Disclosed is a radiation therapy agent which contains compound particles which, formed by molecules specifically recognizing a target compound binding to substrate particles containing titanium peroxide, generate reactive oxygen species when exposed to radiation. Further, because the disclosed radiation therapy agent contains molecules specifically recognizing a target compound, said radiation therapy agent has the property of accumulating around the target compound. The disclosed radiation therapy agent is capable of enhancing the effects of radiation therapy, and is capable of decreasing adverse effects on the living organism by efficiently attacking the target compound. |
