Announcement
AVITA Medical, Inc. announced the first clinical publication evaluating Cohealyx™, an AVITA Medical-branded collagen-based dermal matrix, published in the Journal of Surgery (Akpunonu et al., 2025).
AI Summary
AVITA Medical, Inc. announced the first clinical publication evaluating Cohealyx™, an AVITA Medical-branded collagen-based dermal matrix, in the Journal of Surgery (Akpunonu et al., 2025). The study showed that Cohealyx™ enables significantly faster wound bed vascularization and readiness for autografting compared to conventional dermal matrices. In a case series at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, two patients with complex full-thickness hand wounds were treated with Cohealyx™. One patient achieved a well-vascularized wound bed by day 5 and proceeded to autografting on day 7, while the other reached vascularization by day 10 and underwent autografting on day 13. Both patients experienced excellent skin graft take and improved functional recovery. The results suggest that Cohealyx™ may lead to earlier, definitive wound closure, reducing patient recovery time and overall complication risks.

AI Summary
AVITA Medical, Inc. announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted 510(k) clearance for its new product, Cohealyx™, a collagen-based dermal matrix developed in partnership with Regenity Biosciences. Cohealyx is designed to promote tissue integration and revascularization, which can speed up wound healing and improve overall patient outcomes in full-thickness wounds, including those resulting from burns. Preclinical studies in animal models showed that Cohealyx can support a split-thickness skin graft more quickly than other dermal matrices. The clearance supports AVITA’s commitment to expanding their treatment options for severe skin injuries by complementing existing products like the RECELL System and PermeaDerm. This approval paves the way for further clinical studies in early 2025 and is expected to significantly boost the company’s market potential in the burns arena.

The RECELL GO mini uses the same multi-use processing device but features a modified cartridge that is optimized for smaller skin samples, reducing resource use and minimizing waste. This expanded option targets clinicians treating full-thickness skin defects, particularly in trauma and burn centers, offering a more accessible and efficient solution. The FDA approval supports AVITA’s strategy to increase the accessibility of innovative wound care solutions and drive broader adoption of the RECELL platform.
