"During the fourth quarter of 2017, we made significant progress in advancing our 3D-bio printing business. Specifically, our development activities with various biotechnology and medical device companies continued to move forward, as planned. Of note, during the fourth quarter of 2017 and through the first quarter of 2018, we were pleased to have supplied both first and repeat orders of our rhCollagen-based BioInk to a leading, multinational biotechnology company, for the development of organs bioprinting technology. During the fourth quarter of 2017, we also initiated development of a 3D‑bioprinted orthopedic implant prototype, leveraging our rhCollagen‑based BioInk, for a leading medical device company," said Yehiel Tal, CollPlant's Chief Executive Officer.
"During the first quarter of 2018, we were honored to announce that CollPlant is part of the Regenerative Medicine Development Organization's (ReMDO) advanced biomanufacturing initiative for the development of a universal BioInk with tunable properties for 3D bioprinting of tissues and organs. This important bioink initiative includes 18 leading research and industry organizations, as well as thought leaders in the field of 3D bioprinting, specializing in printing technologies, biomaterials and application research," noted Mr. Tal.
"During the past year, CollPlant expanded its activities within the aesthetic field with the development of a next generation of dermal fillers based on our rhCollagen. We are now actively pursuing collaborations with key companies in this field," added Mr. Tal.
"Additionally, during 2017, we continued to penetrate the European market with sales of our two first products, Vergenix™STR for the treatment of tendinopathy, and Vergenix™FG, a wound filler, for treatment of acute and chronic wounds. Over time, we have received positive feedback from physicians who have treated patients with both of these products and we are working to continue to penetrate the market. We are pleased to note, that, recently, Arthrex GmbH, which distributes our Vergenix™ STR product in combination with its ACP-Tendo, presented promising treatment results based on a European case series, including patients with injuries involving the rotator cuff, Achilles tendon, Perneal tendon, Tibialis tendon and Common extensor tendon," concluded Mr. Tal.
