Partnership and Exclusive Worldwide Licensing Agreement With a World-Class International Leader in Regenerative Medicine
Since 2017, BIOHEAL THERAPEUTICS has partnered with the Wake Forest Institute for Regenerative Medicine (WFIRM), a world-class, innovative research and development institute. WFIRM was established in 2004 by Anthony Atala, M.D., and his research team as the first regenerative medicine institute with primary-appointed, multi-disciplinary faculty under one roof.
WFIRM is a leader in translating scientific discovery into clinical therapies. Physicians and scientists at WFIRM were the first in the world to engineer laboratory-grown organs that were successfully implanted into humans. Today, this interdisciplinary team is working to engineer more than 40 different replacement tissues and organs and to develop healing cell therapies - all with the goal to cure, rather than merely treat, disease.
Globally Advancing Wound Care & Severe Burn Platform Technologies
BIOHEAL THERAPEUTICS signed an exclusive worldwide license agreement with WFIRM to develop, manufacture and distribute their mammalian derived amnion amniotic membrane technology portfolio. XCell Biologix has 12 patents issued or pending globally for its Solubilized Amnion Membrane (SAM) product portfolio in the US, Canada, Europe, Australia, Japan and South Korea. The technology was initially funded by a $1,240,000 grant from the U.S. Department of Defense to WFIRM to develop a technology to treat US soldiers suffering from severe burns and wounds inflicted on the battlefield. There have been 14 published research articles and numerous podium presentations at scientific meetings focused on the XCell Biologix' amnion technology or hyaluronic acid technology platforms by the inventors and their team from WFIRM.
Product Development & Manufacturing
Since 2018, BIOHEAL THERAPEUTICS has partnered with the Viscus Biologics. Founded in 2012, Viscus Biologics LLC specializes in product realization from ideation to high volume production. In 2018, the company relocated to a dedicated high-capacity manufacturing facility and received ISO 13485 certification in 2016.
