Where are the phase IIb results for Bimatoprost?

[It's2014ComeOnAlready]

Pfizer sold it to Johnson & Johnson.

...in 2006

It's tough to see how this is bad for us. Pfizer wants to have its HQ in Dublin, where Allergan is based, to save money on corporate US taxes. They also want more branded drugs.

Ppl need to relax here. Allergan was a huge company with a vast drug pipeline and portfolio. Now it is ever expanding with all these acquisitions and so forth. Sure they have the capital to finance trials to get bim through, but unlike samumed, hairloss/bim is just one of their many many many areas of drug development. Thus it will be a much more winded process getting the drug to market. I wish it didnt take as long as it has been taking, but I have a hard time believing that bim is bunk considering that we know it does produce an effect on hair growth (without seeing the last trials results it is known that bim does affect hair/eyelashes at the very least) and that they mentioned it in their presentation months ago is solid evidence that there is something there. Maybe it wont make a nw 6 a nw 1 but anyone expecting that from
Bim had much to high of expectations to begin with. I support 2014s view on bim, but for now we need to just chill bc well know more in a few days from now

Im not so optimistic about bims future, and i have a question maybe some of you guys can answer. Is allergen/activis proceeding w any trials for setipiprant? I havent heard anything about that and thats worrisome to me also. we all think bim and set will be a one-two punch if released, but if bim is on hold and set never progressed then that's bad news

IND has been applied for Seti. Once approved they have confirmed being able to go straight into phase 2 trials.

[Tomtom21]

Like I said its a huge company with lots of operations... The drug development unfortunately takes time l, we just need to be patient (that way we dont stress the remaining hair we have left out of our scalps) for them to come through with these drugs

[champpy]

Thanks for that Jaym, i didnt know that

Very interesting, hopefully they shed some light on this, either way we were promised the results in Q1 2016(whether it went forward or not) so we will find out soon how the drug actually did.

I actually remember a response that was given to a poster who had inquired about the trial results. He was told that the trial results would be discussed at their R&D day, which is a yearly event. It's in this thread. I don't feel like looking for it right now, but it's here.

Do you mean this one? I received it on February 2nd 2015.

Hello,

The study results will be posted on ClinicalTrials.gov next year. Please check the web site for the results in 2016.

Thanks, nope that wasn't it though. I'd find it, but I really don't feel like searching through 90+ pages of Bim threads.

[unbalding]

So we might find out how well this stuff did tomorrow? That's great news! Between this and SM I think we are finally going to enter a new phase of treatment after twenty years of being stuck with finasteride and minoxidil.

[Arieux]

I am not sure if that was mentioned here, but I've just seen that there will be Bimatoprost poster presentation during that congress:

Bimatoprost: a Hair Growth Promoting
Prostamide Analogue, Stimulates Prostamide
Synthetic Enzymes, While Inhibiting
Prostaglandin Synthesis in Hair Follicles and
Dermal Papilla Cells
Mohammad Shalbaf, DVM, PhD, PgCHEP, FHEA,
MEHRS | United Kingdom

Info from final program.

And yes unbalding, I think that we are very close to the new treatment(s).

If they don't post any results about it tomorrow, it's officially dead
