Understanding the difference is crucial. “Biologics” encompasses a wide range of therapies derived from living organisms – proteins, cells, tissues, even blood. “Biogenics,” however, is even broader, referring to anything *produced* by a living organism, from plant resins to methane gas. While all biological products are biogenic, not all biogenic materials are regulated medical products. This distinction is vital, as it opens the door to a vast spectrum of interventions falling under the “biologics” umbrella.
