Dr. Lott’s Head and Neck Regenerative Medicine Laboratory was recently awarded an NIH R01 grant to continue the effort. The lab is a translational lab specifically designed for bench work innovation that can be directly applied to clinical medicine. Implants will be placed in 10 canines as a part of that study, Dr. Lott said.

“We thought that this was a success—mostly,” he said. “We really wish that the medial part of the vocal fold would have completely epithelialized. But we had excellent functional results.” He said his team is confident that the lessons learned from this study will help to ensure complete epithelialization and even better functional results in the larger preclinical study. Success with this ongoing study, he said, will enable a human clinical trial.
