📋Overview
Xofigo is a medication that contains radium-223, a radioactive substance used in the management of certain cancers. It is primarily associated with prostate cancer that has spread to the bones but not to other organs. Xofigo works by targeting bone metastases, delivering radiation directly to cancer cells in the bone. This approach aims to address complications related to bone involvement in advanced cancer.
