Description:

Biostage is a biotechnology company developing esophageal implants for patients battling life-threatening conditions. It uses the patient’s stem cells grown on a porous plastic tubular scaffold to regenerate the esophagus after it has been removed by a surgeon due to cancer, trauma, or birth defects. Once the regeneration is complete, typically after about 3 months, the scaffold is removed via the mouth. It requires no surgical incision to remove the scaffold.
