GT Medical Technologies, Inc., a medical device company with a corporate purpose of improving the lives of patients with brain tumors, announced it has secured a $35 million venture loan facility, of which $15 million has been initially funded from Horizon Technology Finance Corporation, an affiliate of Monroe Capital.
The Company will use the loan proceeds to execute strategic commercial and clinical expansion plans for GammaTile®. These initiatives will drive key corporate objectives that will support access to care, help patients diagnosed with high-grade gliomas, brain metastases, and aggressive meningiomas, and expand GammaTile utilization.

“We are delighted to have Horizon’s support as we expand the reach of our innovative targeted radiation solution,” said Per Langoe. “Our partnership with Horizon Technology Finance will allow us to continue our strategic commercial and market expansion initiatives, helping bring GammaTile to more patients in need.”
GammaTile is a bioresorbable collagen tile embedded with Cesium-131 seeds, a radioactive isotope that delivers a high dose of radiation directly to the tumor cavity, helping to reduce tumor recurrence. Unlike external beam radiation therapy, GammaTile uses surgically targeted radiation therapy that minimizes excess radiation exposure and potential damage to healthy tissue.
