CUVL vs RCEL Comparison

Clinuvel distributes a single product, Scenesse, the only approved treatment for phototoxic reactions specifically associated with a rare genetic disease called erythropoietic protoporphyria. EPP causes extreme pain or burns from brief exposure to light, affecting a patient's quality of life. Scenesse is a patented dissolvable implant, comparable in size with a rice grain, injected underneath the skin roughly every three months for ongoing protection. The implant controls the release of a synthetic drug which promotes the production of more melanin, thereby reducing pain and increasing tolerance for light exposure. The majority of Clinuvel's earnings stem from Europe and the US.

Avita is largely a single product company. Its RECELL system is an innovative burn treatment device which creates Spray-on Skin from a small skin sample within 30 minutes, thus avoiding or reducing the need for skin grafts. It's approved for the treatment of adult and paediatric patients in the US and an expanded indication for soft-tissue reconstruction. It is currently used in most of the 140 US burn centers. Despite having product approval in Australia, Canada, and China, Avita is not actively marketing in those territories and focussing instead on the US region, although international sales, particularly in Japan, are growing. Avita is domiciled, and has its primary listing, in the US.
