Peers on Argus 2 Down
ICCM gained 1.53% while momentum peers like CTSO and WOK showed declines (sector scanner median move -14.4%), suggesting today’s move is more stock-specific than part of a uniform sector trend.
Historical Context
| Date | Event | Sentiment | Move | Catalyst |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dec 05 | Patent allowance | Positive | +0.4% | China notice of allowance for XSense cryogen flow control patent. |
| Nov 19 | Earnings update | Positive | -3.2% | Nine‑month 2025 results and FDA marketing authorization recap. |
| Nov 18 | Regulatory approval | Positive | +2.0% | Swissmedic approval for ProSense® across multiple cancer indications. |
| Nov 14 | Listing compliance | Negative | -0.6% | Nasdaq minimum bid price deficiency notice and cure timeline. |
| Nov 12 | Earnings date | Neutral | +2.5% | Announcement of upcoming Q3 2025 results call and webcast. |
Regulatory and IP wins have generally produced modest positive moves, while operational/earnings updates and compliance notices have seen mixed to negative reactions.
Over the last month, ICCM reported multiple milestones: a Chinese patent allowance for its XSense cryoablation system on Dec 5, 2025, Swiss regulatory approval for ProSense® across several cancer indications on Nov 18, 2025, and nine‑month 2025 financial results with an FDA marketing authorization highlight on Nov 19, 2025. It also disclosed a Nasdaq minimum bid price notice on Nov 14, 2025. Today’s RSNA clinical data further reinforces the same cryoablation adoption story seen in recent regulatory updates.
Market Pulse Summary
This announcement highlights four independent RSNA 2025 studies, covering 263 breast cancer patients, that reinforce ProSense® cryoablation’s safety and effectiveness, especially in surgery‑ineligible, elderly populations. It extends a recent run of milestones, including Swiss approval and a China patent allowance, while the stock still trades well below its 1.66 52‑week high and faces a Nasdaq minimum bid‑price issue. Investors may watch for further adoption data, reimbursement trends, and progress on commercialization plans.

Abstracts presented include 3 studies involving 263 patients, adding to a growing body of evidence across diverse patient populations supporting broader adoption of ProSense®

The RSNA's Annual Meeting, the world's largest radiology conference with around 50,000 attendees from 160 countries, is a prestigious global platform for presenting clinical data. The acceptance of four abstracts this year, each showcasing results achieved with IceCure's technology, represents another significant international recognition of the effectiveness and growing adoption of ProSense® by the medical community for the treatment of breast cancer.
"The broad range of independent studies conducted, peer reviewed, published and presented by ProSense® users supports the widescale adoption of our cryoablation system and is highly encouraging for women who seek a non-surgical option," said Eyal Shamir, IceCure's Chief Executive Officer. "At RSNA 2025, radiologists from across the
Independent studies presenting data on ProSense® included the following:
1. Abstract Title: Ultrasound-guided Cryoablation for Breast Cancer in Non-Surgical Patients
Key Finding: PCA was successful in
Researchers (
Purpose: To present a single-center experience on the use of percutaneous cryoablation ("PCA") for the local control of breast cancer ("BC") in patients who elect not to undergo a surgery or were considered inoperable
Results: 73 women who were considered inoperable were treated under local anesthesia with PCA. 69 of them (median age 87 years, range 48-98 years) had at least one imaging examination performed 6 months after the procedure. Median tumor size was 23 mm, range 6-46 mm. The mean follow-up was 19.8 months (range 6-45 months). 60 patients were luminal BC, 3 were Her2 (+) and 8 were triple negative tumors. All luminal cancers received endocrine therapy. Complete tumoral necrosis was achieved in 56 tumors (
Conclusions: Percutaneous cryoablation is a minimally invasive procedure, without significant complications. It could be a safe alternative to surgery for the management of early-stage breast cancer.
Key Finding: Statistically significant difference between the Cryoablation-with-HT and the HT-only groups, expressing the added value of Cryoablation
Researchers (
Purpose: To evaluate the most effective non-surgical treatment for breast cancer in surgery-ineligible patients, comparing ultrasound-guided Cryoablation combined with hormonal therapy (HT) versus Cryoablation alone and hormonal therapy alone
Results: 111 patients (mean age 81.2 years, ±11.3) not-suitable for surgery due to comorbidities and/or advanced age were enrolled, with a total of 125 biopsy-confirmed malignant breast lesions. Tumor size reduction was significantly different between the groups (P=0.0005), with greatest reduction in the Cryoablation-with-HT group (
Conclusions: Cryoablation with hormonal-therapy significantly reduces tumor size and residual disease more effectively than therapy alone, making it a promising option for patients not-eligible for surgery.
3. Abstract Title: Correlation of Lesion Conspicuity in Contrast-Enhanced Mammography (CEM) with Tru-Cut Scar Biopsy Results in the Assessment of Ultrasound-Guided Cryoablation Outcome
Key Finding: Significant association between biopsy and lesion conspicuity on CEM
Researchers (
Purpose: To evaluate the role of lesion conspicuity at 12-month CEM follow-up as a predictor of cryoablation outcome
Results: 79 patients (mean age 85.7 years old, ±6.0) with biopsy-proven malignant breast lesions ≤35 mm, underwent ultrasound-guided cryoablation. Among the 79 patients, 48 (
Conclusions: Lower lesion conspicuity on CEM indicates higher cryoablation success, useful for follow-up.
4. Abstract Title: Imaging Findings After Cryoablation of Breast Cancer: Tips and Tricks to Know That the Procedure was Successful Without Biopsy
Researchers (
Teaching Points: Described the findings on mammography, ultrasound, and CEM after PCA of breast BC, as well as the signs of residual tumor or recurrence.
