What is the link about ? Care to elaborate? The translate option doesn't help much either

I agree that if they move to phase 3 that's a good sign.
But a lot of phase 2 companies say they're going to move to phase 3 but then it never happens. We have to wait to see if they actually do it.

The link was broken - should've been http://www.haarproblemen.nl/research...ten-voor-2015/ which is meant to show a before/after for SM04554. It's bogus though - the picture is of a H&W HT https://hassonandwong.com/hair-trans.../patient-1890/

There hasn't been a single company with a hairloss product to talk about Phase III since Proscar in the mid-90's(although you can count DUT last year but that is an archaic drug as well).
If a company is talking about Phase III with a hairloss drug, it is massive news for the industry, it all but guarentees a new product on the market as it means they had great efficacy in the 2nd phase.
Only products close to this are BIM(which is in another Phase IIb), Histogen(which looks to skip phase III by using other countries) and of course SM which is still fairly mysterious.

Yup. The other thing that intrigues me about SM is that their participants had higher norwood levels, so if they're reporting efficacy then it should work for a good number of balding folks.

What will this do for a Norwood 3? I'm currently a NW 2.22222222. Thinning getting worse on top. Will I benefit from SM04554?

No one knows for sure yet mate. Some people are optimistic but with no real reason. If they move into phase 3 then as others have pointed out that would be a good enough reason for optimism.
Stay neutral would be my advice and don't expect miracles

Is there ANY chance that SM will be able to skip phase III? And when will their extended study end? March?

In my eyes, no, but who am I to really say. But wait for the 21st century cures act to actually pass before you get too hopeful. We also have yet to see how effective SM is, so everything is up in the air.
