Abstract: The present invention is directed to bone graft compositions suitable for administration to the body via a cannula, where the compositions contain mineralized collagen particles and a fluid biocompatible carrier having the mineralized collagen particles substantially uniformly distributed there through, which particles contain bound mineralized collagen fibrils substantially uniformly distributed there through and a binder for the fibrils; and to methods of making such particles.

Abstract: A collagen device is prepared by mixing collagen with purified water for a period of time sufficient to form a mixture. The pH of the mixture is adjusted to a pH level sufficient to substantially solubilize the collagen. A first predetermined amount of the mixture is placed into a container. The mixture is subject to a lyophilizing process and formed into a collagen device. The collagen device is also cross-linked. The collagen device has a plurality of pores wherein a majority of the pores have a diameter of less than 10 ?m. To use the collagen device as an implant to replace, reinforce or strengthen bodily tissue, or to act as an adhesion barrier, the collagen device is placed in contact with bodily tissue and that contact is maintained until the collagen device is substantially resorbed within the bodily tissue.

Abstract: This invention relates to local administration of a bone-forming agent and at least one anti-resorptive agent to treat osteoporosis and related disorders.

Abstract: Methods and implant devices for use in tissue repair. The implant devices include resorbable, swellable implant bodies, formed from a dehydrated crosslinked biocompatible polymer. The implant devices are capable of swelling after insertion into tissues to become anchored in place.

Abstract: A drug delivery device comprising a single phase matrix of a rigid polymer and a flexible polymer, useful for sustained release of a pharmaceutically active ingredient, as well as a method for employing the same, are disclosed.
