Product Concept

Innovacell has developed a proprietary cell-based product concept by proliferating autologous myoblasts from a biopsy taken from the patients’ own biceps muscle. Involving a minimally invasive surgery, the patient’s proliferated muscle cells are injected into the patient’s urethral or rectal sphincter, curing urinary or rectal incontinence, respectively. The company owns intellectual property rights for the injection device, the Sonoject^®, for the ultrasound-guided implantation of the cells.

Innovacell's product concept is unique in terms of composition and methodology. Patients benefit from Innovacell’s natural, one-time, non-intrusive treatment, which can cure stress urinary incontinence and faecal incontinence potentially for a lifetime. Today Innovacell has already demonstrated the robustness of its technology platform and its proprietary product concept to deliver effective clinical solutions to potentially millions of patients suffering from incontinence.
