Xoft granted clearance for new applicators of endometrial cancer treatment

Previously cleared for accelerated treatment of early stage breast cancer, the Axxent System, a proprietary technology platform designed to deliver localized, non-radioactive, isotope-free radiation treatment in minimally-shielded clinical settings, also recently received expanded FDA Clearance for use in the treatment of other cancers or conditions where radiation therapy is indicated.

Michael Klein, president and CEO of Xoft, said: “While our first indication for the treatment of breast cancer is steadily gaining momentum in the radiation oncology community, the use of brachytherapy in the treatment of endometrial cancer is already well established and growing in practice. We are proud to expand into new areas and expect that these new indications will continue to improve access to critical cancer treatment.”
