With a market cap of several hundred million, to call DiscGenics a “Startup” isn’t exactly true. This growth stage company has their eye on becoming a blockbuster (injectable) drug company. Can a new cell line (discogenic cells) revolutionize the way that spinal disc disease is treated and regenerate a failing disc?“10 in 10” or quick-hitting version of our video podcast. Drs Jeff Brown and Jeff Cole interview the founders of DiscGenics. DiscGenics is committed to revolutionizing the way millions of patients suffering from chronic back pain will be treated through a focus on developing regenerative therapies that alleviate pain and restore function in patients with degenerative diseases of the spine. They are engineering highly specialized therapeutic progenitor cells (Discogenic Cells) that uniquely address the complex environment of the degenerated disc. DiscGenics’ first product candidate, IDCT (rebonuputemcel), is a regenerative solution; an allogeneic, injectable (non-surgical) cell therapy that utilizes proprietary Discogenic Cells to treat mild to moderate adult lumbar disc degeneration.*****Would this bring value to your medical practice?
