trūFreeze Cryotherapy – Treat Esophageal Cancer with the Power of Liquid Nitrogen

trūFreeze spray cryotherapy has a wide range of clinical applications, including the treatment of esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, Barrett’s esophagus, Refractory Barrett’s Esophagus, stricture management, radiation proctitis, gastric antral vascular ectasia (GAVE), and stent management.

For esophageal cancer patients, trūFreeze can help improve swallowing and quality of life by using liquid nitrogen for the cryogenic destruction of tissue in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. At -196°C, trūFreeze Spray Cryotherapy is the coldest cryogen available for ablating benign and malignant cells. This endoscopic spray cryotherapy treatment can ablate tissue in various shapes, sizes, and nodularities – even in the most challenging anatomical locations.

With nearly 22,000 new cases of esophageal cancer expected to be diagnosed in 2023 and a 21.7% five-year survival rate, trūFreeze can provide life-changing benefits to patients, regardless of disease stage. trūFreeze Spray Cryotherapy is effective in the treatment of esophageal cancer patients by providing the following benefits:

• Dysphagia relief and improved quality of life – Endoscopic spray cryotherapy helps to improve dysphagia and maintain patient weight without stenting or feeding tubes.
• Prevents or delays the need for stent placement – Most patients who undergo spray cryotherapy avoid future palliative esophageal stent placements or can defer placement by a least a year due to marked tumor response after recurring treatments.
• Minimal side effects – The liquid nitrogen cryotherapy spray flash freezes water in the cells to cause cell death while preserving the extracellular matrix. This treatment helps to promote a rejuvenating healing response in patients compared to radiofrequency ablation.
• Improved results with systemic therapy – When coupled with other treatments such as radiation and chemotherapy, trūFreeze is well-tolerated in patients and improves the quality of life.
