Overview
Omnio is a private, preclinical-stage biotech developing a novel recombinant plasminogen therapy for chronic wounds, starting with diabetic foot ulcers. The company's approach aims to address the underlying biological failure in chronic wounds by clearing damaged tissue, fighting infection, and promoting skin regeneration via a simple subcutaneous injection. With GMP manufacturing and clinical trial applications planned for 2026-2027, Omnio is positioning itself to address a multi-billion euro market with high unmet need.
Technology Platform
Recombinant production of human plasminogen (Rec-PLG) for therapeutic application. The protein is designed to restart the stalled natural healing cascade in chronic wounds by performing multiple functions: debridement of damaged tissue, fighting infection (including antibiotic-resistant bacteria), and promoting skin regeneration.

Risk Factors
Competitive Landscape
Omnio competes in the advanced wound care market, which includes advanced dressings, negative pressure wound therapy, skin substitutes (e.g., amniotic membranes), and growth factor therapies (e.g., Regranex). Its differentiation lies in its multi-functional, endogenous protein approach targeting the root cause of stalled healing, contrasting with single-mechanism or palliative options. It will face competition from both large medtech companies and other biotechs developing novel biologics.
