PROCEPT BioRobotics在ASC使用水消融疗法的WATER IV前列腺癌试验中完成了三项前列腺癌手术

PROCEPT BioRobotics® Corporation (NASDAQ:PRCT) (the "Company"), a surgical robotics company dedicated to advancing patient care through transformative urology solutions, today announced that three prostate cancer procedures in the WATER IV Prostate Cancer (PCa) Trial were successfully completed in an Ambulatory Surgery Center (ASC) using Aquablation® therapy by Dr. Rahul Mehan of East Valley Urology in Scottsdale, Arizona.

WATER IV PCa is a U.S. FDA investigational device exemption (IDE) approved clinical study comparing Aquablation® therapy and radical prostatectomy for the treatment of localized prostate cancer. The study will evaluate and compare the safety and efficacy of Aquablation therapy and radical prostatectomy for men with Grade Group 1 to 3 localized prostate cancer. Aquablation therapy is an image-guided, minimally invasive surgery that aims to resect (remove) diagnosed cancer and most of the prostate using a robotically-controlled waterjet. Radical prostatectomy is a traditional surgery that removes the entire prostate along with some surrounding tissue. A surgical robot is often used to perform the radical prostatectomy surgery.
