Pivotal U.S. Data Show Sustained Oncologic Control and Safety Profile at 24 months
Results Presented at AUA 2026
LATHAM, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--AngioDynamics, Inc. (NASDAQ: ANGO), a medical technology company focused on restoring healthy blood flow in the body's vascular system, expanding cancer treatment options and improving patient quality of life, today announced two-year results from the PRESERVE pivotal trial (NCT04972097) demonstrating durable oncologic control and a sustained safety profile for the NanoKnife System in the focal ablation of intermediate-risk prostate cancer. The data will be discussed by Izak Faiena, M.D., of Columbia University at the 2026 American Urological Association (AUA) Annual Meeting on Sunday, May 17 in Washington, D.C.
The PRESERVE trial is a prospective, single-arm pivotal IDE study evaluating focal irreversible electroporation (IRE) using the NanoKnife System in 121 patients with Gleason Grade Group 2–3 intermediate-risk prostate cancer, conducted across 17 U.S. clinical centers in collaboration with the Society of Urologic Oncology Clinical Trials Consortium (SUO-CTC). Primary 12-month results, published inEuropean Urologyin July 2025, demonstrated an 80% freedom-from-treatment-failure rate among protocol-biopsied patients.1
At 24 months, the updated findings confirm durability of outcomes:
The 24-month PRESERVE data complement an international long-term evidence base for focal IRE, including median five-year outcomes from a 2023 international multi-institutional cohort demonstrating sustained oncologic control and preservation of functional outcomes.2

“Two years of prospective pivotal data in the United States, combined with more than five years of international follow-up evidence, paints a coherent and compelling picture of sustained efficacy,” said Juan Carlos Serna, AngioDynamics Senior Vice President of Scientific and Clinical Affairs. “These results reinforce that the NanoKnife System is a clinically meaningful focal therapy option that physicians across care settings are actively incorporating into practice.”
With a growing body of prospective U.S. pivotal data and long-term international evidence supporting the safety and efficacy of focal IRE, the NanoKnife System continues to gain traction as a meaningful treatment option for men with intermediate-risk prostate cancer who seek durable oncologic control while preserving quality of life. AngioDynamics is advancing the NanoKnife IRE System evidence base and the reimbursement infrastructure needed to bring this option to more patients and physicians across care settings.

About the NanoKnife System
The NanoKnife System utilizes Irreversible Electroporation (IRE) technology to effectively destroy targeted cells without the use of thermal energy by delivering high-voltage pulses, creating permanent nanopores within the cell membrane. This stimulus induces an apoptotic-like cellular death in the targeted tissue, resulting in a complete ablation of the targeted tissue.3Visitnanoknife.comfor full product information.
United States: The NanoKnife System with six outputs is indicated for surgical ablation of soft tissue, including prostate tissue.
Canada: The NanoKnife System is a medical device for cell membrane electroporation. Electroporation is a phenomenon that occurs in cell membranes as cells are exposed to an electrical field of sufficiently high intensity. The electric field acts as a physical stimulus, bringing about alterations in cell membranes that result in increased permeability.
European Union: The NanoKnife System is indicated for the ablation of prostate tissue in patients with intermediate risk prostate cancer.
