IceCure Highlights Two New Peer-Reviewed Publications Supporting Cryoablation in Breast Cancer Treatment De-Escalation

New review by leading U.S. experts highlights ProSense® FDA marketing authorization, updated American Society of Breast Surgeons guidelines, and encouraging outcomes from the five-year ICE3 clinical trial while a second publication extends cryoablation's clinical role to axillary lymph node metastases

CAESAREA, Israel, Aug. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- IceCure Medical Ltd. (NASDAQ: ICCM) ("IceCure," "IceCure Medical" or the "Company"), developer of minimally invasive cryoablation technology that destroys tumors by freezing as an option to surgical tumor removal, today highlighted two recent peer-reviewed publications by leading U.S. experts that reinforce the growing clinical role of cryoablation in breast cancer treatment de-escalation. A new review cites ProSense®'s U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") marketing authorization, its inclusion in updated American Society of Breast Surgeons ("ASBrS") guidelines and encouraging outcomes from the five-year ICE3 clinical study (3.1% IBTR rate), while a second publication extends the clinical discussion of cryoablation to axillary lymph node metastases for both curative and palliative care.

The first article, a review titled "Cryoablation within the Evolving Paradigm of Multidisciplinary Breast Cancer Treatment De-Escalation" (Yao, Ward & Dibble, Clinical Breast Cancer), examines the clinical evidence, procedural considerations, and place of breast cryoablation within the broader shift towards de-escalation of care – providing less burdensome and minimally intensive treatment approaches with similar safety and effectiveness outcomes to traditional surgical options. The review highlights ProSense®'s authorized use in selected early-stage, low-risk breast cancers in women aged 70 and older, and ongoing studies including IceCure's ChoICE post-marketing trial.

The second article, "Cryoablation of Axillary Lymph Node Metastases for the Curative and Palliative Treatment of Breast Cancer" (Huang et al., Journal of Breast Imaging), provides practical guidance on cryoablation of axillary lymph node metastases in patients who are poor surgical candidates or decline surgery. The authors note that cryoablation can be performed safely with high technical success and low complication rates, and for both curative and palliative care, expanding the clinical discussion of cryoablation beyond the primary tumor to regional nodal disease.

"These peer-reviewed publications by leading clinicians reflect the medical community's growing recognition of cryoablation as a meaningful option within breast cancer treatment de-escalation strategies," said Eyal Shamir, Chief Executive Officer of IceCure. "We believe the expanding body of peer-reviewed literature and clinical evidence will significantly support our commercialization efforts and the broader adoption of ProSense® worldwide."
