Delivering precision in a critical bone defect model for implantable device safety testing

08 May 2025

When serious bone injuries occur, patients often need treatments that can stimulate new bone growth. Biotech companies that develop medical devices for this purpose rely on critical bone defect models to assess the effectiveness of the new product. Recently, an emerging biotech developed a bone void filler that warranted safety testing to see how well their implantable device could promote bone regeneration. Seeking a lab partner that could perform the necessary study and show new bone growth via a complicated surgical model, the sponsor turned to Labcorp for support.
