MELBOURNE, Australia Although Australia was one of the first movers in the regenerative medicine space, until now a cohesive plan for investing in regenerative medicine was holding the sector back.
Melbourne, Australia-based regenerative medicine company Avita Medical Ltd. has received good news from the FDA. The company, which also has a presence in Valencia, Calif., said the agency gave its thumbs up to an investigational device exemption application for a pivotal trial (NCT04091672) evaluating the safety and effectiveness of the Recell autologous cell harvesting device in combination with meshed autografting for the treatment of acute full-thickness skin defects, such as degloving, crush wounds, abrasions, lacerations and surgical wounds.
PERTH, Australia – Stem cell therapy has failed to deliver on its promises, according to Exopharm Ltd. founder and CEO Ian Dixon, who said he believes that exosomes, or the extracellular vesicles released by stem cells, could be a disrupter in the regenerative medicine space.
According to a new report from the Alliance for Regenerative Medicine, there are a whopping 932 regenerative medicine companies worldwide that are in the process of developing 440 gene therapies, 587 cell therapies and 125 tissue engineering/biomaterials products.
