Evaluation of Osteoconductive Scaffolds in the Canine Femoral Multi-Defect Model

Abstract: Treatment of large segmental bone defects remains an unsolved clinical challenge, despite a wide array of existing bone graft materials. This project was designed to rapidly assess and compare promising biodegradable osteoconductive scaffolds for use in the systematic development of new bone regeneration methodologies that combine scaffolds, sources of osteogenic cells, and bioactive scaffold modifications. Promising biomaterials and scaffold fabrication methods were identified in laboratories at Rutgers, MIT,… Show more

“…With fibrotic healing, some clinical complications, such as nonunion and encapsulation, can emerge. To avoid such complications, and to provide regeneration of bone tissue in the region, reconstruction of defects with graft materials is required (21,22). In the defects that are not reconstructed with graft material, the cells of fibrous tissue migrate to the defect region and activate fibrotic healing.…”

“…Composite scaffolds are usually printed using synthetic polymers such as polylactic acid (PLA), polyglycolic acid (PGA), polylactic-polyglycolic acid (PLGA), polyethylene glycol (PEG), and PCL, combined with hydroxyapatite (HA) or β-TCP (16)(17)(18). In this case, we used PCL and β-TCP.…”

“…This study proposed new class of magnetic hydroxyapatites which can be used to develop new magnetic ceramic scaffolds with enhanced regenerative properties for bone regeneration based on hyperthermia [97]. Other common synthetic materials used to form scaffolds for bone healing are polymer materials, such as poly (alpha-hydroxy esters) [98], poly(urethanes) [99], and poly(carbonates) [100]. All of them have been applied within large bone defects, as void filler and as an osteoconductive matrix.…”
