Regentis Biomaterials Ltd. (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.
GelrinC is a cell-free, off-the-shelf hydrogel that is eroded and resorbed in the knee, allowing surrounding cells to regenerate cartilage in a controlled and synchronous process. The product 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. The European launch follows CE Mark approval, which allows the product to be marketed in the European Economic Area.
The training program is designed to ensure that surgeons are proficient in the GelrinC implantation technique, which is a single-step procedure. By establishing Centers of Excellence, Regentis aims to create hubs of expertise that can disseminate knowledge and best practices across the continent. This approach is expected to accelerate adoption and build confidence among healthcare providers.
