Conference call to be held on August 24, 2023 at 10:00 am U.S. ET; Dial-in information herein

REHOVOT, Israel, Aug. 24, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- CollPlant Biotechnologies (NASDAQ: CLGN), a regenerative and aesthetics medicine company developing innovative technologies and products based on its non-animal-derived collagen for tissue regeneration and organ manufacturing, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2023, and provided a corporate update on its programs.

CollPlant achieved a milestone related to its dermal filler program in collaboration with AbbVie, which triggered a related milestone payment in the second quarter of 2023.
CollPlant achieved a milestone related to its dermal filler program in collaboration with AbbVie, which triggered a related milestone payment in the second quarter of 2023.
"This quarter, we were very pleased to announce the achievement of an important milestone related to the dermal filler product developed in collaboration with our partner, AbbVie, for which we received a $10 million payment. We also announced a joint development and commercialization agreement with Stratasys, a world-leader in additive manufacturing that will initially focus on developing a bioprinting solution for the fabrication of our regenerative breast implants in development. Both collaborations are expected to allow us to continue our momentum towards reaching important upcoming milestones related to these programs, with the former providing a vehicle to maintain our strong cash position," said CollPlant's Chief Executive Officer, Yehiel Tal.

Mr. Tal continued, "One of our upcoming milestones will be initiating by the end of this year a second large-animal study to evaluate our regenerative breast implants. We have already established the trial infrastructure and look forward to providing an update as soon as we conclude this study."

Q2 and recent corporate highlights

Program development

CollPlant is planning to initiate a second large-animal study to evaluate commercial sized 3D bioprinted regenerative breast implants, by year end. This study follows the completion of the first large-animal study, the results of which were announced in January of this year. The first study demonstrated progressive stages of tissue regeneration after three months, as highlighted by the formation of maturing connective tissue and neovascular networks within the implants, with no adverse events reported.

In the U.S. alone, hundreds of thousands of people per year experience adverse events that range from autoimmune symptoms to the very serious breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL). CollPlant's breast implants that are comprised of CollPlant's proprietary plant-derived rhCollagen and other biomaterials, are expected to regenerate breast tissue without eliciting immune response, and thus may provide a revolutionary alternative for aesthetic and reconstructive procedures, including postmastectomy for cancer patients.

Collaboration updates

In June, CollPlant announced the achievement of a milestone with respect to the clinical phase dermal filler product, which is under its collaboration agreement with AbbVie. According to the agreement, the achievement of this milestone triggered a $10 million payment from AbbVie to CollPlant. CollPlant has the potential to receive additional milestone payments as well as future royalties in accordance with its long-term collaboration with AbbVie for the dermal filler product.

In April, CollPlant announced a joint development and commercialization agreement with Stratasys to collaborate on the development of a printing solution to bio-fabrication of human tissues and organs using Stratasys' P3 technology-based bioprinter and CollPlant's rh-Collagen-based bioinks. The bioprinting solution is being designed to enable the production of scaffolds that will accurately mimic the physical properties of human tissues and organs. These scaffolds are to meet the product specification including resolution and reproducibility. The combined proprietary technologies are expected to enable the fabrication of tissues and organs that also possess differentiated regenerative properties. The first project focuses on the development of an industrial-scale solution for CollPlant's regenerative breast implants program. Under the agreement, both companies have also agreed to cross-promote each other's bioprinting products.

CollPlant is developing, together with Tel Aviv University and Sheba Medical Center, a system that enhances the physiological relevance of the human gut to provide a predictive personalized platform. CollPlant mimics the gut structure by 3D printing the gut tissue geometry in high resolution using its unique rhCollagen-based bioink formulation. This tissue model is to be used for evaluating therapy response in patients suffering from ulcerative colitis. Recently, the CollPlant team managed to successfully grow epithelial cells on the 3D printed scaffolds that mimic the gut tissue geometry. The Company expects to be able to provide an update on next steps for this program by the end of this year.

CollPlant remains engaged in partnering dialogs with several industry leaders and academic institutions interested in the Company's rhCollagen technology and expertise in 3D bioprinting to develop therapeutics and medical applications.

Commercial portfolio of bioink solutions

CollPlant's bioink platform is intended to enable its customers to streamline the process of new product development while also accelerating timelines and reducing overall costs. CollPlant's new bioink, Collink.3D-50L is the first bioink available in powder form which provides enhanced operational specificity and flexibility for the end-user because of its mechanical properties to address additional printing requirements of soft and hard tissues. These features of CollPlant's new bioink enable the end user to address a wide range of 3D bioprinting applications, including drug discovery, drug screening and tissue testing, as well as the development of transplantable tissues and organs.

Operational updates

In line with CollPlant's mission to build a company that operates and works towards solutions that support a sustainable environment, CollPlant recently recruited a dedicated manager to analyze, formulate and execute upon the set of standards for its Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) program. This initiative is designed to help CollPlant meet the evolving standards applicable to publicly listed companies in the U.S., as well as help business partners and socially conscious investors better understand CollPlant's alignment with sustainable values – both operationally and as a component of its overall company mission.

CollPlant's rhCollagen BioInk Used by Technion Researchers to Develop 3D Bioprinted Vascularized Tissue Constructs

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/collplants-rhcollagen-bioink-used-technion-110000149.html

REHOVOT, Israel, Oct. 11, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- CollPlant Biotechnologies (Nasdaq: CLGN), a regenerative and aesthetics medicine company developing innovative technologies and products for tissue regeneration and organ manufacturing, today announced that its recombinant human collagen (rhCollagen)-based bioink was used successfully by researchers from Israel's Technion Institute of Technology to create a 3D bioprinted implantable tissue containing a network of blood vessels capable of supplying blood to the implanted tissue.

"We are excited with the impressive and innovative work of our collaborators at the Technion," said Yehiel Tal, CollPlant's CEO. "The combination of rhCollagen-based bioink and patient's own cells has the potential to create patient-specific tissues that are suitable for transplantation and eliminate the risk of implant rejection. The results of this study further substantiate the vast potential of rhCollagen-based bioinks for use in 3D bioprinting applications including in-vitro 3D models and regenerative medicine," added Mr. Tal.

Professor Shulamit Levenberg from the Biomedical Engineering Department at the Technion stated: "The ability to create vascularized tissue constructs using human collagen from modified plants rather than animal collagen is a very promising step towards development of fully lab-grown implantable tissues."

Engineered tissues require incorporating a vascular network to support transport of oxygen, nutrients and waste, without which cells cannot survive. In a study recently published in Advanced Materials, a team of researchers led by Professor Shulamit Levenberg who specializes in tissue engineering, used CollPlant's rhCollagen-based bioink to 3D print an artificial tissue with a functional, hierarchical blood vessel network. Following transplantation into a rat, blood was able to successfully flow through the transplanted tissue via the blood vessel network and support the long term survival and function of cells within the scaffold.

As the fundamental building block in human tissues, Type I collagen provides multiple biological signals, including mechanical and chemical signals mediating cell binding and interactions with other extracellular matrix molecules and growth factors. In contrast to previous studies where collagen from animals has been used to form scaffolds, the researchers at the Technion used CollPlant's rhcollagen-based BioInk owing to its unique physical properties, outstanding biological functionality and excellent compatibility with photopolymerization 3D printing.

Dear shareholders,

What a year it has been – and how it has changed our way of life! All of us have been affected in some way by Covid-19. We are optimistic that we will soon be able to return to normal life.

Despite the difficulties arising from the pandemic, we advanced several activities in 2020 making it a transformational year for CollPlant Biotechnologies.

Our partnerships

During the past year, we fostered existing partnerships and created new ones with Tier One companies. These collaborations further validate CollPlant's technology as the gold standard in human collagen and the optimal building block for regenerative and aesthetic medicine.

2021 kicked off with the exciting news of CollPlant entering into a development and commercialization agreement with Allergan Aesthetics, an AbbVie company, for CollPlant's type I recombinant human collagen (rhCollagen) to be used in dermal and soft tissue filler products. Combining rhCollagen's superior properties with Allergan's propriety technologies, this collaboration is expected to create a paradigm shift in the medical aesthetic field by providing next-generation regenerative products with long lasting results.

We expanded our collaboration with United Therapeutics which exercised its option with CollPlant to cover a second lifesaving organ, human kidneys, in addition to lungs. This expanded collaboration aims to help reduce global organ shortages of kidney transplants and potentially save the lives of millions of patients on kidney waiting lists.

CollPlant and 3D Systems have recently established a platform for collaboration in the field of 3D bioprinting, bringing together CollPlant's expertise in rhCollagen-based BioInks and regenerative medicine, with 3D Systems' expertise in 3D printing and healthcare. The collaboration aims to jointly address an unmet market need for a comprehensive solution to produce tissues and scaffolds for regenerative medicine applications.

We entered into a supply agreement with STEMCELL Technologies, Canada's largest privately owned biotechnology company, for use of CollPlant's rhCollagen in a broad range of cell culture applications. The recently signed agreement follows the companies' established business relationship, which started in 2014 when STEMCELL began purchasing and incorporating CollPlant's rhCollagen into some of its cell culture expansion and differentiation media kits. To date, hundreds of companies, as well as research and academic institutes, have used these kits for research and development projects. Under the supply agreement, STEMCELL distributes the kits globally for use in the regenerative medicine research market. The cell culture market is just one example of the vast potential of our rhCollagen platform technology in life science applications that have the potential to enable breakthroughs that improve patients' lives.

Our product pipeline

Our R&D team continued accelerating development of all our major programs.

CollPlant develops a variety of BioInk formulations that are tissue and organ specific. These BioInks enable the printing of constructs that mimic the properties of the target tissues or organs to facilitate optimal regeneration. CollPlant's rhCollagen has superior properties such as bio-functionality, homogeneity, and safety, and therefore it is the ideal building block for tissue and organ transplants used in regenerative medicine. Furthermore, CollPlant established a bioprinting lab to develop 3D bioprinted products alone or under collaboration with partners.

Our development program for injectable and bioprinted regenerative breast implants is moving forward quickly. These implants are designed to gradually degrade and be replaced by newly grown natural breast tissue that is free of any foreign material. This program is currently in the pre-clinical phase. In addition, we are on track with the development of photocurable formulations which are based on rhCollagen and other ingredients for dermal/soft tissue filler products used in the medical aesthetics market. CollPlant granted AbbVie a right of first negotiation to obtain a worldwide exclusive license for the abovementioned injectable breast implant and for the photocurable dermal filler products.

In November 2020, we announced our development program for an antiviral agent for potential treatment of COVID-19 patients. In-vitro early results of our formulations based on our proprietary rhCollagen imbedded with silver nanoparticles (AgNP) showed significant inhibition of avian coronavirus infectivity. Further studies are ongoing to optimize the formulations and doses. We intend to develop an anti-viral inhalation formulation to limit the spread of coronavirus in the upper and lower respiratory systems. With the pandemic inflicting a high human and financial toll, an available treatment can benefit millions worldwide and allow rapid recovery of social and economic activity while reducing the probability for new waves of infection.

Our activities in consortiums and societies

We continue to increase and cultivate our participation and leadership in societies and organizations that are at the forefront of creating industry standards and advancing biofabrication technologies.

As a member of the Industry Relations Committee of ISBF (International Society for Biofabrication), a scientific and professional society promoting advancements in biofabrication, I hosted ISBF's virtual event held in January 2021. The event titled "Translation of laboratory discoveries into large scale manufacturing of tissues and organs" featured experts in the field from academia and industry, and attracted great interest and participation.

In January 2020, we partnered with the Advanced Regenerative Manufacturing Institute (ARMI), a consortium of over 150 partner organizations from industry, academia, and the U.S. federal government. ARMI's mission is to make practical the large-scale manufacturing of engineered tissues and tissue-related technologies. As members of the ARMI consortium, CollPlant contributes its expertise in BioInks for 3D bioprinting of tissues and organs.

As part of the ARMI activity, CollPlant is also a member of two of the industry's most respected and globally recognized technical standard development organizations - ASTM international, the American Society for Testing and Materials, and ASME, the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. Being a part of these committees enables us to contribute our expertise and knowhow in the development of industry standards for biofabrication, and positions CollPlant as a leading player in regenerative medicine.

We are concluding our 3rd year as a member at the ReMDO (RegenMed Development Organization) advanced biomanufacturing initiative, where we contribute to the development of a universal BioInk with tunable properties for 3D bioprinting of tissues and organs.

Our financials

CollPlant reports on a preliminary basis unaudited revenue of approximately $6 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, an increase of 160% compared to audited revenue of $2.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. Unaudited revenue for the year ended December 31, 2020 was derived mainly from sales of CollPlant's BioInk for the development of 3D bioprinting of human lungs, the exercise of an option by United Therapeutics for licensing CollPlant technology to print kidneys, and sales of rhCollagen to AbbVie for medical aesthetics product development. CollPlant has approximately $50 million of unaudited cash reserves and no debt as of the date hereof. Unaudited cash reserves include $14 million that Collplant expects to receive in February 2021 as an upfront payment from AbbVie as part of the recently entered into strategic agreement with AbbVie.

I am happy with the increase in revenue from our long-term collaborators, as well as from our cash position that gives us the ability to execute our strategic plan. The preliminary estimate of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2020 and the unaudited cash reserve and debt as of the date hereof are based on currently available information, are subject to change and may vary from actual results. Collpant is under no obligation to update the preliminary estimate of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2020 and the cash reserve and debt as of the date hereof for any subsequent changes or events.

In summary,

These are exciting times at CollPlant Biotechnologies. There is much to be proud of, and yet much more to do. We believe we have all it takes to become the leader in regenerative medicine, helping people live longer and better through our innovative collagen technology. My deep appreciation goes out to our employees for their dedication and commitment to the advancement of our activities throughout these challenging times.

Tue, November 10, 2020, 7:00 AM EST
Pre-clinical results show significant inhibition of avian coronavirus infectivity when treated with CollPlant's novel approach

REHOVOT, Israel, Nov. 10, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- CollPlant (NASDAQ: CLGN) a regenerative medicine company, today announced its development program of an antiviral agent for potential treatment of COVID-19 patients. In-vitro early results of CollPlant's formulations showed significant inhibition of avian coronavirus infectivity. CollPlant's formulations designed for the potential treatment of COVID-19 patients are based on CollPlant's proprietary recombinant human type I collagen (rhCollagen) imbedded with silver nanoparticles (AgNP).

The anti-viral treatment concept was evaluated in-vitro using an avian coronavirus, a model of the human coronavirus SARS-COV-2, grown on epithelial cells. The potential efficacy was assessed by the ability of the formulations to protect the epithelial cells from lethal doses of the virus. The results show significant reduction in infectivity of the model virus by treatment with the rhCollagen-AgNP complexes. Further studies are ongoing to optimize the formulations and doses. CollPlant intends to develop an anti-viral inhalation formulation to limit the spread of coronavirus in the upper and lower respiratory systems.

"We are very pleased with the initial results from our COVID-19 program which demonstrate a significant reduction in coronavirus infectivity with CollPlant's antiviral rhCollagen-AgNP complex. While still in an early stage of development, by targeting the viral load CollPlant's formulations have the potential to assist the body's immune system to combat the viral infection, reduce transmission rates between people, reduce the percentage of patients who need to be treated in critical care settings, and shorten hospitalization time," stated Yehiel Tal, Chief Executive Officer of CollPlant. "Early treatment of the disease can prevent COVID-19 patients from developing more severe symptoms. With the pandemic inflicting a high human and financial toll, an available treatment can benefit millions worldwide and allow rapid recovery of social and economic activity while reducing the probability for new waves of infection."

Approximately $80 million from the US federal government is combined with more than $200 million in cost share to support the development of tissue and organ manufacturing capabilities. ARMI leads the Advanced Tissue Biofabrication Manufacturing Institute on behalf of the US Department of Defense. ARMI works to integrate and organize the fragmented collection of industry practices and domestic capabilities in tissue Biofabrication technology to better position the US relative to global competition. ARMI focuses on accelerating regenerative tissue research and creating state-of-the-art manufacturing innovations in biomaterial and cell processing for critical Department of Defense and civilian needs. ARMI's efforts are supported by industrial partners, academic and academically affiliated partners, and government and nonprofit partners. The ARMI partnership continues to grow.

ARMI's Chairman, inventor Dean Kamen stated, "We need to develop 21st century tools for engineered tissue manufacturing that will allow these innovations to be widely available – similar to how a 15th century tool (the printing press) allowed knowledge to spread widely during the Renaissance. As an ever-growing ecosystem of industrial, governmental, academic, non-profit and clinical institutions, I have no doubt that we can achieve our mission to make practical the large-scale manufacturing of engineered tissues and tissue-related technologies, to benefit existing industries and grow new ones."

Yehiel Tal, CollPlant's Chief Executive Officer commented, "CollPlant is very pleased to enter into this collaboration with ARMI and its network of partners from industry, academia, and the U.S. federal government. We all share the common goal of advancing 3D bioprinting and next-generation manufacturing of tissues and organs. We believe CollPlant's BioInks, based on our rhCollagen, are the ideal building block for tissue and organ manufacturing, and we are proud to contribute our expertise and to advance the entire science and industry of bioengineering and manufacturing. CollPlant is honored to be a part of this network of industry leaders."

Dear Fellow Shareholders,

CollPlant advanced in many directions during the past year, and I want to keep you apprised of our progress. This letter is meant to provide you with more information on topics that generally fall outside of our formal quarterly financial and business updates.

First, our R&D team continued moving forward aggressively across all our major programs. We are developing formulations comprised of rhCollagen and hyaluronic acid for dermal filler products used in the medical aesthetics market. In parallel, CollPlant is also advancing our collaboration with a leading company in this field. Within 3D bioprinting, we are developing rhCollagen-based BioInks for 3D printed lung scaffolds in collaboration with United Therapeutics. We are also advancing collaborations with other companies to develop 3D bioprinted tissues and scaffolds for regenerative medicine applications. Furthermore, our proprietary rhCollagen-based regenerative breast implants program has accelerated, and we are planning to launch an animal study in Q1 2020.

Second, our scientific, management, sales, marketing, and administrative teams are excited to now be under one roof at our new headquarters in Rehovot, Israel, which houses our state-of-the-art R&D labs for development of our 3D bioprinting technologies and medical aesthetics pipeline.

Third, we have successfully transferred our collagen purification processing from an outside contractor to a self-managed GMP facility located near our Rehovot HQ. Combined with some successful upstream process improvements, this has allowed us to capture significantly higher rhCollagen production yield, reduced costs, and improved gross margins on sales.

Fourth, we continuously expand and improve our upstream tobacco planting and extraction operations in Yessod, Israel. The operations team there is laser focused on expanding output, delivering higher per-ton yields, while maintaining consistent and high-quality product.

Altogether, this is an exciting time at CollPlant. There is much to be proud of, and yet much more to do. We believe we have the elements to become THE BREAKOUT COMPANY IN THE BIOPRINTNG SPACE. I look forward to providing you with further updates, and we welcome any questions you may have.

I would like to take this opportunity to wish you and your families Happy New Year and Happy Hanukkah.

Respectfully,

Yehiel Tal
Chief Executive Officer
