    As of May 2020, 5 patients from the IORT group were still alive, whereas none of the patients in the EBRT group survived. Our earlier release of January survival data included 7 patients surviving as of mid-December 2019. The survival of patients in the IORT group ranged from 16 – 59 months after the initial GBM diagnosis. As previously disclosed, the EBRT group survival ranged from 5.5 – 38.5 months after initial GBM diagnosis.

    In addition, the first metastatic brain tumor was treated with IORT in the U.S. using the Xoft System at the James Graham Brown Cancer Center at the University of Louisville. The procedure marked the start of a clinical trial on IORT for patients with large brain metastases treated with neurological resection, led by Shiao Yuo Woo, MD, FACR, radiation oncologist at the James Graham Brown Cancer Center.iii

    iCAD recently assembled a panel of experts to expand research on Xoft Brain IORT to multiple leading cancer centers worldwide. The Company is also exploring other emerging applications for the Xoft System, including the treatment of early-stage rectal tumors.

    “The Xoft System remains a leading force in the trend towards more personalized cancer treatment,” added Klein. “As cancer treatment becomes increasingly targeted and value-based, we will continue to work with the clinical community to explore and advance cancer treatment, with the goal of improving outcomes, increasing treatment accessibility and offering unparalleled value for clinicians and patients alike.”
