"Dina Radenkovic has set out to reshape women’s health. Gameto, her start-up based in Austin… has a product called Fertilo that reduces the time women must go through painful, hormonal injections from two weeks down to a couple of days. It’s been approved for use in several countries and is being studied now in a phase 3 clinical trial in the U.S." with first live births in late 2024.
"Fertilo works by replicating ovarian cells in a lab and using those cells to mature eggs outside of the body. It’s another example of the iSPC, or induced pluripotent stem cells, technology that has the bio-tech world so excited.
Radenkovic hopes that similar technology can be applied to menopause in the future and lessen the dramatic hormonal shifts women experience."
