One hundred and thirty-six patients with bone cancer pain were treated with 153Sm-EDTMP (ethylenediamine-tetramethylene phosphonic acid). Pain free was noted in 49 cases (36%, 49/136) and pain relief in 77 cases (56.6%, 77/136), the total relief rate being 92.6% (126/136). The data from 76 patients with moderate and severe pain showed there were no significant relationships between the patients' age, the dose of 153Sm-EDTMP and the analgesic effects (P > 0.05). The pain relief observed in the patients with chest pain (ribs metastases) was earlier than that in other groups (P < 0.05). We didn't find any clinical side-effects, so 153Sm-EDTMP is safe for use.
