The latest news, announcements and press releases from Humacyte.
Trestle Biotherapeutics and Humacyte (Nasdaq: HUMA) have announced a research collaboration to explore technology synergies for bioengineering vascularized organs for transplantation. The partnership will investigate the integration of Trestle Bio's biofabricated human kidney tissues with Humacyte's FDA-approved ATEV™ technology.
The collaboration aims to develop a human bioengineered kidney with vascular perfusion, targeting the significant global need in kidney disease treatment. Currently, over 800 million patients worldwide suffer from chronic kidney disease, with 600,000 US patients dependent on dialysis. While approximately 100,000 patients are on the transplant waiting list, only 25,000 successful transplants occur annually.
Trestle Bio's technology focuses on developing implantable bioengineered kidney tissue designed to reduce ESRD patients' dialysis dependency. This collaboration follows Humacyte's recent FDA approval for ATEV™ as a vascular conduit for extremity arterial injury treatment.
