GalliaPharm is a so-called ‘radionuclide generator’, a medicine used to obtain a solution containing gallium (68Ga) chloride, a radioactive substance. GalliaPharm and the obtained gallium (68Ga) chloride solution are not intended for direct use in patients. The gallium (68Ga) chloride solution is used for radiolabelling other medicines, which are used during the body scan known as positron-emission tomography (PET). Radiolabelling is a technique that tags molecules with a radioactive substance. GalliaPharm contains germanium (68Ge) chloride / gallium (68Ga) chloride.
Therapeutic Indication
### Therapeutic indication This radionuclide generator is not intended for direct use in patients. The sterile eluate (gallium (68Ga) chloride solution) from the radionuclide generator GalliaPharm is indicated for in vitro radiolabelling of various kits for radiopharmaceutical preparation developed and approved for radiolabelling with such eluate, to be used for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging.
