Replicel

[Desmond84]

Replicel definitely has the potential to work and give us 20% regrowth, but now that they've fallen behind even more, this pushes their release date even further; somewhere around Q3 2018- Q1 2019...

I can't stop thinking wether that's too late for most of us! I think we should really focus on Aderans for the next few months, since if they really do go into Phase 3 we may REALLY have this available by the end of 2015!

So wasn't there an upcoming update on the 25th or something like that? What happened?

Yeah, they were attempting to convince some biotech investors that their results were really much better than they appeared. It was at some biopartnering conference. Hopefully they didn't get laughed out of the room.

Guaranteed they showed the investors data that wasnt shown to us.

I hope so - because if they don't have something good, and with aderans only working marginally well for 4 out of 10 guys, we're running out of options in a hurry.

I think Histogen might be the only realistic shot we have at a good treatment in the near future. But, they've still have to report out on their trial before we know anything about what it can do.

No women

Replicel seem to have dropped women from their trials, phase II shows that they're only planning to recruite male test subjects. Wonder why they dropped women? Thought these type of treatments usually worked better on them lol.

I wonder if they were the poorest responders.

If women were suffering from baldness in the same numbers as men, we would have had a cure 50 years ago.

Society doesnt give a shit about mens health.

Maybe. I'm just curious about the reason behind removing women from the next trial. There has to be a rationale for it. The only thing I can think of is women aren't responding as well and sinking the overall results.

Personally, this is how I feel in regards to removing women the trials:

- GOOD. Focus on men for once.
- Potentially bad since it could mean a poor product... or perhaps it was just not working for women.

It's not the most polite thing to say but I feel the same way. Women do suffer but his is predominately a male affliction.

Honestly, Bill Burr nailed it;

I got to tell you this, because I’m envious of women, okay? I’m not saying your problems get solved but at least they are taken seriously, you know. I think we 1800 numbers, you got ribbons, there’s groups; people give a shit. Anything happens to a guy, it’s just considered funny. Some woman cut her husband’s dick off, threw in the garbage disposal and turned it on. People thought it was hilarious, I mean, hey, hey, stumpy, nobody cares.

Do you think if a guy removed a woman’s titty and threw it in the drier anybody will be joking about it the next day? The entire country would grind to a halt; it’d be a moment of silence; the NFL would have some special colored headband everybody had to wear for an entire month. The most a-feminine color they could possibly come up with.

Phase II men only query answered...

Replicel wrote a response on their official site... something about men being easier to recruit, hence a faster process and a quicker foray into phase III approval. They also said women will not be precluded from phase III. Interesting... I am sort of paraphrasing here though. I detect a hint of confidence in all that as well. We'll see how they do in the coming months.

Sounds reasonable as well as much larger target audience. They're also behind Aderans and Histogen so they really need to pick up the pace if they want to have any kind of market share. I'll give them the benefit of doubt, lets hope for the best.
