Abstract

Abstract The present invention provides improved osteogenic compositions having enhanced by the sorption of growth factors, of nutrient factors, or drugs onto or into the compositions. Compositions may consist of collagen and demineralized bone materials onto and into which growth factors, antimicrobial agent, a nutrient factors, or other soluble factors may be sorbed to enhance the osteogenic factor. These materials can be used in a wide range of clinical procedures to replace and restore osseous or periodontal defects.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 17
Claim 1
Independent Claim 62 words
A porous or semi-porous osteogenic composition comprising a porous or semiporous matrix of an organic or inorganic material and at least one osteogenic factor, wherein at least one agent selected from the group consisting of growth factors, nutrient factors, drugs, antimicrobial agents, calcium containing compounds, blood proteins or products, and anti-inflammatory agents is sorbed into or onto the porous or semi-porous matrix.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 62 words
A porous or semi-porous osteogenic composition comprising a porous or semiporous matrix of an organic or inorganic material and at least one osteogenic factor, wherein at least one agent selected from the group consisting of growth factors, nutrient factors, drugs, antimicrobial agents, calcium containing compounds, blood proteins or products, and anti-inflammatory agents is sorbed into or onto the porous or semi-porous matrix.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 23 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said nutrient factor is selected from the group consisting of vitamins, cell culture media, and amino acids.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 27 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said calcium containing compound is selected from the group consisting of calcium hydroxide, calcium phosphates, calcium lactate and organic calcium salts.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 18 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said drugs are selected from the group consisting of tetracycline and metronidazole.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 20 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said antimicrobial agent is selected from the group consisting of chlorahexadine and zinc citrate.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 24 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said porous or semi-porous matrix is collagen and said osteogenic factor is one or more Bone Morphogenetic Protein.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 20 words
The composition of claim 6 wherein the composition is in the form of a porous particle, fleece, membrane, or fiber.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 37 words
The composition of claim 1 in which the growth factor is selected from the group consisting of fibroblast growth factor, transforming growth factors alpha and beta, insulin-like growth factor, nerve growth factor and platelet derived growth factor.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 15 words
The composition of claim 8 wherein said Transforming Growth Factor-Beta is Transforming Growth Factog-Beta 2.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 21 words
The composition of claim 1, wherein said porous or semi-porous matrix is collagen and said osteogenic factor is demineralized bone particles.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 21 words
The composition of claim 10 wherein said composition is in the form of a sponge, porous particles, fleece, membrane or fiber.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 13 words
The composition of claim 10 in which the composition is a sponge form.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim 27 words
A method of treating an osseous defect in a subject or periodontal defect by implanting the composition of claim 1 to the osseous defect or periodontal defect.
Claim 15
Independent Claim 69 words
A method of making an osteogenic composition having enhanced osteogenic potential comprising: (a) forming a porous or semi-porous matrix of an inorganic or organic material and at least one osteogenic factor; and (b) sorbing at least one agent selected from the group consisting of growth factors, nutrient factors, drugs, antimicrobial agents, calcium containing compounds, blood proteins or products or anti-inflammatory agents into or onto said porous and semi-porous matrix.
Claim 16
Independent Claim 69 words
A method of making an osteogenic composition having enhanced osteogenic potential comprising: (a) forming a porous or semi-porous matrix of an inorganic or organic material and at least one osteogenic factor; and (b) sorbing at least one agent selected from the group consisting of growth factors, nutrient factors, drugs, antimicrobial agents, calcium containing compounds, blood proteins or products or anti-inflammatory agents into or onto said porous and semi-porous matrix.
Claim 17
Dependent Claim 14 words
The method of claim 11 wherein said growth factor is Transforming Growth Factor-Beta 2.
