The development of resistance to endocrine therapy and the tumor progression in patients with prostate cancer are associated with an unfavourable prognosis. The article presents a review of clinical trials of efficacy and safety, as well as the experience in using radioisotope radium-223 chloride in clinical practice in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer with bone metastases without visceral metastases. It was shown that radium-223 chloride therapy in this category of patients leads to an increase in overall survival and time to the development of bone complications, and is characterized by good tolerability.
