MTL-005

• Description :

  MTL-005 is a boron-containing radiosensitizer used in Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) . MTL-005 enriches the boron-10 isotope in tumor tissues, causing nuclear fission under thermal neutron irradiation, releasing high linear energy transfer (LET) α particles and lithium ions, which selectively destroy tumor cells while minimizing damage to surrounding normal tissues. MTL-005 significantly controlls the tumor progression in the SCCVII squamous cell carcinoma mouse model and prolonged the survival of the mice. MTL-005 can be used to study solid tumors such as head and neck cancer.
