Perspective Therapeutics, Inc. is a medical technology and radiopharmaceutical company, which engages in the provision of treatment applications for cancers. The company is headquartered in Seattle, Washington and currently employs 163 full-time employees. The company went IPO on 2002-05-31. The firm has proprietary technology that utilizes the alpha-emitting isotope 212Pb to deliver powerful radiation specifically to cancer cells via specialized targeting moieties. The company is also developing imaging diagnostics that incorporate the same targeting moieties, which provide the opportunity to personalize treatment and optimize patient outcomes. This theranostic approach enables the ability to see the specific tumor and then treat it to potentially improve efficacy and minimize toxicity. The firm's melanoma (VMT01) and neuroendocrine tumor (VMT-a-NET) programs have entered Phase I/IIa imaging and therapy trials for the treatment of metastatic melanoma and neuroendocrine tumors at several academic institutions. The company has also developed a 212Pb generator to secure key isotopes for clinical trial and commercial operations.
