About FluoGuide
FluoGuide’s primary focus is to maximize surgical outcomes in oncology. The Company’s lead 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, the improved precision will improve a patient’s chance of achieving a complete cure and will lower system-wide healthcare costs. The Company is has demonstrated efficacy of F001 as well as it to be well tolerated and safe in the proof-of-concept clinical study (phase I/II) in patients with high grade glioma undergoing surgery. FluoGuide has decided to explore FG001 in three other severe cancer indications, namely lung, head & neck, meningioma and low grade glioma. FluoGuide is listed on Nasdaq First North Sweden under the ticker “FLUO”.
