Lexidronam pentasodium

Lexidronam Pentasodium is the pentasodium salt form of lexidronam (ethylenediaminetetramethylenephosphonic acid; EDTMP), a phosphonate analog of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), with chelating activity. Lexidronam binds to and associates with hydroxyapatite crystals concentrated in areas of bone turnover. It has been used as a radiopharmaceutical in complexes with radioactive metals to selectively deliver cytotoxic radiation to osteoblastic bone metastases. NCI Thesaurus (NCIt)
