Regentis Biomaterials is taking a regenerative approach with GelrinC, a cell-free, off-the-shelf hydrogel designed to temporarily fill cartilage defects while guiding the healthy surrounding tissue to regenerate new, natural and highest hyalin quality cartilage. Recent long-term MRI and peer-reviewed clinical data have provided additional evidence supporting the quality and durability of knee cartilage regenerated with GelrinC, as the company advances its U.S. pivotal trial and commercialization efforts in Europe.…
