i-FACTOR and P-15

Product information and handling instructions

i-FACTOR Bone Graft is an advanced biologic that is supported with level I evidence, satisfies the highest regulatory imperatives, and provides a better cost/benefit ratio than engineered growth factors and cellular allografts.

i-FACTOR Bone Graft is the only biologic bone graft made of a small peptide, P-15 Osteogenic Cell Binding Peptide, bound to an anorganic bone mineral (ABM). This unique combination creates a surface-bound “Attract, Attach, Activate” mechanism of action that enhances the body’s natural bone healing process. Being surface-bound, all cellular activity resulting from P-15 Osteogenic Cell Binding Peptide attachment is restricted to the implant surface so bone cannot grow where it doesn’t belong (ectopic bone growth).

i-FACTOR Bone Graft is not a morphogen so, unlike engineered growth factors, the signals sent following P-15 Osteogenic Cell Binding Peptide attachment in a bony site only activate cells that are pre-programmed to become osteoblasts.

i-FACTOR Bone Graft products are sterilized after packaging (terminally sterilized), can be stored at room temperature and have a three-year shelf life. i-FACTOR Bone Graft is ready to use and thus requires no mixing or other preparation prior to use.

The proof you require, the safety you demand.

FDA PMA approved (2015) active biologic and has been CE Marked since 2008.

Safety by design

Safety by design

The unique P-15 action is surface bound and unlike growth factors only grows bone where you need it.

i-FACTOR Biologic Bone Graft novel mechanism of action enhances the body’s natural bone healing process, resulting in safe, predictable bone formation. ABM/P-15 has been in human clinical use for more than 17 years in an estimated 500,000 patients worldwide.
