BOZEN, Italy - Washingtoner -- OncoBeta®, a leading medical device company specialising in innovative epidermal radioisotope therapies, has announced the expansion of Rhenium-SCT® (Skin Cancer Therapy) treatment services in Italy with the Bolzano Hospital the latest to come on board. This marks a significant advancement in the availability of non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) treatment options within the country.

Rhenium skin cancer therapy is an advanced radionuclide therapy that offers a painless,*1,2 single-session,†1-3 non-invasive‡1 treatment without disfiguring scarring.1,4 Treatment with Rhenium-SCT employs a superficial application of a paste containing β-emitting particles directly over the NMSC lesion, targeting cancer cells without the need for surgery.1,4

Dr. Mohsen Farsad at Bolzano Hospital has been impressed with the Rhenium-SCT device, noting, "I have witnessed impressive outcomes with several patients treated here in Italy already, and am pleased with the design of the device technology."

"Rhenium skin cancer therapy fulfills many patients' desires for a non-surgical alternative for the treatment of NMSCs  especially in relation to difficult localisations. I am pleased to continue treating suitable patients with Rhenium-SCT", adds Dr. Farsad.

Shannon D. Brown III, CCO at OncoBeta, says, "While surgical intervention remains the standard-of-care for NMSC treatment, it often leads to suboptimal outcomes. Rhenium-SCT offers a non-surgical alternative with a simple application directly to the area needed to treat, and allows patients to resume their daily activities with minimal disruption."

According to GLOBOCAN estimates, the number of new NMSC cases in Italy is projected to rise from 29,000 to 41,700 between 2022 and 2045.5 Epidemiological data for Europe shows an annual incidence rate of NMSCs at 129.3 cases per 100,000 men and 90.8 per 100,000 women. Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) accounts for approximately 15% of all diagnosed cancers in Italy, with an annual incidence of around 100 cases per 100,000 inhabitants.6

Dr. Gerhard Dahlhoff, Medical Director at OncoBeta, emphasised, "Rhenium-SCT enables targeted, non-invasive treatment of NMSCs while preserving adjacent healthy tissue. This patient-friendly approach underscores our commitment to enhancing treatment options for those affected by NMSCs."

About the Rhenium-SCT® (Skin Cancer Therapy)
Non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) is the most common form of cancer in humans.1 The most common cause of NMSC is sun exposure, while other predisposing factors include genetic skin conditions and immunosuppressive diseases or treatments.1,4

The Rhenium-SCT is a painless,*1,2  single session,†1-3 non-invasive‡1 therapy that provides aesthetic results, even in cases otherwise considered difficult to treat.1,4,7 The Rhenium-SCT utilizes the radioisotope rhenium-188 in an epidermal application with optimal properties for the treatment of NMSCs (non-melanoma skin cancers). The Rhenium-SCT is a precise, personalized therapy that is only applied to the area needed to treat without affecting the healthy tissue.4,7 The specially designed device ensures the Rhenium-SCT compound never comes in direct contact with the patient's skin and the application is safe and simple for the applying physician. Most cases of NMSCs (basal cell carcinomas and squamous cell carcinomas) can be treated using the Rhenium-SCT in one single session. †1-4 Scar-free healing of the treated lesion area and the regeneration of healthy tissue occurs usually within a few weeks after treatment.1,7,8
