Kyoto Medical Planning

Kyoto Medical Planning is a private Japanese medical device company that combines distribution, national agency sales, and in-house research and development. The company manufactures and sells medical devices and biomaterial-based products, including biodegradable stents, absorbable tissue reinforcement materials, and gelatin fiber substrates used for cell culture and regenerative medicine research. Its historical flagship R&D program is the Igaki-Tamai family of bioabsorbable stents, including the REMEDY peripheral biodegradable stent, while its currently marketed product set also includes Genocel and Pawdre. Beyond proprietary products, the company also acts as a regional and national supplier of interventional and hospital devices, especially in cardiovascular care. Overall, Kyoto Medical Planning appears best characterized as a healthcare-focused medical device and biomaterials company rather than a drug-development biotech.
