AGuIX®, ability to enhance radiotherapy energy
AGuIX® aims to improve radiotherapy treatment
Thanks to a physical interaction with X-ray, AGuIX® locally enhances the radio-induced biological damages in tumor tissues. Gadolinium is able to strongly capture the administrated dose of radiation leading to the production of many harmful species (diffused photons, photoelectrons, Auger or Compton electrons and free radicals)
This will induce the death of the malignant cells surrounding AGuIX®
AGuIX® is active only under irradiation
