Eclipse Regenesis
Private Company
Total funding raised: $12M
Overview
Eclipse Regenesis is developing the first device-based therapy aimed at regenerating intestinal tissue in patients with Short Bowel Syndrome (SBS), a severe and costly condition. Its Eclipse XL1 System is an implantable coil that applies gentle pressure to the intestine to stimulate natural growth (distraction enterogenesis), addressing the root cause of malabsorption. The company is currently conducting a feasibility study in partnership with leading pediatric hospitals and operates as a private, pre-revenue entity focused on bringing this regenerative approach to market.
Technology Platform

Competitive Landscape
Eclipse competes against the standard of care: lifelong Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN) and drug therapy (teduglutide). Its primary differentiator is its aim to regenerate functional intestine, a structural solution versus a management one. It also faces future competition from other regenerative approaches (e.g., tissue engineering, stem cell therapies) and improved pharmacologics, but currently has a first-mover advantage in device-based intestinal lengthening.
