Regenerative Hydrogel Is Redefining Cartilage Repair as Regentis Advances GelrinC
Researchers are developing new regenerative approaches, including stem cells, 3D-printed scaffolds and smart biomaterials designed to help the body repair damaged tissue. Focused on smart biomaterials, Regentis is advancing a hydrogel-based approach through GelrinC, a cell-free, off-the-shelf implant designed to support the regeneration of damaged knee cartilage. With encouraging clinical results, European approval and an ongoing U.S. pivotal trial, GelrinC is advancing toward a potential new approach to cartilage repair. Regenerative medicine is increasingly focused on a simple but ambitious goal: rather than simply treating damaged tissue, can medicine help the body rebuild it? Researchers are pursuing that question through…
