Proof of concept confirmed. ChitogenX announced yesterday that in the meniscus tear repair study, the ORTHO-R biopolymer showed residency on the tissue more than 24 hours after surgery. In addition, PRP regenerative cells were recruited and aggregated at the surgery site. PRP alone disperses quickly, but the “sticky” PRP/chitosan biopolymer matrix showed extended tissue adherence.

Meniscus tear repair study in sheep. This pre-clinical study, composed of 22 sheep, tested the subjects’ menisci with sutures alone vs. platelet rich plasma (PRP) alone vs. PRP delivered by ORTHO-R biopolymer. This study represents the Company’s second proof of concept for their ORTHO-R drug/biologic in an orthopedic indication.
