Alpha Tau treats first patient with inoperable pancreatic cancer

Alpha Tau Medical announced that a patient with advanced inoperable pancreatic cancer has been treated in a clinical trial at Hadassah Medical Center in Jerusalem, Israel. The trial is designed for a broad range of solid tumor patients who do not qualify for participation in other existing trials or who do not have other treatment options according to the treating physician. “We are dedicated to improving the lives and giving hope to cancer patients and their families, and we believe that Alpha DaRT has the potential to transform the treatment landscape for malignant tumors worldwide,” said Alpha Tau CEO Uzi Sofer. “Treating this patient with advanced inoperable pancreatic cancer, who may not have had other life-saving options at this stage, is very encouraging as we continue to execute on our unwavering mission to reach those patients with high unmet need. We are pursuing our objective of establishing Alpha DaRT as a treatment option for this terrible illness with our ongoing studies of pancreatic cancer in Israel and Montreal.”
