Revolutionizing Cancer
Treatment

Hyperthermia therapy, an FDA-approved safe lung cancer treatment, is a potent addition or alternative to radiation therapy, chemotherapy, or immunotherapy. This lung cancer treatment option utilizes HEATT® to weaken and destroy tumors, showing the ability to significantly improve treatment outcomes across various types of cancer.

Hyperthermia therapy is an advanced lung cancer treatment that can enhance the effectiveness of chemotherapy or radiation therapy by increasing the likelihood of a patient’s response, meaning it improves the chances of these treatments’ effectiveness in killing cancer cells

What is HEATT®?

Verthermia® provides Hyperthermic Extracorporeal Applied Tumor Therapy (HEATT®), a patented, whole-body hyperthermia cancer treatment to extend and enhance daily living for cancer patients.

Why 42° Celsius?

42° C has been scientifically identified as an optimal temperature because it can damage cancer cells while providing minimal harm to healthy cells.

How Does HEATT®
Treatment Work?

The body’s immune system is boosted by hyperthermia to combat malignancies. T-cell cancer better combats cancerous cells thanks to the heat generated by the treatment. Due to irreversible DNA damage, hyperthermia also inhibits cancer cells from rebuilding themselves.

This natural breast cancer treatment creates a fever-like environment around and within the tumor, which activates the body’s immune system to attack. In addition to chemotherapy and radiation therapy, this gives the body another line of protection.

How Does HEATT® Work in Killing Cancer Cells?

HEATT® works by raising the temperature of the patient’s blood outside the body and then returning it, now heated, through a closed-loop system. This elevated temperature directly targets lung cancer cells, causing them to die or become more susceptible to other treatments like chemotherapy or radiation.
