Regentis Biomaterials Launches Solvent-Free GelrinC Manufacturing Process
Regentis Biomaterials has developed a new manufacturing process for its lead product, GelrinC, an off-the-shelf hydrogel synchronized erosion and resorbable implant for the treatment of painful injuries to focal articular knee cartilage. The proprietary new process does not require the use of organic solvents which are not only flammable and toxic but also take up a major portion of the manufacturing process volume. This new solvent-free process more than quadruples production yield per batch. Regentis has filed patents worldwide for its solvent-free GelrinC manufacturing process that have already been granted in India, China and Israel, and is pending in the US. GelrinC has CE Mark approval in the European Union and Regentis is conducting a pivotal FDA study which has completed over 50% enrollment.
