This report summarizes the latest preclinical and clinical studies on injectable biomaterial therapies for myocardial infarction (MI) and peripheral artery disease (PAD). The study highlights the major challenges facing translation of these therapies to the clinic (e.g., regulatory, manufacturing, and delivery), with the purpose of increasing awareness of the barriers for translating novel biomaterial therapies for MI and PAD and facilitating more rapid translation of new biomaterial technologies.
