Along with specific trial information. TheranosticTrials.org contains much easy-to-understand background information on what is Theranostics, what is radiation, and dispelling many of the myths and misconceptions of clinical trials.
Distinguished Investigator
A Distinguished Investigator of Theranostics is a level of distinction conferred upon an individual physician who has demonstrated a mastery of conducting novel radioligand therapies and molecular imaging clinical trials.
TheranosticTrials was developed through the collaboration of 2 key opinion leaders in the field of Radiopharmaceuticals. Drs. Luke Nordquist and Oliver Sartor saw the need for a such a web-based tool to provide patient education & ultimately improve access to the rapidly expanding field of radiopharmaceutical clinical trials. Patients globally are seeking access to these highly sought-after clinical trials which are providing new hope.
RADIOLIGAND THERAPY (RLT) is a highly effective approach to very accurately locating cancer cells and effectively killing those same cells by delivery various radioisotopes to a specific target that is located on a type of cancer. Some of the Radioisotopes are diagnostic for locating cancers & some therapeutic to treat the cancers.
There are several Components to a RLT that are simply demonstrated in the truck diagram including:

Radiation is naturally occurring and unavoidable in our day-to-day living
