DEN220077 is an FDA 510(k) submission (not cleared) for the ProSense™ System. Classified as Cryoablation Device For Local Treatment Of Low-risk Breast Cancer (product code QXW), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Icecure Medical (Caesarea, IL). The FDA issued a Not Cleared (DENG) decision on October 3, 2025 after a review of 1080 days.

This device falls under the General & Plastic Surgery FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 878.4355 - the FDA general and plastic surgery device framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway requires demonstration of substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device - a standard the FDA determined was not met in this submission.

Device pattern: Regulatory edge-case submission. High predicate equivalence gap. With 1080 days under review and no clearance granted, this submission reflects a case where the FDA could not confirm sufficient predicate equivalence - often indicating either a novel device category or unresolved safety and performance questions.
