Mesenchymal Stromal Cells have great regenerative potential and their EV reflect this potential
Consistent and scalable manufacturing has been one of the main challenges so far
With EVscale™ we have developed a technology platform overcoming manufacturing challenges and enabling access to large amounts of EV with consistent biological activity
In this presentation we will show our in vitro and in vivo study results for two main indications Phoenestra is currently moving towards proof-of-concept
- Klaus Graumann - CEO and Co-Founder, Phoenestra
EVerZom is a French biopharmaceutical company spun out from CNRS and Université Paris Cité, specializing in the development of bioprocesses and therapeutic applications based on exosomes — extracellular vesicles naturally secreted by cells, with regenerative, immunomodulatory, and drug delivery potential. The company has developed a unique, fully integrated, and patented technological platform enabling industrial-scale production, functional engineering, and advanced characterization of exosomes.
At the core of this platform lies a mechanical stimulation technology based on fluid shear stress calibrated to the Kolmogorov length scale, which triggers massive exosome release while maintaining vesicle integrity and functionality. This proprietary method, validated in 10L bioreactors under GMP conditions in collaboration with the French Blood Establishment (EFS), achieves yields up to 100x higher than conventional methods, making it suitable for clinical-grade manufacturing.
The company’s lead therapeutic program, EVerGel™, is a thermosensitive hydrogel embedding MSC-derived exosomes for tissue regeneration in the gastrointestinal tract, with a focus on the treatment of complex digestive fistulas in patients with Crohn’s disease. Upon injection, the formulation transitions into a gel at body temperature, enabling localized and sustained delivery. The exosomes exert synergistic effects by promoting tissue repair, reducing inflammation, and modulating immune responses. EVerGel has shown strong efficacy in eight preclinical animal models, with regulatory toxicology studies scheduled for 2025 and first-in-human clinical trials planned for 2026 (Phase I/IIa).
