Regentis Biomaterials (NYSE American: RGNT) has announced plans to begin European surgeon training activities in the third quarter of 2026 as part of preparations for the commercial rollout of GelrinC(R), its CE Mark-approved treatment for knee cartilage lesions. The hands-on program will provide orthopedic surgeons with practical experience using the company's cell-free implant and is expected to begin at Humanitas Research Hospital in Milan, Italy, with additional sessions planned across Europe.
The company said the training initiative is a key step in its European commercialization strategy and will be supported by a network of Centers of Excellence focused on surgeon education, clinical guidance and knowledge sharing. GelrinC is designed as a ready-to-use, single-step implant procedure for knee cartilage repair, and Regentis believes expanding physician familiarity with the technology will support adoption as the product enters broader clinical use.

Regentis Biomaterials Ltd. is a regenerative medicine company dedicated to developing innovative tissue repair solutions that restore health and enhance quality of life. With an initial focus on orthopedic treatments, Regentis' Gelrin platform technology, based on synchronized, degradable hydrogel implants, regenerates damaged or diseased tissue including inflamed cartilage and bone. Regentis' lead product GelrinC(R) is a cell-free, off-the-shelf hydrogel that is eroded and resorbed in the knee, allowing the surrounding cells to regenerate the cartilage in a controlled and synchronous process. GelrinC(R) aims to address a market of approximately 470,000 cases for cartilage knee repair annually in the U.S. where no off-the-shelf treatment is available.
This announcement is significant because it signals Regentis's progress toward commercializing GelrinC in Europe, potentially offering a new treatment option for knee cartilage lesions. The surgeon training program is a critical step in ensuring that orthopedic surgeons are proficient with the implant, which could facilitate broader adoption and improved patient outcomes.
