Orthocell (ASX:OCC) said today that it landed a research collaboration deal with Johnson & Johnson (NYSE:JNJ) subsidiary DePuy Synthes for its Ortho-ATI stem cell regenerative therapy.
The 2 groups are planning a collaborative study for the 1st quarter in 2017, led by Allan Wang from the University of Western Australia. In previous studies, Ortho-ATI has proven to be a durable non-surgical solution for tendon injuries that are difficult to treat, according to Orthocell. Ortho-ATI delivers cultured tendon stem cells from the patient’s healthy tendon to the patient’s damaged tendon tissue.
