Kelyniam Global, Inc. announced that it has entered into a strategic licensing agreement with Fin-ceramica faenza spa to market the company's hydroxyapatite patient specific implant. This bio-mimetic ceramic biomaterial is based on macro and micro porous Hydroxyapatite (HA), a major (70%) component of human bone. The specific bio-mimetic chemical composition combined with an elevated interconnected porosity play a role in the perimetral osteointegration process. The innovative CustomizedBone Service implant is indicated for use in adult and pediatric patients (for children 7 years of age and above). The highly bio-compatible material, shows a reduced post-op infection incidence compared to titanium-based implants. Kelyniam will distribute the implant through its active salesforce of more than 50 representatives starting in January. Representatives will carry both PEEK (polyether ether ketone) and hydroxyapatite products. The CustomizedBoneä implant was previously marketed in the U.S. by Integra Lifesciences.
Kelyniam Global, Inc. is a custom design-to-build medical device manufacturing company. The Company specializes in the delivery of cranial implant technologies to neurologically dependent patients. The Company is engaged in the production of custom prosthetics utilizing computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing of medical-grade polymers. Its Engineering Division uses Bio-Computer Aided Design (CAD) Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) technology to provide replicated cranial implants to replace damaged bone structures. Its product, PEEK-Optima, is engineered for biocompatibility. Derived from the patientâs computed tomography (CT) data, the Companyâs 3D BIO-CAD/CAM software is used to transfer the details found on the edge of the defect directly to the implant edge. Its K-Plans include ke24, ke72 and kp5day. The Companyâs emergency plan, ke24, provides precision-replicated, patient-specific cranial implants in approximately 24 hours.
