Replicel

[Thinning87]

No problem, Thinning87!

Hopefully Replicel will provide us with some interesting and exciting results. I understand that there are some here on the forums that aren't all too hopeful so far as Replicel are concerned. However, whilst my knowledge about their current progress is (admittedly) wanting, so far as I can tell the science sounds promising...

Ah well, we got a couple years ahead of us in which we hopefully will hear some developments. I don't really believe any of the timelines out there (especially Replicel being available in 2015... yeah right!) but if we have at least a bit of luck, at least one of the the new treatments will be confirmed for realease at some point in the future, and combined with a good HT it'd be a great advancement.

It's under "Hair Loss", "Hair Loss FAQ's" and is near the bottom of the page...

Thank you!

Well, activity is better than no activity, so I can say I am kind of satisfied. We'll see what their results from Phase 2 yield.

where? I don't see it

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.

Phase II men only query answered...

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.

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.

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.

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.

I wonder if they were the poorest responders.

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.

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.
