    Bristol Myers/Squibb

    Bristol Myers/Squibb is conducting a nationwide study to determine the effectiveness and safety of an investigational medication for male pattern hair loss. They are recruiting patients for this trial in several cities across the country...In this study, the medication will be applied to the surface of the scalp for a duration of 30 weeks with monthly visits to a dermatologist. It is being conducted from several states across the nation, and they would like volunteers who qualify to fill out the form below regarding being a part of the study. This compound is chemically similar to Minoxidil (Rogaine) in that it works by opening ion channels within cells. However, the compound being tested has been shown to be 1000 times stronger than Minoxidil as a channel opener / potential hair growth stimulant.

    Are there any news about them, this article was from 2007 or 2008.

    I would love to know where you found that article..

    I did quiet a thorough search of their site and couldn't find anything on it.. my impression was that they deal with diseases and MPB isn't considered a disease..

    My opinion even if they were conducting some type of research.. it probably bombed out..

        It's from hair loss talk, under clinical trials.
        I also emailed japanese company R-Tech that are developing new drug, they're in phase 2b, about their results and they responded that can't right now.

        Does someone know name of company which is also doing research on AA, woman in video said they were able to grow hair on human, only it was grey and it would take couple months to reach it's natural color?

              Mpb is genetic...I'd say it falls under the incorrectly functioning organ system due to genetic error category

                        I prefer to look it as a disorder - let's be honest, you're still healthy even with MPB - unless there is some serious psychological trauma going on there regarding it.

                              MPB IS a god damn disease. It's one of the worst, EVER. It's more like cancer. Only thing it affects a person differently. It affects the the mind, the mental state of a person, and then it will affect them physically eventually, because after so many years of constant stress, anxiety and worrying the body will succumb. MPB is one SOB disease that ****s up your whole life and future. It's a source of constant suffering that never stops. It may not kill you but it DOES kill your life.

                              Like I said before, MPB should be considered a disability, at least in those who are seriously mentally affected by it because IT IS.
