About PEP^TM, an Exosome Therapeutic Platform

PEP (Purified Exosome Product^TM) is the world’s first clinical-grade room temperature stable, truly off-the-shelf regenerative medicine with the potential to drive tissue healing in conditions affecting millions of patients globally. The key to PEP’s efficacy and accessibility is Rion’s proprietary manufacturing process, which maintains exosome bioactivity and yields PEP as a powder that is pure, potent, and stable at room temperature for prolonged periods. This enables PEP to be administered in a wider range of clinical settings without the need for highly specialized equipment or infrastructure – a unique feature for regenerative medicine, typically requiring specialized tertiary care centers for storage and administration. Rion has established clinical-grade PEP CGMP manufacturing with customized formulations and routes of administration to target specific tissues and diseases.
