BioStem Technologies (OTC: BSEM) highlighted recent U.S. FDA leadership remarks endorsing expanded use of Bayesian statistical methods in clinical trials and tied that openness to its published randomized controlled trial using Bayesian regression and hurdle modeling.
The company said its DFU study showed superior clinical outcomes for BioRetain® processed allografts, with the BR-AC arm almost twice as likely to achieve lasting wound closure versus standard of care. BioStem plans to apply similar Bayesian analyses to ongoing VLU and DFU studies and cited its BioRetain and CryoTek technologies in preserving tissue integrity.

BioStem Technologies (OTC: BSEM) commented on CMS's withdrawal of all seven proposed Local Coverage Determinations for skin substitutes used to treat diabetic foot ulcers and venous leg ulcers, which would have taken effect on January 1, 2026. The company said the withdrawal ensures continued patient access to VENDAJE and VENDAJE AC and is not expected to impact its ability to serve patients and clinicians. BioStem emphasized its commitment to an evidence-based strategy and to investing in expanded clinical data to demonstrate differentiated performance versus alternatives.
BioStem Technologies (OTC: BSEM) announced that VENDAJE and VENDAJE AC were placed on a 12-month Status Quo list under CMS’s final LCDs for skin substitutes, effective Jan 1, 2026. This designation preserves Medicare reimbursement eligibility for DFU and VLU through 2026, with payment reviewed on a claim-by-claim basis by MACs.
CMS limits the final LCDs to DFU and VLU only, leaving payment and billing for other wound types—including pressure ulcers, which represent 41% of the chronic wound market and the company’s largest segment—unaffected. MACs will accept additional evidence through Dec 31, 2026, with reconsideration and updated determinations expected in early 2027.
