Bone Solutions Announces Five New Patents Awarded in FY25, Further Enhancing Its Core Mg OSTEOCRETE Technology
COLLEYVILLE, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Bone Solutions Inc., an orthobiologics technology company located in Colleyville, Texas, announced today its fifth patent awarded this year from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) related to Mg OSTEOCRETE, a portfolio of patents that includes current and future configurations, as well as novel delivery systems. "Bone Solutions is furthering its mission to improve patient outcomes." These five patents further expand Bone Solutions' industry footprint and allow surgeons and patients to further benefit from the advantages of the Bone Solutions proprietary magnesium-based technology. Mg OSTEOCRETE and Mg OSTEOINJECT (an injectable version of the product) are fast-setting bone substitutes that remodel into bone over time through creeping substitution, meaning they provide needed support to the defect or void during the healing process while transforming into bone at an optimal rate. 'We are pleased to announce the addition of five new patents supplementing our various technologies, ensuring our continued growth and profitability for the company's future,' said Drew Diaz, CEO of Bone Solutions. 'By leveraging our existing technology, Bone Solutions is furthering its mission to improve patient outcomes through our superior magnesium-based orthopedic solutions." The magnesium component of Mg OSTEOCRETE is the significant differentiator from other bone substitutes on the market. The crystallization reaction from magnesium oxide and the blend of phosphate-based materials allows for ideal osteoconductivity of the product. As a result, Mg OSTEOCRETE and Mg OSTEOINJECT set and cure in situ without migration. The material stimulates cell adhesion, proliferation, and formation of the bone extracellular matrix by osteoblast cells, thus promoting bone growth. In addition to the superior biological performance of the material, the handling characteristics and formulation are ideal for clinical use. Ready for use after only 30 seconds of mixing, the material is moldable or injectable and is cohesive and adhesive to the area it fills. Once implanted, the material sets quickly, is drillable after only two minutes, and is also radiopaque. Mg OSTEOCRETE and Mg OSTEOINJECT are currently being distributed to facilities and surgical centers nationwide for immediate clinical use. About Bone Solutions Inc. Bone Solutions Inc. is a specialized medical device company dedicated to improving clinical outcomes through biologically safe, fully resorbable magnesium-based orthopedic implant solutions, with a focus on addressing complex procedures and cost reduction. The company is developing various new orthopedic technologies within its FDA-cleared magnesium-based platform.

GAINESVILLE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cade Museum co-founder and board chair Phoebe Cade Miles has been featured in Forbes' new '50 Over 50' list of women who have not only made great accomplishments in their careers, but who are creating their greatest achievements after the age of 50. "My advice for anyone nearing the half-century mark is that your most significant contributions are likely to be ahead of you, not behind you!' Share Forbes recently released the 2025 ' 50 Over 50 ' list in conjunction with Mika Brzezinski, the founder of Know Your Value and co-host of MSNBC's Morning Joe.

Recognized for inspiring and equipping future inventors and visionaries through the Cade Museum for Creativity and Invention and the annual Cade Prize for Inventivity competition for early-stage inventors, Miles amplifies her father's passion for science, the arts, and pursuing big ideas. Best known as the lead inventor of Gatorade, Dr. Robert Cade was a curious Renaissance man who thought, and taught, outside the box. His daughter, Phoebe Cade Miles, aims to inspire and educate the way he did.

Inscribed in the rotunda of the Cade Museum, lines from Tennyson's Ulysses read: 'I am a part of all that I have met; Yet all experience is an arch wherethrough Gleams that untraveled world, whose margin fades... forever when I move.' For Miles, the poem illustrates that the next great adventure awaits. 'Rather than lamenting the passing of youth, I find it more exciting to embrace the experiences that come with each passing year. It is these experiences that provide the broad and deep foundation for all future accomplishments. My advice for anyone nearing the half-century mark is that your most significant contributions are likely to be ahead of you, not behind you!' For the full list visit: The Cade Museum for Creativity and Invention in Gainesville, Florida, is committed to transforming communities by inspiring and equipping future inventors, entrepreneurs, and visionaries.
