Regenerative Medicine
to reverse bone-loss
Bone targeting platform to treat rare bone-diseases. Stepping Stones to The Future of Bone Regeneration.
SEM osteoblasts, magnification 400X
Mesentech developed a novel that can deliver medicines selectively to the bone. Our first drug candidate, MES1007, reverses bone loss.
Mesentech's bone anabolic drug conjugates will be incrementally developed as a treatment for renal osteodystrophy, osteogenesis imperfecta, and Duchenne associated osteoporosis. A topical formulation is being developed as a bone graft material to speed osseointegration in orthopedic and oral-maxillofacial indications while avoiding the cost and morbidity associated with harvesting self-donor material for autografts.
