Description
Advanced BioHealing (ABH) was founded in 2003 to develop and commercialize bioengineered tissue products. By 2005, two rounds of venture financing totaling $10.4 million had been raised to help fund product development. During this time ABH operated as a truly virtual company with two full-time employees and a collection of consultants performing various tasks.
Technology / Differentiation
Advanced BioHealing, Inc. has developed proprietary, non-toxic cell preservation techniques that may enable allogeneic keratinocyte sheets to be stored at relatively higher temperatures for prolonged periods, close to the point of care.
Status
The Company is preparing to submit a proposal to the FDA seeking approval for a clinical trial of these cryopreserved allografts in a wound healing model.
