Elekta Announces Use of Its 1.5T Elekta Unity MR-Linac Elekta announced that use of its 1.5T Elekta Unity MR-Linac can enable doctors to reduce the radiation dose to key structures responsible for erection among men being treated for prostate cancer. The preliminary results of the ERECT (EREctile Function Preservation for Prostate Cancer Radiation Therapy) trial were presented by University Medical Center Utrecht (UMC Utrecht, the Netherlands) clinicians at the 2025 European Society for Radiotherapy and Oncology (ESTRO) annual congress, May 2-6 in Vienna, Austria. The ERECT Trial is a sub-study of MOMENTUM, the MR-Linac Consortium's platform registry. It showed reduced incidence of erectile dysfunction (ED) and preserved erectile function up to 18 months using MR-guided radiotherapy (MRgRT) compared to conventional radiotherapy in patients with localized prostate cancer. In the study, researchers used Elekta Unity MR- Linac to treat 70 intermediate risk prostate cancer patients with a radiation dose of 36.25 Gy over five fractions. According to UMC Utrecht radiation oncologist and trial principal investor, Jochem van der Voort van Zyp, MD, PhD, Unity's pristine MR image quality not only enabled detailed visualization of the prostate, but also that of critical structures needed to achieve and maintain an erection. This anatomy includes the neurovascular bundle, internal pudendal arteries, corpora cavernosa and penile bulb. The endpoint of this preliminary analysis was the incidence of ED - as reported by patients - at six, 12- and 18-months post-treatment, compared to a control group that received the same dosage without neurovascular sparing. ED incidence was significantly lower in ERECT patients at all time points (six months: 6% vs. 21%, 12 months: 8.5% vs. 38%, 18 months: 16% vs. 36%). MRI is the gold standard for visualizing the prostate and surrounding structures in diagnostic radiology. Elekta Unity MR-Liac is the world's first and only device to combine a high-field MRI with a linear accelerator and enables clinicians to use MRI to guide radiation delivery to tumor targets and avoid surrounding structures. In addition, while treatment is ongoing, the system allows clinicians to non-invasively monitor the position of the target. If for example, if a prostate shifts due to motion of the bowels or bladder filling, the radiation treatment can be discontinued to avoid unnecessary radiation to surrounding normal tissues.

First Ever Patient Treated for Pancreatic Cancer with New Advanced Radiotherapy Motion Management Using Elekta Unity MR-Linac Elekta AB (publ) announced that UTRECHT - A milestone was reached in radiation therapy last week as the first patients completed their full course of radiation therapy treatment with Elekta (EKTA-B.ST) Unity MR-Linac using Comprehensive Motion Management (CMM) with True Tracking and automatic gating functionalities. A patient with pancreatic cancer was treated at University Medical Center (UMC) Utrecht using Unity's CMM developments, which can continuously calculate the movement of the tumor and correct for it automatically. This first ever treatment delivery using CMM went smoothly and did not increase the total treatment time per fraction. The beam wasautomatically turned on when the patient was in the exhale phase of breathing, so they were not required to hold their breath for extended periods, according to Dr. Martijn Intven, a radiation oncologist at UMC Utrecht. With automatic gating, supported by Elekta's unique True Tracking algorithms, the radiation beam is automatically turned off when the tumor moves outside of the beam, ensuring treatment is always focused on the target. For the first time ever in radiotherapy, Elekta Unity's True Tracking provides continuous tracking of the 3D position of a target anywhere in the body, non-invasively and without surrogates. In addition, CMM offers rapid compensation for sustained intrafraction drift: realigning the beam with the new position of the target without the need to re-acquire a 3D image. UMC Utrecht was Elekta's initial research partner in the development of Elekta Unity, aproject that has extended over two decades. During this time, clinicians at UMC have helped pioneer radiation treatment that responds to movement of tumors during delivery. Reported Earnings • Nov 25

Elekta AB (publ) Announces Elekta Esprit Receives FDA 510(k) Clearance Elekta AB (publ) announced that Elekta Esprit, a new Leksell Gamma Knife® radiosurgery platform, received FDA 510(k) clearance. This milestone makes the system available to clinicians and people with brain disease in the U.S., as well as opening the door to other countries where FDA approval is recognized. Leksell Gamma Knife has been designed as a gentler alternative to open surgery and conventional radiotherapy. It can target the smallest and most challenging intracranial tumors and lesions with minimal effect on healthy tissue. This vital precision safeguards motor, sensory and neurocognitive function to help protect the mind and the person. With a variety of innovations now available in a single platform, Esprit continues to offer clinicians the option of frameless or frame-based workflows with a frame that provides superior visualization. Remote accessibility and collaboration tools for the treatment team are designed to meet the needs of changing environments. Esprit provides the accuracy to treat even the most challenging targets while delivering a gentler more personalized approach to radiosurgery. Leksell Gamma Knife has over 50 years of clinical evidence and remains the gold standard of intracranial radiosurgery. The U.S. has the largest installed base of Gamma Knife systems, whose users have contributed to driving the standard of care forward. Continuous advances in its design have resulted in extremely fast automated treatment planning for clinicians, and Esprit is ideal for safely treating a broad range of indications, including multiple metastases, arteriovenous malformations, trigeminal neuralgia and vestibular schwannoma.

Elekta Unity Demonstrates Promising Quality of Life Outcomes for Pancreas and Prostate Cancers At Astro Annual Meeting Elekta announced two new reports from the MOMENTUM Study highlighting the clinical impact of Elekta Unity MR-Linac in treating pancreas and prostate cancers. The abstracts were presented at the American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) Annual Meeting, in San Antonio, Texas. These reports add to a growing body of evidence showing that enhanced precision radiotherapy using MR-guided on-line adaptation may improve outcomes in both pancreas and prostate cancers, two common treatment indications for radiotherapy. Elekta Unity is the world’s first and only MR-Linac to unite diagnostic quality high field (1.5T) MRI with a linear accelerator to deliver unprecedented visibility and precision, thus enabling personalized radiotherapy. The MOMENTUM Study is the largest prospective international registry of high field MR-guided therapy, currently enrolling patients from 15 major cancer centers in North America, Europe and Australia. In the study of pancreas tumors, which are historically treatment resistant, 80 patients treated with an ablative radiation dose using MR-guided online adaption were enrolled and surveyed using standardized quality-of-life questionnaires. Patients reported limited adverse effects and stable global health status out to three months. Importantly, 67% of patients were alive one year after the end of treatment. In the study of prostate cancers, 218 patients were enrolled and followed with standardized quality-of-life questionnaires. Approximately half of the patients were treated using both MR-guidance and on-line adaptation functionality on Elekta Unity while the remaining half were treated using only MR-guidance without on-line adaptation. As expected, investigators observed a decline in quality-of-life scores three months after the end of treatment in the cohort treated with MR-guidance alone. However, no significant decline in quality of life was observed in the cohort of prostate cancers treated using both MR-guidance and on-line adaptation. Aankondiging • Sep 19
