DiscGenics

26 August 2019 - DiscGenics today announced that the U.S. FDA has granted Fast Track designation for its investigational cell therapy, IDCT, currently being evaluated in regulator-allowed clinical trials in the U.S. and Japan for the reduction in pain and disability associated with degenerative disc disease, a major cause of chronic low back pain.

IDCT is a homologous, allogeneic, injectable cell therapy that utilizes biomedically engineered progenitor cells, known as Discogenic Cells, that have been derived from intervertebral disc tissue to offer a non-invasive, potentially regenerative solution for the treatment of mild to moderate degenerative disc disease.
