Copenhagen, Denmark, 9 November 2020 - FluoGuide A/S (“FluoGuide” or “the Company”) is pleased to inform that the first patient today was enrolled in the clinical trial testing safety and efficacy of FG001 in guiding high grade glioma surgery.

About FluoGuide

FluoGuide’s primary focus is to maximize surgical outcomes in oncology. The Company’s first product, FG001, is designed to improve surgical precision by illuminating cancer cells intraoperatively. The improved precision enabled by FluoGuide’s products has a dual benefit – it reduces both the frequency of local recurrence post-surgery and lessens surgical sequelae. Ultimately, these improvements will improve a patient’s chance of achieving a complete cure and will lower system-wide healthcare costs. The Company is undertaking a proof-of-concept clinical trial (phase I/II) to demonstrate the effect of FG001 in patients with high grade glioma including glioblastoma.

This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under grant agreement No 954904.
