Industrialization and Translation of Extracellular Vesicles for use in Regenerative Medicine (U43/U44 Clinical Trials Not Allowed)

This FOA provides support using the SBIR cooperative agreement mechanisms for the development of novel extracellular vesicle-based therapeutic platforms for use in regenerative medicine. Both native and engineered EVs have demonstrated the ability for specific and targeted tissue and organ repair, which can be harnessed for applications such as extracellular vesicle-based therapeutics. The main objective for this funding opportunity is to support platform-oriented technology development associated with the production, manufacturing, and use, of extracellular vesicles as therapeutics in regenerative medicine.
