Clinical Experience

Wounds treated by Apligraf®
Apligraf® was developed and is manufactured by Organogenesis, one of the world’s first biotechnology companies, and the world’s most important tissue regeneration company. Apligraf® has been used worldwide to heal ulcers for over 10 years. Apligraf® is the first living, cell-based tissue regeneration product, having gained the Food and Drug Administration’s approval in 1998.

Proven results
In studies, Apligraf® has been proven to heal chronic wounds significantly faster than standard wound care; moist dressing, compression therapy, debridement (debridement is a treatment involving the removal of dead, damaged or infected tissue from a wound), off-loading and compression therapy. Clinical trials have also shown that Apligraf® can help close many severe wounds that have been resistant to standard therapy. Apligraf® is safe and well tolerated, with no major reported side effects.2,3
