCE + LINEAR ACCELERATOR

Radioisotope production begins within Nusano’s patented ion source.

Here, heavy ions are created at rates hundreds of times greater than existing commercial systems and focused into a linear accelerator.

L

TRAVEL & DIRECTION

Pulses of highly accelerated ions leave the linear accelarator and are directed through a series of magnets as a beam.

L

ISOTOPE CREATION

Highly charged particles travel down the beam line to one of 12 targets. When the particles collide with the target material nucleus, a radioisotope is created.

HIGH VOLUME

Scalable production supporting mulitple product lines

CUSTOMIZABLE

Rapidly adaptable platform to support emerging therapeutics needs

COST-EFFECTIVE

Production options enable efficiencies and support increasing demand

Innovation

Advancements with radioisotopes

Nusano is combining time-proven technology from universities and world-class research centers with our own breakthrough, patented particle acceleration technology. The result is the first significant advancement in medical radioisotope production in decades – a platform fitting the needs of today and designed for cancer-fighting radiopharmaceuticals of tomorrow.

Life Saving Benefits

Health care has used radioisotopes for decades. But, if supply does not keep up with demand, patients will lose out on the benefits of these lifesaving, proven tools.

Implications

a healthier tomorrow

Nusano’s patented technologies and methods are poised to transform radioisotope production and usher in an exciting new era in cancer care. When it opens, our state-of-the-art facility in West Valley City, Utah will produce radioisotopes quickly, efficiently, and affordably. This will make desperately needed resources available to hospitals and cancer clinics around the world and offer those with life-threatening diseases hope for a healthier tomorrow.

At the core of many oncology therapies are radioisotopes. However, increasingly limited supply inhibits patient outcomes and the development of new therapies.

how nusano is working to ENABLE advancements in cancer care

Nusano is a privately held physics company committed to bringing supply stability and innovation to the rapidly emerging and critically undersupplied medical radioisotopes market, and to serving industrial and commercial markets dependent on reliable access to high quality radioisotopes for their products and services. Driven by the company’s proprietary ion source, the Nusano production platform will generate radioisotopes in volumes and varieties exceeding other production methods. Nusano’s breakthrough technologies are poised to help supply the fight against cancer and enable innovation across multiple industries.

We believe supply chains should not determine a patient’s treatment options. Yet, all too often, this is what happens.

Next-generation cancer therapies are being held back because critical components (medical radioisotopes) needed for advanced therapies and new methods of diagnosis are scarce. Many existing manufacturing techniques for the production of radioisotopes and the facilities relied upon by drugmakers around the world are aging, outdated, inefficient and have limited production capabilities. This threatens the ability to meet current patient needs for medical radioisotopes and stifles innovation.

We need new solutions. That’s where Nusano comes in.

Nusano is a medical radioisotope supplier with a first-of-its-kind radioisotope production platform. Medical radioisotopes are tiny tracers used by doctors to diagnose and treat cancer, Alzheimer’s, heart disease and other diseases. Doctors use medical radioisotopes like flashlights to light up areas inside the body. They can see how blood is flowing, how organs are functioning, even how cells are growing. Advanced medicines and treatment methods also use medical radioisotopes to target and eliminate cancer cells with precision.

Health care has used radioisotopes for decades. But supply hasn’t kept up with demand, leaving patients without the benefits of these lifesaving, proven tools.

Nusano’s patented technologies and methods are poised to transform the production of radioisotopes and help usher in an exciting new era in health care. Opening in 2025, our state-of-the-art radioisotope production platform in West Valley City, Utah will produce radioisotopes quickly, efficiently and affordably. This will make desperately needed medical radioisotopes available to patients around the world and offer those with life-threatening diseases hope for a healthier tomorrow.

How does Nusano contribute to radiopharmaceuticals development?
  • Nusano is medical radioisotope supplier to drugmakers, hospitals and clinics. With a reliable supply of radioisotopes, these teams can then formulate treatments and next-generation pharmaceuticals needed to advance the fight against cancer.
  • Nusano has developed a radioisotope production platform that is smaller, safer and more efficient than existing technologies to reliably produce medical radioisotopes at the heart of next-generation cancer treatments and diagnosis techniques.
  • Radioisotopes are essential components in the active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) of a category of new and emerging cancer therapies, known as radiotherapeutics. Existing supply chains for these treatment-enabling resources are often strained, posing a risk to patient care, clinical trials, and ongoing drug development.
