development and clinical trial supply of Neuradiab, an antibody used to treat the most common and deadly form of brain cancer.: "MDS Nordion has signed a three-year contract with Bradmer Pharmaceuticals for the development and clinical trial supply of Neuradiab, an antibody used to treat the most common and deadly form of brain cancer.

'This new agreement is an important step in our preparation for a planned multi-centre clinical trial for Neuradiab. We chose MDS Nordion based on their experience and standards of quality in developing and producing radiotherapeutics.'

Neuradiab was developed at Duke University Medical Center in North Carolina......"
