NASHUA, N.H., Feb. 27, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- iCAD, Inc. (NASDAQ: ICAD), a global medical technology leader providing innovative cancer detection and therapy solutions, today reported its financial and operating results for the quarter and full year ended December 31, 2019.

Recent Highlights:

  • Fourth quarter 2019 total revenue of approximately $9.4 million, an increase of approximately 35% over fourth quarter 2018.
  • Fourth quarter 2019 revenue in the Cancer Detection segment of approximately $6.9 million, a 39% increase over the fourth quarter of 2018.
  • Fourth quarter 2019 detection product revenue of $5.4 million an increase of 59% over the fourth quarter of 2018, driven by a $1.8 million contract with a world-renowned healthcare institution, the largest order in Company history.
  • The first metastatic brain tumor was treated in the U.S. using the Xoft® Axxent® System.

“We are pleased with the overall performance of our business in 2019,” said Michael Klein, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of iCAD, Inc. “In particular our results continue to be especially strong in Detection, as ProFound™ AI further penetrates the market. Our customers report life-threatening cancers being identified earlier and faster with this solution that is changing the landscape of breast cancer detection.”

“We have now completed one full year of the U.S. commercial launch of ProFound™ AI, following the December 2018 FDA approval,” continued Mr. Klein. “Our Detection revenue grew 39% in the fourth quarter of 2019, as compared to the same period of 2018, driven by a $1.8 million contract with a single hospital system in the U.S. Of the 39% growth in the Detection business, software license sales grew an impressive 59% year-over-year. As we enter our second year with ProFound AI, in the commercial marketplace we are confident that our innovation and competitive edge will remain robust and our differentiation will continue to expand.”

“In our Cancer Therapy segment, we are developing multiple new IORT applications targeting large market opportunities, such as brain, prostate and rectal cancer therapeutic indications” continued Mr. Klein.

“We were excited to recently announce that the first metastatic brain tumor was treated in the U.S. using the Xoft® Axxent® System as part of a clinical trial utilizing IORT in patients with large metastases treated with neurological resection. The strong interest in this new application was driven by clinical results reported in the September 2019 issue of World Neurosurgery. In a matched pair study, 30 patients were treated for recurrent GBM with either a single fraction of radiation immediately following surgical resection, without chemotherapy or temozolomide following surgery, or routine postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy +/- concomitant or sequential EBRT. Median overall survival in the IORT group was 24 months versus 21 months for the comparison group. As of September 2019, nine patients were still alive from the IORT group, whereas none of the patients in the comparison group survived.”

“We continue to grow our business from a position of financial strength. We ended the year with $15.3 million in cash and cash equivalents, as compared to $12.2 million at the end of 2018. Looking ahead, we are well-positioned to drive long-term growth and generate significant shareholder value,” concluded Mr. Klein.
