'replicel news release'
Dr. Jerry Shapiro to Present RepliCel Data to European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology in Poland.
VANCOUVER, BC - May 23, 2013 - RepliCel Life Sciences Inc. (the "Company" or "RepliCel") (OTCBB: REPCF) (CDNX: RP) reports that one of its founders, Dr. Jerry Shapiro, MD, FRCPC, will be presenting RepliCel's Phase I safety data and the concept of using dermal sheath cup cells for hair growth at the 10th European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology (EADV) Spring Symposium in Cracow, Poland on May 25th at 12:00 PM local time. The focus of the conference is on the "burden of skin disease".
"The RepliCel data from its RCH-01 Phase I trial treating pattern baldness is very promising," commented Dr. Shapiro, one of RepliCel's founders. "The trial provided the Company with safety and early efficacy data supporting a progression to the next phase. RepliCel's proposed Phase II dose-ranging study is designed to confirm the efficacy of injections of RCH-01 in over 100 male participants and will provide over 288 data points as compared to 16 in the Phase I trial. The Phase II trial should determine what the optimum dose is to promote hair growth," concluded Dr. Shapiro.

Better than Aderans who seem dead?
Only thing is, Dr David Hall said a year ago could look at 2015 release but their timeline states that in 2015 Phase 2 will only be finished - so once again (as has been happening consistently for the past 30 years), the "5 year" mark is being pushed back.
Now we're looking at 2017, I remember 3 years ago it was the same story with 2015, no doubt in 24 months the buzz-year on release will be '2020' and so on and so on.

Do not be so pessimistic about that. Not everything happens in time we would like. These schedules are altered, as it is not child's play and are being invested millions of dollars that can not be thrown away.
It is normal to happen this kind of delay particularly when working with clinical trials. See AIDS or cancer occurs in the same away despite the focus here is the recovery of hair instead of diseases that lead to death.

They just closed a private placement for CAD$509,502 last month. They'll probably do the same again in the (near) future.

That's why I added "They'll probably do the same again in the (near) future". But do keep in mind phase II is generally way cheaper than phase III.

More number of test subjects is the main reason I think, Phase 2 is usually a few dozen subjects, phase 3 a few hundred
