Patient enrollment was expected to begin in the second half of 2026, with at least 80 patients anticipated to be enrolled in the first year of the study.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The FDA had previously granted marketing authorization in October 2025 for ProSense\u00ae to treat patients aged 70 years and older with biologically low-risk tumors \u22641.5 cm in size, provided they received adjuvant endocrine therapy. As part of this authorization, the FDA requested that IceCure conduct a post-market surveillance study to generate additional real-world data on the use of ProSense\u00ae for this indication. The study was projected to enroll and treat approximately 400 patients across 30 U.S. clinical sites over 36 months. IceCure had already received interest and engagement from leading medical institutions nationwide seeking to participate in the study.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Under the approved study design, participating sites were to treat enrolled patients while also serving as active commercial sites, providing cryoablation to patients outside the study and supporting the company\u2019s commercial expansion.
