MONTREAL, Nov. 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ - ChitogenX Inc., (CSE: CHGX) (OTCQB: CHNXF) ("
ChitogenX" or the "
Company"), a clinical-stage regenerative medicine company, today announced that it has launched a new development program targeting significant unmet medical needs in the burn and skin repair market, currently valued at US $19B and growing at 5% + CAGR through 2032. Proof of concept studies have already been successfully completed and results will be the subject of news releases in the coming weeks.
"ChitogenX wishes to leverage positive data in proof-of-concept studies combined with the recently obtained US and Canadian patents for our chitosan-based biopolymer. Burn and skin repair programs potentially allow for efficient clinical trial development program, streamlined regulatory process and faster path to commercialization'', said Philippe Deschamps, President and CEO. ''The Company's proprietary chitosan-based biopolymer is well suited to help address significant unmet medical needs to repair skin defects caused by burns, other trauma and wounds of various aetiologies, alone or in combination with other cellular technologies, due to its unique characteristics allowing it to adhere to tissues thus facilitating the delivery of various therapeutic interventions to its target tissue when compared to standard of care", continued Deschamps.
While pursuing its' soft tissue repair programs, ChitogenX believes that targeting the skin integrity market will allow ChitogenX to leverage its ongoing work in the ortho-regenerative market where our technology is being evaluated to deliver therapeutic compounds such as PRP to patients in need.

The Company is committed to the clinical development of its proprietary Chitosan Based Biopolymer technology platform, a proprietary muco-adhesive scaffold, specifically designed to be combined with therapeutics to improve tissue repair.
Other formulations are being developed to leverage the technology's performance characteristics such as tissue adhesion, pliability, and ability to deliver biologics or therapeutics to various tissues damaged by trauma or disease.
