  An overview of the current status of the design of the compact superconducting isochronous cyclotron C400 able to deliver ion beams with a charge to mass ratio of 0.5 is given. This cyclotron is based on the design of the current PT (proton therapy) C230 cyclotron and will be used for radiotherapy with proton, helium or carbon ions. 12C6+ and 4He2+ ions will be accelerated to 400 MeV/u energy and extracted by electrostatic deflector, H2+ ions will be accelerated to the energy 260MeV and extracted by stripping. Computer modeling results on the axial injection system, magnetic system, inflector and center design are given. Results of simulations of the ion beam injection, acceleration and extraction are presented.
