Products

Carticept Medical's products are designed to address the shortcomings of current conservative and surgical treatment options for osteoarthritis and cartilage injuries, as well as to provide cost-effective and efficient solutions for the delivery of selected therapies.

Navigator DS

The Company has developed the Navigator™ Delivery System
(Navigator DS), a computer-controlled, infusion system intended to automate and improve the efficiency of fluid or medication administration.  Treatment data is provided in either a printed or electronic format for the convenience of the user.

The Company has filed for FDA clearance of its initial infusion device and expects to launch the system in 2010.

Through its core technologies and commitment to innovation, Carticept will continue to advance novel therapies and to offer cost-effective and efficient solutions that benefit both patients and physicians.

* The Navigator DS is not currently approved or cleared for sale or distribution in the United States.

Cartiva SCI
The Company’s first commercial product is the Cartiva™ Synthetic Cartilage Implant (Cartiva SCI), designed to replace or repair worn or damaged cartilage. The implant is made of an advanced proprietary biomaterial with wear and other physical properties similar to human cartilage.  Cartiva SCI is currently available in Canada, Europe and South America.

To date, several thousand patients have been implanted with Cartiva SCI to address the pain and functional limitations associated with osteoarthritis in a variety of joints including the knee, the first metatarsophalangeal joint (great toe) and the carpometacarpal joint (thumb).

*Cartiva SCI is approved for use in international markets, but is not currently approved for sale or distribution in the United States.
