1. What is Galliad and what is it used for

This medicine is a radiopharmaceutical that is not intended for direct use in patients.

Galliad is a germanium (68Ge) / gallium (68Ga) radionuclide generator, a device used to obtain a gallium (68Ga) chloride solution.

The gallium (68Ga) chloride solution obtained is used for radiolabeling, a technique that involves labeling a substance with a radioactive compound, in this case 68Ga.

Galliad is used to label certain medicines that have been developed and approved specifically for use with the active ingredient, gallium (68Ga) chloride. These medicines act as carriers to transport the radioactive 68Ga to where it is needed. This may involve substances designed to recognize a specific type of cell in the body, such as cancer cells. The small amount of radioactivity administered can be detected outside the body using special cameras.

Refer to the package leaflet of the medicine that will be radiolabeled with gallium (68Ga) chloride. Your nuclear medicine doctor will explain what kind of examination will be performed with this product.

Administration of a medicine labeled with 68Ga involves receiving small amounts of radioactivity. Your doctor and nuclear medicine doctor have considered that the clinical benefit you will gain from the procedure with the radiopharmaceutical outweighs the risk of radiation.

Doctor consultation
