Histogen Update - Spencer Kobren Speaks With Dr. Craig L. Ziering

[montrose]

Would these injections grow hair in a donor scar after an FUT strip surgery?

[HelpROGER]

For clarification these are two different organizations....
ISHRS and IAHRS(Spencer's)

Too bad there are no IAHRS doctors in Asia. I would be a little nervous going to a doctor who is not endorsed by Kobren, but I guess this not surgery Dr. Ziering will these doctors be trained by you?

Is Histogen seeking participants for its H.S.C. study?

Thanks.

Regarding administration of the HSC... Perhaps they may develop a topical solution (I doubt it however), in the research released at the beginning of January by University of P the issue highlighted the issue as a problem of 'faulty stem cells'. We can be exposed to androgens for decades before we even start going bald; the issue is with the 'factory' that is the stem cells, we just need a compound to fire up the stem cells (easier said than done), and get the factory stem cells to start churning out DP/PROTG cells again producing healthy hair.

No not at this time .

Is there any way by which to be notified when and if Histogen is seeking subjects for an upcoming clinical trial of H.S.C.?

Thank you.

I have a few questions for you Dr. Ziering. First off, do you believe with confidence that HSC has the capability of restoring a full head of hair to original or at least close to original density? Second, if the results of the original trails of HSC showing thicker hairs and a higher hair count were a result of restoring "dormant" follicles do you believe a transplant would impact the dormant follicles of the scalp and therefore hurt HSC's ability to work efficiently? Last, will there be a trail where you would consider including trailists who have taken propecia?

Thank you so much for taking an active stance on this forum, it means a lot to me and I would imagine to a lot of other users as well.

[HairTalk]

I can let Spencer know.

Yes, please; thank you. If you need any information from me to forward, for this purpose, please just let me know.

Thanks again, Dr. Ziering.

Hello!!
I have a question for you Dr. Ziering.
Are you going to increas together dosage of HSC and number of injections, or just one thing from that.

[UK_]

Acell may be acting in a similar fashion to the components of the HSC that directly create angiogenesis, instead of using the VEGF etc could the component to promote the angiogenesis actually be Acell?

i.e. Acell+WNT7A+PRP

Hell Dr Ziering.

First thank-you for spending so much time answering all of the questions you receive on here.

I have a question which I hope you can answer. Do you know what area was being measured in Histogens first trial? It had statistics of an increase of 84 hairs after 1 year on patients who got the hsc injections!

I am trying to find over what area/2 that data is about. 2 cm2 1 inch/2 ??? etc http://www.histogen.com/aboutus/news_events.htm (about 1/5 down the page is what I refer to)

also if you are allowed or feel confident. how many hairs per cm/2 Histogen may be able to produce when all is said and done?

I dont expect it to be able to recreate original density but do you think 50 new hairs/cm2 is in the ballpark??

Thank you Dr. Ziering

[CAlex]

thank you for posting the area in which the data was regarding :P

im new, so does that mean histogen was able to produce roughly 56 NEW hairs per cm/2?

If so that is extraordinary and I cant wait to see what happens with the next set of trials results. Even if 56 new hairs/cm2 is the max number that this hsc formula is ever able to produce imo that is still such a breakthrough. If those numbers can be reproduced consistently over a larger area it would by far be the best treatment ever available

[UK_]

The area measured is 1.47 cm2

This is why im so excited about HSC - nothing has ever, proven to produce so much hair in such a small area, just imagine if this compound is applied to say a larger sq area of the scalp.

[RichardDawkins]

Even right at this point they could easily put it on the market, thats really something.

My prediction or hopes are, if it can produce this yield right in this early tests, it should be possible to reverse the hair status to at least 90% or your original density.

But i dont know and i dont think it will work on extensive scar tissue. But if it works i say Respect

Dr. Ziering,
regarding trials for women, will the treatment be based on the same principles as for men?
Will you be waiting for men trials to end first or?
If trials for men finish with good results, why women couldn't take the same treatment (as is the case with Rogaine 5%)?
More and more women have problems with hair loss, not to mention children. It's even more devastating. So we'd also like the treatment the soonest possible.
Thank you
