Istios Health

Istios Health is a regenerative medicine company focused on developing advanced synthetic scaffolds for soft tissue repair and chronic wound management. Spun out of the Kaplan Lab at Tufts University, the company utilizes a proprietary silk fibroin-based platform to create bio-resorbable templates that facilitate natural tissue regeneration. Their lead technology is designed to address the limitations of current biological skin substitutes, such as high costs, complex storage requirements, and inconsistent clinical outcomes. By providing a scalable and shelf-stable synthetic alternative, Istios Health aims to improve access to high-quality wound care for patients suffering from diabetic foot ulcers and venous leg ulcers. The company's platform optimizes the microenvironment to promote cellular infiltration and rapid vascularization, ultimately accelerating the healing process.
