Articulus Bio received an undisclosed amount of funding from AngelMD. The company is developing a total ankle replacement specifically addressing the issue of wear debris.
Articulus seeks capital to collect performance data on sub-assembly components of its Tendonoid™ Web Joint technology, which is designed to reduce and eliminate friction at articulating joint faces.
Tendonoid technology is based on a novel configuration of Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE), used to create an implant that “floats” the patient’s weight on a web of UHMWPE cords to allow anatomical range of motion without wear debris generation. The total ankle device and custom jig are 3D-printed from CT scan data for just-in-time, per-patient use. Articulus intends to take lessons learned from its total ankle device and investigate application in other large and small joints.
Funds from AngelMD will also support pursuit of a Q-Submission meeting with FDA and the continued build of Articulus’ intellectual property portfolio.
