Gosselies (Wallonia, Belgium), May 31, 2023 - 7.30 am CEST - TheraVet (ISIN:

BE0974387194 - ticker: ALVET), a pioneering company in the management of osteoarticular

diseases in pets, announces the commercial launch of BIOCERA-VET® Combo-Clean, a new reference for BIOCERA-VET, its comprehensive bone substitutes range, in Europe and

United Kingdom. BIOCERA-VET® Combo-Clean will be available on our website (www.bioceravet.com).

Infections can be a major concern when it comes to orthopedic surgeries and can occur in 5% of these surgeries. In order to prevent damage to the bone, a treatment with antibiotics and removal of infected implants and materials is generally recommended. Also, preventive treatment can occur for high-risk surgeries (e.g., open fracture from a trauma or bite).

BIOCERA-VET® Combo-Clean is the solution to bring locally high concentration of antibiotics and to ensure stability thanks to its mechanical strength. To manage bone infections, it can be mixed with the 7 most commonly used antibiotics (covering all the most common germs involved in bone infection). In addition to its properties as bone substitute (i.e., mechanical strength, osteointegration and osteoconduction), and superior ergonomics (i.e., easy-to-prepare, highly injectable), BIOCERA-VET® Combo-Clean features optimal antibiotic release profile enabling a local but also long-lasting antimicrobial action for up to 30 days.

The combination of all these properties makes of BIOCERA-VET® Combo-Clean the first-of-its- kind sustained antibiotic releasing bone substitute.

1 MIC: Minimum Inhibitory Concentration is the lowest concentration of an antibacterial agent which, under strictly controlled in vitro conditions, completely prevents visible growth of the test strain of an organism
