This sounds good, but I think CB has similar properties...so we may not miss anything with this.

True, but these guys were 4 years ahead of Cosmo Pharmaceuticals and had a non-steroidal anti-androgen, which may have had a better long-term safety profile!
It makes you wonder how many potential treatments are out there that never see the light of day due to a lack of funding!

Indeed, it is just like RU, or ASCJ9, or PSI, even more potent 5AR2 inhibitors stronger than fin were not released (turosteride). Moreso than funding, IMO, it is just that there seems to be limited interest in MPB from pharma.
On top of that, you have to remember, this is an antiandrogen, and the primary effect is going to be retention or slowing down of hair loss. I think you will agree that the money to be made in MPB treatments is in growth agents that deliver consistent visible results (not minox), so from a business perspective, I don't think it is that surprising.

Yeah very true!
The truth is though that we are at least 10 years away from something so groundbreaking!
