Adult patients who will initially benefit from this clinical breakthrough will be those treated for cancers of the pancreas, chest, head and neck, and cranial tumors. Later, abdomen and pelvis cancer patients, as well as pediatric patients will gain access to this long-awaited treatment choice.
“The P-Cure proton system is fully ready for delivery to oncology centers interested in updating their cancer treatment options,” said Dr. Michael Marash, CEO of P-Cure. “The synchrotron-based gantry-less system can fit into Linac rooms, can easily be delivered to existing buildings using nothing more than the freight elevator, can be clinically ready to treat patients in a year after contracting, will cost about half of legacy systems, and will have reduced maintenance costs. The P-Cure Solution is a fully integrated comprehensive planning and treatment modality ready to expand patient access to proton therapy, will be somewhat immune to challenging reimbursement issues, as well as deliver a more rapid ROI.”
The treatment being delivered to Hadassah patients utilizes a unique feature of the P-Cure Proton Therapy System which enables diagnostic quality imaging capable of tracking changes occurring in a patient’s body during the treatment, especially in the tumor shape and location, as well as the position of healthy tissues around the tumor site. As such, this system's versatility enables adjustment of the treatment plan in accordance with the new changing anatomy. This approach, called adaptive therapy, ensures that the treatment dose always covers the tumor without dangerous radiation to the healthy tissue and organs.
