An implantable matrix is provided, the matrix having a porous interior configured to release a growth factor and to allow influx of at least progenitor, bone and/or cartilage cells therein; and a biodegradable membrane disposed on the porous interior, the biodegradable membrane being less porous than the porous interior and configured to retain the growth factor and release the growth factor from the porous interior as the biodegradable membrane degrades at or near the target tissue site. In some embodiments, a method for making the implantable collagen matrix is provided, the method comprising: providing a porous collagen layer configured to release a growth factor and to allow influx of at least progenitor, bone and/or cartilage cells therein, and disposing a collagen membrane on the porous collagen layer, the collagen membrane being less porous than the porous collagen layer and configured to retain the growth factor. |
