• Advances Towards FDA Approval

  This milestone is a critical step towards potential FDA pre-market approval (PMA) for Alpha DaRT in cSCC, an indication for which the therapy has Breakthrough Device Designation. The company initiated the modular PMA application in January 2026.

This announcement signifies a major de-risking event for Alpha Tau Medical, as completing enrollment in a pivotal U.S. study is a crucial prerequisite for FDA pre-market approval (PMA). The Alpha DaRT therapy has already received Breakthrough Device Designation for this indication, and the company has initiated the modular PMA application process. This milestone brings Alpha Tau significantly closer to potential commercialization of its Alpha DaRT technology for recurrent cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, addressing a significant unmet medical need. Investors should monitor the progress of the PMA submission and subsequent data readouts.
