| abstract |
The present invention relates to a material having osteoinductive and osteoconductive properties in vivo comprising a ceramic carrier, preferably containing calcium phosphate, and an active agent, preferably an osteoinductive protein / peptide or a drug, and a polymer, wherein the active agent is homogeneously coated on the carrier and within the polymer, which is preferably a degradable polymer. Said polymer modulates the release kinetic of the active agent and protects same from degradation to prolong the half-life in vivo. Moreover, the present invention relates to a method for the production of a material having osteoinductive and osteoconductive properties in vivo. |
