IA's BiologicsMD Receives Japanese Patent for Bone Repair Product
Innovate Arkansas client firm BiologicsMD of Fayetteville announced today that it has received a Japanese patent (at right) for its PTH-CBD bone repair product.
The Japanese patent complements its U.S. patent for the product, issued last year. Biologics is a portfolio company of VIC Technology Venture Development.
Here's the official presser, and here's a sample:
BiologicsMD is developing PTH-CBD™ to accelerate the rate of bone fracture repairs and reduce the number of fracture non-unions. Despite current surgical techniques and advanced surgical hardware, further clinical advances are needed to reduce the number of incomplete unions, provide faster fracture healing, and greatly reduce the need for secondary interventions and additional surgeries.
As always, keep up the good work, guys.
