Degenerative disc disease is a chronic and progressive condition that is characterized by inflammation and breakdown of tissue within the intervertebral disc. Located between the vertebral bones in the spine, the intervertebral disc acts like a pillow to cushion and evenly distribute pressure across the vertebrae. Each disc is comprised of an outer fibrous ring, the annulus fibrosus, which surrounds an inner gel-like center, the nucleus pulposus.
The first product candidate to utilize the Discogenic Cell platform is IDCT (rebonuputemcel).
