The Alliance for Regenerative Medicine’s (ARM) report highlights major trends and metrics from the 2018 second quarter in the regenerative medicines sector.
On Aug. 8, 2018, The Alliance for Regenerative Medicine (ARM) released its most recent quarterly data report that examines trends and metrics in cell therapy, gene therapy, tissue engineering, and the broader global regenerative medicine sector in the second quarter (Q2) and first half of 2018.
With information provided by Informa, ARM’s data partner, the report details industry-specific statistics compiled from more than 875 cell therapy, gene therapy, tissue engineering, and other regenerative medicine companies worldwide, including total financings, partnerships and other deals, clinical-trial information, key clinical-data events, and current legislative and regulatory priorities.
The report also features commentary from ARM’s recent webinar on FDA’s regenerative medicine advanced therapy (RMAT) designation, cohosted with Informa.
