Also found this, lol. Per the "suggestions for management" section, apparently they don't tell their employees very much information either. At least we aren't the only ones being kept in the dark!

Wow Joker, you give Sherlock Holmes a run for his money!
LMAO

Well done! Keep up this great investigative work

Also the director of clinical and regulatory affairs for Aderans is participating in a summit about clinical trial documentation. Not particularly helpful to us, but I guess it shows that Aderans is active in the community.

Just wish they would hurry up.... :/

Hey guys, not sure exactly when this is from, but ARI hired this company in December of 2011, so the testimonial had to come from sometime in 2012:

"We're a 10 year old biotech that's still a couple years away from having a commercial product."

That sounds pretty consistent with the 2014 timeline, although it's unclear if that means having a product on shelves or just having a final product to continue testing. I would *guess* that it means having a product on shelves since they are testing different formulations of products already, but it could mean that there are a couple more years of Phase 2 before a commercial product will go to Phase 3.

Anyways, it's a new piece of substantive info that I thought I would share to get your thoughts.

yes, and the waiting game still on!!!

Yes and the cells also come together to form new hair follicles just like Replicel found.

So no reason why this couldnt be combined with a HT to give natural density that cant be typically achieved by a conventional hair transplant.

That's what we want, a cell based hair transplant that can offer an unlimited supply of growth.

Aderans Research Institute: Your own hair, back again. That’s the allure of Atlanta-based Aderans’ Ji Gami hair growth process. Patients donate hair-containing skin from their neck, and Aderans cultivates the hair follicle-forming cells. These cells are then injected back into the patient.

The cells stimulate new hair production in dormant hair follicles, working on male or female pattern baldness, said Aderans Chief Executive Ken Washenik. They have been tested in animals and are now being tested in people.

“When we inject this mixture of dermal and epidermal cells … we find that the cells intercalate (integrate) into existing hair follicle structures and reprogram them or turn them back on,” Washenik said at his company’s presentation.

Aderans has performed Phase 1 safety studies on Ji Gami, and has now started Phase 2 studies, looking for effectiveness.

I guess they are still looking where they can find any effectiveness in any trail subject.

Desmond,

I sent Dr W. an email last Friday, asking if he had any idea of a time-frame in mind, but just looking at their website and PR releases I don't see anything happening for at least a couple more years.

I sent mail t Aderans some time ago with some questions including yours and I never got an answer.

Let's hope he does reply. Spencer also mentioned last week that he's going to try and record an interview with him. Let's hope we get some kind of info before xmas!

At least Spencer should try to get the date when Aderans will release some information.

You're amazing brother

Dan,

Now that is about the most intelligent response anyone can really say, try to keep what you have until something comes along, its bound to happen some day, but surely not in the near future.

Lol thanks man, BUT I did leave out an important part, which is, some people may need to search past conventional methods to achieve this. There is a reason people do this, usually due to the traditional approved meds not being effective or result in sides. My advice is educate and empower yourself, read the studies and move forward at your own risk, but there are definitely some good alternatives out there, problem is finding the right place to get them.

[inspects]

I feel confident in saying that if you are in the beginning stages of hair loss, you should have some hope. I dream of unlimited donor supply one day, but I have a good feeling I can control my hair loss until then.

When did Aderans claim they would start Phase 3 in 2013? It doesn't say that on the clinical trials site, does it?

[hellouser]

Why would they go back to Phase II or extend them when theyre finishing up and claimed they would start Phase III in 2013 as well as the clinical trials site stating that as well?
