Clinical Laserthermia Systems announces that the last patient is treated in clinical study in the US
Lund, Sverige – Clinical Laserthermia Systems AB (publ) (“CLS” or “the Company”) today announced via their US subsidiary, CLS Americas, that all twenty patients have been successfully treated within the Phase I clinical study titled, “Targeted MRI/US Fusion Transperineal Laser Ablation of Low-to-Intermediate Risk Prostate Cancer”.
The study is being conducted by Urological Research Network, LLC, a Florida-based, not-for-profit clinical research organization. The study utilizes CLS’s TRANBERG® Thermal Therapy System in combination with the Focalyx® Fusion medical device for treatment organization, planning, image fusion, and real-time image guidance during the high-precision, focal laser ablation (FLA) treatment.
”The TRANBERG laser system provides a higher degree of precision and control over the ablation shape, size, and margin than cryotherapy or other focal therapies I’ve worked with and seen,” stated Dr. Fernando J. Bianco, principal investigator, Urological Research Network, LLC. ”Additionally, I found the TRANBERG laser system to be very easy and intuitive to operate in conjunction with the Focalyx Fusion real-time, image guidance and treatment planning system.”
“We are very happy with how the Phase I clinical study was performed in the US and the positive preliminary results. This is yet another milestone for CLS in the US market. We now hope to treat even more patients with our focal laser ablation technique with less discomfort, enabling fast recovery times, and significantly reducing the risk of unwanted side effects,” says Dan J. Mogren, CEO of Clinical Laserthermia Systems AB.
