It is now the country\u2019s fourth leading cause of cancer death, and unlike most cancers in Korea, its death rate has continued to rise. In 2023, 9,748 Koreans were diagnosed with the disease, and its five-year relative survival rate of 17.0% is the lowest of any cancer in the country. Fewer than one in six patients are diagnosed while the cancer is still confined to the pancreas, and more than four in ten are diagnosed only after it has already spread to distant organs.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">SMC is ranked fifth in the world and number one in Korea in oncology. Its Pancreatobiliary Cancer Center combines a multidisciplinary team, a fast-track pathway for diagnosis and treatment, and a high-volume surgical program that has performed more than 4,000 pancreatectomies for pancreatic cancer between 2008 and 2025.(Courtesy of SMC)<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong>Uzi Sofer<\/strong>, CEO of Alpha Tau, stated: <em>\u201cSigning this MOU with Samsung Medical Center, one of the world\u2019s leading medical centers, is an important step forward in our goal to bring Alpha DaRT to cancer patients wherever they are. With Korea, our pancreatic cancer program could potentially span six countries across North America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia. I am grateful for SMC\u2019s confidence in Alpha Tau and for the opportunity to explore the potential of Alpha DaRT to benefit its patients.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong>Hee-Chul Kim<\/strong>, EVP of Samsung Medical Center, General Director of Samsung Comprehensive Cancer Center (SCCC), stated: <em>\u201cPancreatic cancer remains one of the most challenging cancers to treat, and treatment options are limited for many patients. We hope this MOU will help us explore new possibilities for these patients. We will carefully review the clinical application of Alpha DaRT and do our best to strengthen our own research capabilities.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong>About Alpha Tau Medical Ltd.<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Founded in 2016, Alpha Tau is an Israeli oncology therapeutics company focused on the research, development, and potential commercialization of the Alpha DaRT for the treatment of solid tumors. The technology was initially developed by Prof. Itzhak Kelson and Prof. Yona Keisari from Tel Aviv University.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong>About Alpha DaRT<\/strong><br \/>\n        <sup><br \/>\n          <strong>\u00ae<\/strong><br \/>\n        <\/sup>\n      <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Alpha DaRT (Diffusing Alpha-emitters Radiation Therapy) is designed to enable highly potent and conformal alpha-irradiation of solid tumors by intratumoral delivery of radium-224 impregnated sources. When the radium decays, its short-lived daughters are released from the sources and disperse while emitting high-energy alpha particles with the goal of destroying the tumor. Since the alpha-emitting atoms diffuse only a short distance, Alpha DaRT aims to primarily affect the tumor and to spare healthy tissue surrounding it.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong>About Samsung Comprehensive Cancer Center<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Samsung Comprehensive Cancer Center (SCCC) is guided by respect for life, striving for excellence in patient care, research, and education to help people lead healthier, happier lives. Since opening in 2008 as Korea\u2019s first and largest cancer center of its kind, SCCC has continued to expand its capabilities, establishing the Supportive Care Center (2014), the Proton Therapy Center (2016), the CAR T-Cell Therapy Center (2021), and the Precision Oncology Therapeutics Center (2022). In 2023, SCCC signed MOUs with Gustave Roussy and Charit\u00e9 to strengthen its global collaboration, and in 2024 it opened the Institute for Quality of Life in Cancer. In 2026, SCCC achieved ICHOM Level 1 accreditation and signed an MOU with EORTC.
