Aderans

[greatjob!]

Well I was a little uneasy about Aderans because of their relationship with Bosley and Hair Club, but If this procedure doesn't involve any artistry and is simply injecting cells, assuming they get everything worked out in trails, then I think this is great news. Even if any of the other companies develop a solution they are still going to have to deal with the logistics of distributing it, whereas Aderans already has the infrastructure in place. Never thought my hopes for a treatment would involve Bosley and Hair Club, lol.

No, you're right:

Unlikely, 3 yrs tops.

To the best of my knowledge, the most recent Aderans press release states that the company only completed the enrollment of a key Phase 2 protocol, not Phase 2 in its entirety. The press release also states that Aderans is preparing to test additional variants coming down the pipeline. Perhaps these new screening locations are just more Phase 2 protocols/additional variants?

Don't get me wrong, Phase 3 would be a dream come true... but I think I've been in this game long enough to learn that we should NEVER expect the best case-scenario.

Really hoping JRQ can get us some more information tomorrow, but I'm afraid it's just going to be another extension of the deadline or a miscommunication on the website. Let's hope not!!!

I will 100% be contacting their Atlanta HQ tomorrow and find out. You are right, we should never hope for best-case. I remember how excited I was when Phase 2 was supposed to end, then they extended it, and extended it lol. However, I sincerely do believe this is their final round of Phase 2. Throughout this process, they have always kept their clinical trials site open for enrollment, however at the end of January, the officially closed it for Phase 2. I'm pretty sure this is the final run for P2....but, I'll find out tomorrow if they find me worthy of this info lol.

You can't say that as fact though. None of us really know how soon or how late a cure/solution for hair loss will come. For all we know, Replicel may improve on their Phase I trials and surprise us all with a significant improvement despite their poor results from their findings. With the number of studies/work being done on fighting hair loss, I don't see any reason why anyone couldnt be optimistic about the future.

Even if future treatments are several or many more years away, there are still solutions on keeping the hair we have/improving it (RU, FIN, Gho, etc).

And Histogen should be safe to hope for. They have released photographs and we know it works to some degree on humans. As long as it doesn't have dangerous side effects it will come to the market.

I have already planned my vacation to singapore.

Ignore the pessimistic trolls.

Re:Screening

The screening at Radiant research centres cant be for Phase 3 - they have to submit their completed Phase 2 data first for analysis and THEN apply for a Phase 3.

I don't think there's any regulation that prohibits them from screening potential trial subjects in anticipation of the next phase of clinical trials.

I really hope that's the case, it would be so good to see a solid sign of Aderans entering Phase 3.

[JRQ]

Well, here's the scoop from what I personally found out from a test site-
It seems that it is still for Phase 2. They now want men with balding in the crown that still have a little amount of hair left. So if you qualify, call them up and check it out. You could get a free HT! Lol.

I'm pretty disappointed, but still happy to see that they're moving at a relatively fast pace. I apologize for anyone's hopes that I have now dashed. This has definitely made me decide to get a hair transplant until the surgery comes out. I really didn't want to, but oh well....more $$ down the drain lol.

Just called about this study.

You can't qualify if you've used minoxodil within the past 6 months.

Counts me out.
