curasan AG: cooperation agreement for new product line

27-May-2010 - Germany

curasan AG has concluded a contract with Matricel GmbH, Herzogenrath, which secures exclusive rights for both companies over a jointly developed new product line. As manufacturer, Matricel GmbH will supply curasan AG, which in turn holds the marketing rights.

In contrast to the bone augmentation material Cerasorb®, which is composed of pure beta-tricalcium phosphate, the new products are composite materials; i.e. they consist of a combination of Cerasorb® with collagen. With this, alongside the current Cerasorb® granulates and moulded parts, new forms of application are being created, which simplify handling for surgeons and implantologists. Cerasorb® and collagen are completely remodelable in autogenous bone.

“The combination of our proven, synthetic Cerasorb® ceramic material together with the biological properties of collagen, results in a product line that is a component part of our announced product offensive”, states Hans Dieter Rössler, CEO of curasan AG. “At present we are collecting the data for certification by the notified body. If the approval process goes according to plan, sales can provisionally start during the first half of 2011.”
