The aim of this study was to determine the maximum tolerated dose of rhenium-188 hydroxyethylidene diphosphonate (HEDP) in prostate cancer patients with osseous metastases who are suffering from bone pain, Twenty-two patients received a single injection of escalating doses of carrier-added Re-188-HEDP [1.3 GBq (35 mCi), 2.6 GBq (70 mCi), 3.3 GBq (90 mCi) and 4.4 GBq (120 mCi)]. Blood counts and biochemical parameters were measured weekly over a period of 8 weeks. Haematological toxicity (WHO grading) of grade 3 or 4 was considered unacceptable. Clinical follow-up studies including methods of pain documentation (medication, pain diary) were performed for 6 months after treatment, In the 1.3-GBq group. no haematological toxicity was observed. First haematotoxic results were noted in those patients with a dose of 2.6 GBq Re-188-HEDP. In the 3.3-GBq group, one patient showed a reversible thrombopenia of grade 1, one a reversible thrombopenia of grade 2 and three a reversible leukopenia of grade 1. In the 4.4-GBq group, thrombopenia of grades 3 and 4 was observed in one and two patients (baseline thrombocyte count
