Media and Market Momentum I meet a lot of Silicon Valley companies, but rarely do I come across a story as inspiring as this one. The fight against cancer just got a shot in the arm. It’s really quite the revolution.
IsoFlow: A New Weapon Against Cancer “ The IsoFlow catheter facilitates the use of regional infusion therapies, especially in cases of challenging arterial anatomy where it helps achieve these promises of targeted delivery. IsoFlow is a valuable addition to our treatment arsenal.” Dr. Michael Dake Stanford University School of Medicine
Vascular Designs CEO and Founder Robert Goldman pre more
Vascular Designs CEO and Founder Robert Goldman presented at the Investment in Innovation Medical Device Summit, held October 19-21 in San Francisco.
At the conference, Goldman discussed his inspiration for founding the company, the loss of his sister Amy Cohen to cancer, and the arduous experience of inventing the IsoFlow infusion catheter and securing FDA marketing clearance for the device. Goldman addressed the possible applications of the catheter, which include late-stage and pre-surgery cancer treatment, stroke intervention, and the treatment of other terminal diseases. He reported that the market opportunity for IsoFlow is greater than $1 billion.
Goldman was happy to share that Froedtert & Medical College of Wisconsin has become the first organization to use the catheter, which resulted in a successful cancer treatment procedure. The company was recently named a 2009 Healthcare Innovation Award for Oncology winner by analyst firm Frost & Sullivan. less
