About
Francis Medical is a medical device company based in Maple Grove, Minnesota, that specializes in developing innovative treatments for urological cancers, particularly prostate cancer. Founded in 2018, the company is dedicated to creating therapies that effectively target cancer cells while minimizing the severe side effects often associated with traditional treatments. The flagship product, the Vanquish Water Vapor Ablation System, utilizes thermal energy from sterile water vapor to ablate cancerous tissue in the prostate, kidney, and bladder. This technology aims to precisely destroy cancer cells while protecting surrounding healthy tissue, thereby reducing issues like urinary incontinence and erectile dysfunction. The company's mission is inspired by the founder's personal experience with prostate cancer in his family, driving a commitment to enhance patient quality of life through less invasive treatment options. Francis Medical is actively engaged in clinical research, including the VAPOR 2 study, to validate the safety and efficacy of its technology. The company has also secured significant funding, highlighting investor confidence in its potential to transform urological cancer care.
