Company expects existing supply will suffice to complete clinical trial and lead to cost savings
The batch was manufactured in accordance with cGMP standards and is undergoing the required safety and quality testing ahead of release for clinical use. Upon release of the third batch, FibroBiologics expects to have sufficient drug product to complete the DFU clinical trial. The healing trend observed during the trial's early phase positions the Company to have surplus doses available for future research and development initiatives. This also translates into meaningful cost savings by eliminating the need for additional vial manufacturing. FibroBiologics anticipates reporting statistically significant interim data in Q3 2026.
"Producing sufficient drug product to complete our DFU clinical trial in only three batches is a significant achievement for the team," said Pete O'Heeron, Founder and CEO of FibroBiologics. "By not having to manufacture additional batches, we expect to reduce short-term cash outlays and experience significant cost savings."
