BIONCaRT at a Glance
Our Focus
BIONCaRT specializes in the development, approval, and manufacturing of allogeneic, stem cell-based medicines for the treatment of orthopedic diseases.
Our focus is on innovative therapeutic concepts for the regeneration of articular cartilage, based on mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) derived from umbilical cord tissue.
About MesemCart
MesemCart is a cell therapy for the treatment of focal cartilage defects in the knee joint. The processed MSCs are applied to a collagen-based matrix and implanted minimally invasively.
MesemCart offers a promising alternative to autologous therapies – without the need for a second surgery, with standardized cell quality, and rapid availability.

Clinical Study
MesemCart is currently being tested for safety and initial efficacy in the treatment of cartilage defects in a regulatory-approved Phase I/IIa study.
Strategic Markets & Expansion Potential
The need for innovative treatment solutions for cartilage defects is continuously increasing. Current epidemiological data show that several million people worldwide are affected by cartilage damage each year – many of them in the knee joint.
At the same time, there are still only limited approved regenerative treatment options available.
MesemCart specifically addresses this growing medical need with an innovative, allogeneic-based therapeutic approach.
Primary Markets
Germany: Focus on Market Introduction and Initial Regulatory Strategy
European Union: EMA Approval Expansion and Market Growth
USA: FDA Approval Expansion and Market Growth
Forecasts suggest that the global market for regenerative joint tissue will experience double-digit annual growth in the coming years – driven by demographic trends, increased health awareness, and the growing demand for minimally invasive treatment options.
BIONCaRT is positioning itself early in an attractive and rapidly growing market segment with significant medical and economic need.
Market Figures
Patient Need
Damage to the hyaline articular cartilage is found in approximately 60–80% of all knee arthroscopies.
Cell Therapy Growth
The projected annual market growth for cell therapy is estimated at 17% to 25% CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate) through 2030.
Cartilage Therapy Segment
The global market size for stem cell-based cartilage regeneration is expected to reach approximately USD 0.45 billion by 2032.
Unmet Medical Need
Few approved allogeneic stem cell cartilage therapies exist — giving MesemCart a first-mover advantage.
Clinical Trial and Next Steps
MesemCart is currently being evaluated in a prospective, multicenter Phase I/IIa clinical trial. This study aims to assess the safety, tolerability, and initial signs of efficacy of the therapy in patients with focal cartilage defects of the knee joint.
