Xofigo's launch could be a slow burn... There may be other logistical hurdles related to Medicare reimbursement and getting physicians from different specialties like oncology and radiology to work together. An alternative to chemotherapy is surely welcome, but a radiopharmaceutical may take time to get traction with doctors and patients.

It certainly wouldn’t be the first time these issues have impeded the commercial uptake of a cancer drug.
