Because clinical trials are time consuming, expensive, and subject to strict controls and regulation. If you want to fiddle with the formula or test something new, it's easier, quicker, cheaper and safer to do it in pre-clinical work.

Later it says, "and the growth and use of these stem cells for the treatment of a variety of medical conditions (including hair loss)." In my opion, this also does not bode well for Monday.

Maybe. Maybe not. I honestly don't know why everybody's getting so worked up because we simply DO NOT KNOW at this stage.

The retraction could be something as simple as someone alerted the regulatory authorities and the authorities had words with Replicel. Happens all the time. And to be honest, those stock 'research' reports were laughable and dishonest and this retraction has been a long time coming.

It could also be that they have seen no sign of regrowth whatsoever and are facing an imminent disaster of funding that will probably put the company out of business. Hard to see how they could raise funds after that. If there are no results, the best this company can hope for is to be bought out by Aderans IMO.

But nobody here knows which it is, or indeed if it's something completely different. So there's no point everybody getting worked up until the results are released. Read the results and THEN bitch and moan, if that's what you wanna do.

I'm starting to believe there won't be a cure in my lifetime (I'm in my 20s).

Okay, if they don't release the results over the weekend (and they probably won't), they will be released either Monday morning prior to the market open or after the market closes. Based upon the retraction, the stock could sell off heavily first thing in the morning.

If the results are actually decent, they have a moral obligation to release it over the weekend or in the morning pre-open, otherwise the shares could plummet in the AM, and then shoot back up again Tuesday. In order to avoid this, Replicel should disclose results pre-open. This would cut down on needless volatility.

I agree. I smell a class action lawsuit if they **** this up more than they already have so far.

Of course there will....Give it another 5-10 years. And if there isnt a cure by then, just give it another 5-10. But just in case there still isnt one, just give it another 5-10 years..................

Sorry if it's already been mentioned, but the treatment has already proven safe, so it seems they will continue with their phases, and hopefully they have at least some results in some patients to be able to work with for the next phase. I'm a little confused in what I'm gathering from you all, is it that they haven't shown results yet or is it that there are no good results?

[sausage]

Does not look good.

Oh well, Monday to be sure.

We are all going to be bald forever!

It's always 5 more years. I'm really bummed over this distressing news. I reallly thought this was the cure we hair loss sufferers were waiting for.

[alanrudy]

Think I will do micro pigmentation then. Well, there's still hoping for Histogen. Based on that before/after pic I saw, they should be able to develop a product within 5 years just from that. Even if it proves not effective for everyone, it should be a product if it has a chance of working that well.

What's really sickening is that all over the world, stem cells are being used all over the world to treat and cure various diseases RIGHT NOW, yet for hair loss, it seems like we're stuck with these companies being bogged down in extensive clinical trials and by the time that these companies are done with these clinical trials, we're all gonna be old men and will have lost precious years of our lives due to this hair loss disease. And these other stem cell treatments (to do such things as repair heart tissue and heal skin from burns) are performed by doctors in hospitals right now, not developed and attempted to be sold at a cost by commercial companies. Most doctors it seems won't perform these specialized stem cell treatments for hair loss probably because they see it as simply a "cosmetic issue", which is such a pile of horseshit. Hair loss is a disease that drastically and negatively affects nearly every aspect of the sufferer's life, and it really should be treated as such. What I wish would happen (and I'd bet it might) is that a doctor outside of the Western world will use some type of stem cell treatment that is very non-invasive, simpler than how complex we're lead to believe the process of hair loss actually is, and will grow a helluva lot more hair than the pathetic current treatments like the so-called Big 3. I've actually e-mailed several doctors outside the Western world about this; doctors that I've seen treat and somewhat cure diseases a hell of a lot more complicated than hair loss. I don't know, I just refuse to accept living with this hair loss and I will do everything I can to fight it. And I'm not just gonna sit back and wait years upon years while these companies plod through clinical trials only to have a viable treatment or cure for hair loss in 10 years. Sorry about ranting guys, but this hair loss disease is really something that we should have much better options for TODAY, and not 5-10 years from now. VictimOfDHT, I know you've echoed some of these sentiments in the past, and watch bro, I'm gonna have the same people on here on my tail arguing with me to death over this in literally a few hours!
