Introduction: 153 Sm-EDTMP is a radioactive agent used for both the diagnosis and treatment of some diseases. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of 153 Sm-EDTMP for the treatment of chronic pain due to bone metastasis in prostate cancer. Material and methods: Prospective study including seven patients suffering chronic pain due to bone metastasis in prostate cancer to whom intravenous 153 Sm-EDTMP for pain control was administered. The efficacy of this agent was evaluated through Visual Analog Scale (VAS) changes, time needed for therapeutic response and variations in the daily analgesic demands. Results: 2 in 7 patients (28.5%) obtained full pain relief, 4 in 7 (37.2%) partial relief (VAS ≥1 and ≤3) and 1 in 7 (14.3%) did no...
