Alpha Tau Medical (NASDAQ: DRTS, DRTSW) announced FDA approval of an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) for a multi-center study using Alpha DaRT® to treat recurrent cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma (cSCC) in immunocompromised patients. The study, led by Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University, will enroll up to 28 U.S. patients across 8 institutions.
The trial's primary efficacy objective is the objective response rate (ORR), with secondary objectives including progression-free survival, overall survival, and local control. Immunocompromised patients face a significantly higher risk of cSCC, with organ transplant recipients having a 65-100 fold greater incidence compared to the general population.
This study addresses clinician requests to treat immunocompromised patients, who are ineligible for Alpha Tau's ongoing ReSTART pivotal trial for recurrent cSCC. The company aims to provide a new potential treatment alternative for this vulnerable population.
