"Given the novelty of our product and the importance of breast cancer in public health, the FDA has included many stakeholders in the discussion of the De Novo marketing clearance for ProSense� for the treatment of early-stage, low-risk breast cancer with endocrine therapy" stated IceCure's Chief Executive Officer, Eyal Shamir.

"We appreciate the attention of many at the FDA despite the evolving situation at the agency as we work productively together towards a decision on marketing authorization," Shamir added.
Due to the public health importance of breast cancer, the FDA convened a Medical Device Advisory Committee Panel ("Advisory Panel") in November 2024 to obtain independent non-binding expert advice on scientific, technical and policy matters related to the potential granting of marketing authorization of ProSense� for treating patients with early-stage low risk breast cancer with endocrine therapy. The Advisory Panel, which included breast surgeons, interventional radiologists, breast oncologists, and representatives from the patient, consumer, and regulatory communities, voted in favor of ProSense�'s benefit-risk profile in early-stage low risk breast cancer.
