Profile

Regenerative medicine is the vanguard of 21st century healthcare. The company is on the cusp of a worldwide explosion of activity in this rapidly growing field of biomedicine that will revolutionize health care treatment. Regenerative medicine will lead to the creation of fully biological or bio-hybrid tissues and organs that can replace or regenerate tissues and organs damaged by disease, injury, or congenital anomaly. Because of the economic potential of this industry (the worldwide market for regenerative medicine is conservatively estimated to be $500 billion by 2010), initiatives to capture significant market share are multiplying around the world.
 

Healtheuniverse specializes and is currently striving to be the first to commercialize the use of non-embryonic stem cell therapy applications in the field of Plastic, Reconstructive and Cosmetic Surgery. The market for plastic, reconstructive, and cosmetic surgery procedures today exceeds $15 billion per year. It's estimated that cosmetic surgery procedures represent approximately $10 billion of industry revenues. Plastic Surgery encompasses both reconstructive and aesthetic surgery, commonly referred to as cosmetic surgery. While not essential to physical health, aesthetic surgery can improve the appearance of normal body features and enhance self image and is the most promising sector for profit driven use of regenerative medicine and stem cell applications.
 

Healtheuniverse is locating substantially all research and development operations in Biopolis Singapore to take advantage of its world-class R&D environment, state-of-the art facilities, and the availability of shared facilities and services. The Company intends to cut R&D costs significantly while accelerating their development and commercialization timeline. By co-locating with the public research institutes onsite the company feels that it will provide economies of scale to optimize the use of high end resources such as X-ray crystallography, nuclear magnetic resonance, electron microscopy, DNA sequencing and other necessary equipment without incurring the expense and time needed to purchase this equipment.
 

Healtheuniverse believes that regenerative medicine has the potential to revolutionize medicine by being able to produce human cells of any kind for use in a wide-array of surgical and therapeutic applications. The company owns 2 patents and patent applications related to the field of stem cell therapy, which allows the production of stem cells genetically matched to the patient. The Company is focused on being the first to commercialize the use of regenerative medicine in plastic and reconstructive surgery and to develop therapeutic uses in the most profitable commercial applications.
 


Commercial Applications

The company believes that, if successfully developed, stem cell-based therapy has the potential to provide treatment for plastic and reconstructive surgery and a broad range of acute and chronic degenerative diseases. The company also believes the potential applications of cell-based therapeutics include: fat tissue for plastic, reconstructive and cosmetic surgery, myocardial and endothelial vascular tissue for cardiovascular disease, skin cells for dermatological conditions, neural cells for spinal cord injury and other neuro-degenerative diseases, pancreatic cells for diabetes, cartilage cells for arthritis and orthopedic applications.


Specific U.S. Target Markets for Commercialization

Plastic, Reconstructive and Cosmetic Surgery: The market for plastic, reconstructive, and cosmetic surgery procedures today exceeds $15 billion per year. It's estimated that cosmetic surgery procedures represent approximately $10 billion of industry revenues. Plastic Surgery encompasses both reconstructive and aesthetic surgery, commonly referred to as cosmetic surgery. While not essential to physical health, aesthetic surgery can improve the appearance of normal body features and enhance self image.
 

Dermatology: The worldwide market for prescription dermatological drugs is expected to expand at a healthy pace to surpass $10 billion by 2006. The most dynamic segment going forward appears to be the anti-aging segment, where botulinum agents, namely Botox, will change the competitive landscape, according to the study. An aging population, a growing consumerism in prescription markets, and a general trend toward so-called 'lifestyle' drugs point to great success for new products in the anti-aging segment.
 

Orthopedic Surgery: Orthopedic applications and the financial statistics in the US and abroad are huge in terms of both procedures and dollars, and the aging population throughout the developed world will only push those numbers higher. Care for arthritis alone costs well over $100 billion per year worldwide. Musculoskeletal drug sales are estimated at over $15 billion worldwide and have been the fastest growing drug segment in recent years. Orthopedic care represents 10% of all healthcare expenditures, including hospital admissions, and 40% of all emergency room visits. Arthritis and orthopedic impairments, when added together, are the most prevalent chronic conditions in the United States, exceeding sinusitis and allergies, high blood pressure and heart disease, and asthma and chronic bronchitis.
 

Vascular Surgery: Vascular surgery involves diseases and disorders of the peripheral arteries, veins and lymphatic system which commonly include aortic aneurysms and peripheral arterial disease. The cardiovascular and peripheral vascular medicine is a $1.3 billion market in the US.
 

Cardiac Surgery: An aging baby boomer population at increased risk for coronary artery disease (CAD) is driving US demand for less invasive techniques to treat adverse cardiovascular conditions. Rising procedure volumes in the US have made interventional cardiology (IC), the minimally invasive medical specialty concerned with the treatment of CAD, a burgeoning and lucrative market. According to a new report published by Millennium Research Group (MRG), over 1 million Americans underwent a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) procedure in 2004, contributing partly to IC market revenue in excess of $4 billion.
 

Wound Care: Wound care is currently estimated to be a $100 Billion market in the US and growing almost exponentially as the Baby Boomer generation age. Recent evidence suggests that coetaneous repair also involves recruitment of non-resident, undifferentiated cells from distant sources, such as fat cells. Populations of progenitor cells have been identified as valuable sources of uncommitted cells that are capable of reconstituting multiple cell types in various tissues, including skin.
 


Combating Rising Medical Costs and the Baby Boomer Demographic

Beyond the obvious health benefits of regenerative medicine and adult stem cell therapy, this technology is desperately needed to combat rising healthcare costs. Current national healthcare costs are in excess of $1.5 trillion annually, or 13 percent of Gross Domestic Product (GDP). By 2040, as the last baby boomer becomes a senior citizen, the population of senior citizens over the age of 65 in the U.S. will be double today's number, for a total of 70 million. Accordingly, as much as 25 percent of the U.S. GDP would be devoted to healthcare by 2040. The majority of these projected costs stem from recurring treatments for diseases that arise from tissue failure commonly seen in the elderly.
 

The baby boomer demographic is one that has seen continual medical advancement in their lifetime. This group expects the best from healthcare and will have the greatest need for regenerative medicine. These therapies will help combat common diseases in the elderly such as diabetes, osteoporosis, and cardiovascular disease. Baby boomers will almost certainly rally behind the efforts to advance regenerative medicine as it offers them the greatest hope for the most effective medical treatment and quality of life in their senior years.
