Xoft is developing leading-edge new technologies for the practice of radiation oncology through Electronic Brachytherapy, which utilizes proprietary miniaturized x-ray tube technology. The Axxent Electronic Brachytherapy System, Xoft's first treatment system, is designed for use in Accelerated Partial Breast Irradiation (APBI) for the treatment of early-stage breast cancer. This solution provides a therapeutic dose of intracavitary radiation directly to the region at risk without the complex handling and resource logistics necessary when performing brachytherapy using radioactive isotopes.«Less

| Description: | The Axxent Electronic Brachytherapy System® utilizes a miniaturized high dose rate X-ray source to apply radiation directly to the cancerous tumor bed. Unlike traditional high dose rate brachytherapy technologies, this ground-breaking form of brachytherapy does not require radioactive isotopes, heavy shielding, or major capital equipment. * The Axxent system mimics 192Ir in the treatment area, but greatly reduces the amount of radiation delivered to the rest of the body, providing greater sparing of healthy organs and tissue. 1,2 * Delivers the therapeutic dose directly to the tumor bed from within the lumpectomy cavity. * Axxent FlexiShield drape provides effective shielding, allowing hospital staff to remain in the room for greater patient comfort and well-being. * As a complete system of care, the Axxent System allows for easy incorporation of future applications. * Source voltage and current can be modulated, permitting Intensity Modulated Brachytherapy (Xoft IMBT™) in future applications. |
