Who is Pyrexar Medical?

 

 

Pyrexar Medical was formed to take on the fight against cancer. We purchased the Hyperthermia product line from BSD Medical in April 2015. Our plan is to support the existing BSD-500 and BSD-2000 customers, continue to make product improvements, support the growth of Thermal Oncology and spread the word about this amazing cancer therapy.


Clinical Study Reveals Increased Longevity

The Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) just published a 10 year patient follow-up to a phase III clinical study on a Soft Tissue Sarcoma Study. In addition to higher CR, the addition of hyperthermia increased the median long-term survival rate from 6.2 to 15.4 years;

Heat Matters

According to the standards set by the Society of Thermal Medicine (STM); European Society for Hyperthermic Oncology (ESHO) and the Asian Society of Hyperthermic Oncology (ASHO); the benefits of hyperthermia are fully realized when the tumor temperature reaches 39-43 degrees Celsius. Heat is known to kill cancer cells, shrink tumor size, increase radiosensitivity, inhibit DNA repair, oxygenate hypoxic tumors, produce heat shock proteins and increase disease free survival.;

Benefits of Hyperthermia in Cancer Treatment

Shrinks Tumors

In the delicate micro-environment of a cancer cell, heat can lead to direct cell death, shrinking tumors size for easier surgical resection.

Low Toxicity

Very low to no toxicity is often reported when administering hyperthermia. There is no known toxicity build-up from multiple treatments.

Survival Benefit

A phase III clinical study shows an increased survival benefit when hyperthermia was added to chemotherapy.

Increase Blood Flow

Increased blood flow and perfusion at the tumor site promotes oxygenation, increasing radiosensitivity.

Inhibits DNA Repai

Hyperthermia in combination with Radiotherapy will inhibit the DNA repair cycle of radiation damaged cancer cells.

Heat Shock Proteins

Tumor cells express heat shock proteins when exposed to hyperthermic temperatures allowing tumor specific antigens to reach the immune system.
