DiscGenics is a privately held, late-stage clinical biopharmaceutical company developing allogeneic, cell-based regenerative therapies for musculoskeletal degeneration. It’s lead product candidate, IDCT (injectable disc cell therapy, or rebonuputemcel), is a standalone, single-injection biologic treatment designed to halt progression of lumbar disc degeneration and regenerate the disc from the inside out. IDCT is entering pivotal Phase III trials in the U.S. to target pain and disability in patients with lumbar disc degeneration. The active ingredient in IDCT is a live, manufactured progenitor cell population derived from donated adult human intervertebral disc tissue, mixed with a viscous carrier. IDCT has been granted regenerative medicine advanced therapy (RMAT) and Fast Track designations by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. DiscGenics is also developing a follow-on allogeneic cell platform to enable new musculoskeletal indications. To further development of these unique therapies, DiscGenics has built and validated an in-house scalable, allogeneic cell manufacturing process.
