Medical devices, substrates and biologic therapies for bone repair and guided tissue regeneration are disclosed. More particularly, bone graft substitutes and bone void fillers which comprise a porous collagen matrix and calcium deficient hydroxyapatite ceramic granules for delivery of osteoinductive or other therapeutic agents are disclosed.

A bone regeneration material has a cotton-wool like structure formed of a plurality of electrospun fibers that contain bound BMP-2 through β-TCP binding peptide. The electrospun biodegradable fiber contains 25-65 vol % of β-TCP particles distributed in the fiber such that a portion of the β-TCP particles is exposed on a surface of the electrospun fiber and the remaining portion of the β-TCP particles is buried in the fiber. β-TCP binding peptides that are fused with BMP-2 are bound to the β-TCP particles so that BMP-2 is tethered to β-TCP particles on the surface of the fibers. Upon implantation of the bone regeneration material in a bone defect site of a human body, BMP-2 that are tethered to β-TCP particles on the surface of the bone regeneration material promotes proliferation and differentiation of cells at the bone defect site.
