MIAMI, July 21, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Vivex Biologics, a leader in developing and delivering innovative allografts, today announced the commercial launch of VIA Linx™, a synthetic, self-assembling peptide matrix designed to establish a stable structural foundation for wound healing. The launch marks the newest addition to Vivex’s expanding portfolio of allograft and synthetic technologies, which spans orthopedics, interventional spine, and advanced wound care.
VIA Linx is a 510K cleared medical device indicated for the treatment of partial and full thickness wounds. Upon application, it transitions from a liquid to a semi-solid as local ionic conditions trigger self-assembly. The resulting β-sheet nanofiber network forms both a protective barrier and a provisional extracellular matrix-like scaffold, supporting the migration, adhesion, and proliferation of cells that are fundamental to the wound-healing cascade. Fully synthetic and bioabsorbable, VIA Linx is supplied as a lyophilized powder in a ready-to-use kit and can be applied during debridement, whether or not the wound is bleeding, with demonstrated results using once-weekly application in clinical experience.
Early case series and pilot studies in surgical and chronic wounds have shown favorable healing trajectories and ease of use at the point of care, including a clinical case example in which the product was used as a last resort to avoid amputation in a patient with a non-healing wound following necrotizing fasciitis. Over the course of four weekly applications, the wound progressed from a large, non-granulating defect to abundant granulation tissue, achieving closure by week five, with the patient reporting significant pain reduction and a return to normal activity.1
“VIA Linx reflects the same principle that has guided every product in our portfolio: durable healing starts with a stable structural foundation,” said Barry Salzman, Co-President and Chief Operating Officer. “VIA Linx brings that philosophy to wound care, providing clinicians with a precision tool that works at the molecular level to deliver what the body needs to heal itself. It’s a natural extension of our mission and a meaningful addition to how we support patients and providers in need of transformative solutions for conditions where tissue repair is required.”
VIA Linx joins a growing Vivex portfolio that spans musculoskeletal, spine, and wound care. The company’s flagship VIA Disc® NP supplements degenerated intervertebral discs and its VIA Form+™ cryopreserved viable bone allograft serves as a cellular bone matrix for lumbar spinal fusion. Its wound and skin care offerings include the Cygnus® family of amnion-based allografts and the VIAGENEX™ line of amniotic allografts. With VIA Linx, Vivex extends this portfolio into novel, fully synthetic self-assembling technologies, complementing its allograft and amnion-based solutions and broadening the range of tools the company can offer clinicians across the tissue repair continuum.
VIA Linx is manufactured by Arch Therapeutics, Inc. and distributed by Vivex Biologics, which acquired assets of Arch Therapeutics, Inc. in 2025.
