From Jerusalem to Seoul: opening the door to Korea for ®
U*i Sofer, CEO of Alpha Tau Medical, and Prof. Hee Cheol Kim, MD, PhD, Executive Vice President of Samsung Medical Center and General Director of Samsung Comprehensive Cancer Center, announced today that they have signed an MOU to explore a clinical trial of Alpha DaRT for patients in Korea.
Pancreatic cancer is now Korea's fourth leading cause of cancer death, with only about one in five patients undergoing surgery, leaving most pancreatic cancer patients with too few options.
A trial at SMC, one of the preeminent cancer centers worldwide, would be Alpha DaRT's first in Korea and would expand the reach of our global pancreatic cancer program. It will hopefully be a great opportunity for Alpha Tau, and a step towards new hope for Korean cancer patients.
