Bone Therapeutics' core technology is based on its allogeneic cell therapy platform (ALLOB) which uses a unique, proprietary approach to bone regeneration, which turns undifferentiated stem cells from healthy donors into bone-forming cells. These cells can be administered via a minimally invasive procedure, avoiding the need for invasive surgery, and are produced via a proprietary, cutting-edge manufacturing process.
These conditions spur the proliferation of bone-forming cells. OSA also has been associated with fractures in which no internal repair was performed.
The product is a fully humanised monoclonal antibody that inhibits sclerostin, a protein which inhibits the activity of bone-forming cells. BPS-804 for OI has also previously been accepted into the EMA's Adaptive Pathways Programme and has been granted orphan drug status in both the US and EU.
