Short-lived RI supply platform program (since 2016) This program will provide stable supply of research radioisotopes throughout the year and technical support for safe handling. 1. Supply of short life isotopes that cannot be purchased from the commercial base. 2. A prompt and stable supply by the world's highest level of accelerator facility association. 3. Support for the promotion of basic research in a wide range of fields: ex. Development of probes for next generation PET, development of next generation therapeutic drugs, metabolic research of biological trace elements, etc. https://www.rcnp.osaka-u.ac.jp/~ripf/index.html • Research Center for Nuclear Physics[RCNP], Osaka 7Be, 11C, 18F, 15O, 24Na, 28Mg, 38,39Cl, University (Osaka) 38,42,43 43,46,47 44 48 55 • Nishina Center for Accelerator-Based Science, Riken (Tokyo) K, Sc, Ti, V, Fe, • Cyclotron and Radioisotope Center [CYRIC], Tohoku 56,57,58Co, 57Ni, 61,64,67Cu, 74As, University (Sendai) 83,84,86 86,87,90 • Research Center for ELectron PHoton Science (ELPH), Rb, Y, Tohoku University (Sendai) 88,89,89m,95Zr,….207Bi, 207,210,211At, • TIARA, Takasaki QST (Takasaki) 213 238 255 • Quantum Medical Science Directorate,NIRS, QST (Chiba) Fr, Np, Md Middle sized cyclotron; MP-30 at Fukushima Medical University MP-30 Cyclotron Beam transport Target station PIG ion source 6 Multi-cusp ion source MP-30 Estimated production yield of 211At Energy 15-30 MeV (Valuable) Proton at TTY = 30.7 MBq/μAh Current 100 µA 2500 Energy 8-15 MeV (Valuable) 10uA Deuteron Current 50 µA 2000 Energy 32 MeV 15uA 1500 Alpha Current 30 µA 20uA ] Ion Source External(PIG:α+Multi-cups:P,D) 1000 Extraction Port 1 MBq [ 500 Max.

Owing to the advent of 223Ra with its efficacy to prolong the overall survival of metastatic HRPC patients, Japanese physician change their opinion and they are interested in using α emitters. Due to the availability of target materials and the usability of cyclotron that can produce α emitters, 211At would be the most appropriate candidate to manufacture. There exist 5 facilities to produce 211At by direct reaction There also exist one facility to produce 211Rn that will be a generator to produce 211At. Due to the short half-life of 211At, At-related chemistry and preclinical studies have been restricted to the 211At production site or its vicinity. However, since the platform has been launched, the availability and sustainable supply of 211At have improved than ever, and as a result, many researchers have had more opportunities to come into contact with 211At. 8 Thank you for your kind attention! 9.
