CAESAREA, Israel, Sept. 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- IceCure Medical Ltd. (Nasdaq: ICCM) ("IceCure", "IceCure Medical" or the "Company"), developer of minimally-invasive cryoablation technology that destroys tumors by freezing as an option to surgical tumor removal, today announced its participation at the European Society of Breast Imaging ("EUSOBI") Congress 2025 in Aberdeen, United Kingdom, on September 25-27, 2025.

"ProSense® represents the next step in the de-escalation of care for early-stage breast cancer," said Eyal Shamir, IceCure's Chief Executive Officer. "Prior advances in screening, early detection, and adjuvant therapies have shifted treatment from radical surgery to breast-conserving, personalized approaches. With the breast cancer indication already approved in the European Union, ProSense® offers a minimally invasive, outpatient procedure with superior cosmetic outcomes and effectiveness comparable to surgery. Interest in this shift is clear— our workshop at EUSOBI was filled to capacity, and there was strong reception to the five independent investigator studies, highlighting the growing momentum for ProSense® adoption in the treatment of early-stage breast cancer in Europe

ProSense® was featured in the following:

• Unlocking De-Escalation of Care: Cryoablation for Breast Cancer, an exclusive workshop sponsored by IceCure
  • Renowned speakers Dr. Federica Di Naro and Dr. LucÍa Graña-Lopez provided an in-depth examination of cryoablation for the destruction of breast cancer tumors. The workshop was filled to capacity.
    
    
• Investigator Initiated Study in the Main Scientific Program "Next Generation: Spotlight on Emerging Physician Scientists / Best ePoster Award"
  • Abstract Title:  Lesion Conspicuity on Contrast-Enhanced Mammography as a Predictor of Response to Cryoablation in Breast Cancer (LINK) Winner of the Young Physician-Scientist Grant
    • Presenter: Dr. Francesca Pugliese, Radiology, Breast Imaging Careggi University Hospital, Florence, Italy
    • Study's Focus: To investigate whether early changes in lesion conspicuity on contrast-enhanced mammography ("CEM") after cryoablation can predict the tumor's response to treatment in breast cancer patients; 69 patients; mean age 86 years with range of 60-94
    • Key Findings: A reduction in lesion conspicuity on early post-ablation CEM strongly correlates with favorable tumor response in breast cancer patients treated with cryoablation. This imaging feature may serve as an early, noninvasive biomarker for treatment evaluation and could help guide clinical decision-making. The agreement between CEM and biopsy results was strong, with 100% sensitivity and positive predictive value for CEM
      
      
• 2 Investigator Initiated Studies at the Focus Session Presentations: "Update in HRL and imaged guided therapy"
  • Abstract Title: Efficacy of percutaneous Cryoablation for local control of Invasive Breast Cancer: assessment of tumor response using RECIST 1.1 Criteria in comparison with hormone therapy (LINK)
    • Presenter:  Dr. Federica Di Naro, Medical Director of Breast Diagnostics, Lead Author, Dr. Sofia Baldi Giorgi, Radiology Resident, Careggi University Hospital, Florence, Italy
    • Study's Focus: To evaluate the efficacy of percutaneous cryoablation as a local treatment for invasive breast cancer in comparison to hormone therapy, with tumor response assessed through RECIST 1.1 criteria to provide a standardized measure of treatment effectiveness; 101 patients; mean age of 86 years with a range of 60-94
    • Key Findings: At 12 months, the cumulative complete response rate in the cryoablation group was 75.8%, with an overall disease control rate of 96.8%. Percutaneous cryoablation was found to be a safe, well-tolerated local treatment showing higher complete response rates than hormone therapy alone by RECIST 1.1 criteria, especially in small, Luminal A tumors. It offers a valuable option for elderly or frail patients unsuited for surgery.
      
      
  • Abstract Title: Comparing Non-Surgical Approaches in Hormone Receptor Positive Breast Cancer: Cryoablation Alone, Cryoablation Plus Hormone Therapy, and Hormone Therapy Alone (LINK)
    • Presenter Dr. Federica Di Naro, Medical Director of Breast Diagnostics, Careggi University Hospital, Florence, Italy
    • Study's Focus: To evaluate the efficacy of cryoablation in combination with hormone therapy compared to cryoablation alone and hormone therapy alone in patients with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) breast cancer; 101 patients with 113 lesions; mean age 86 years with a range of 60-94
    • Key Findings: Cryoablation, particularly when combined with hormone therapy, emerged as a promising non-surgical approach for HR+ breast cancer patients, offering enhanced local control and disease-free survival. At 12 months, the tumor-free rate based on biopsy was highest in the combination group (91.2%), followed by cryoablation alone (85.7%) and hormone therapy alone (65%).
      
      
• 2 Investigator Initiated Poster Presentations:
  • Abstract Title: Percutaneous Cryoablation for Early-Stage Breast Cancer: Initial Experience and Short-Term Outcomes (LINK)
    • Presenter: Dr. Inci Kizildag Yirgin, Department of Radiology, Oncology Institute, Istanbul University, Turkey
    • Study's Focus: To evaluate the feasibility, safety, and short-term outcomes of percutaneous cryoablation for early-stage breast cancer; 12 patients with 13 tumors; mean age 69 years with a range of 57-97
    • Key Findings: Cryoablation is a safe, effective option for early-stage breast cancer, with excellent short-term outcomes. There was no residual suspicion in 4 evaluable tumors at 6-month follow up. All patients rated their cosmetic outcomes as a 5 out of 5. There were no major complications and the mean pain score was 1.6 out of 10.
      
      
  • Abstract Title: Breaking the Ice: Percutaneous Cryoablation as a Minimally Invasive Alternative for Early-Stage Breast Cancer (LINK)
    • Presenter: Dr. Elisabet Vila Trias, Breast Radiology, Barcelona, Spain
    • Study's Focus: To describe the feasibility, safety, and preliminary clinical outcomes of ultrasound-guided percutaneous cryoablation as a treatment for low-risk early-stage breast cancer; 16 patients; mean age 82 years
    • Key Findings: Percutaneous cryoablation appears to be a feasible, safe, and favorable minimally invasive alternative to surgery in selected patients with low-risk early-stage breast cancer. Longer follow-up and larger studies are needed to confirm its oncologic effectiveness.
