Follica no in the market in the next 4/5 years


" And the company has enough money to push the program through proof-of-concept toward an NDA - a path that's likely to take an accelerated development path that compresses the usual early and mid-stage trials into a 24- to 36-month window. An approval could conceivably be won in four to five years.

"What's nice about it," she adds, "is that even though this is based on breakthrough science, we are using existing compounds previously approved for systemic chronic use and reformulating them for topical acute use. We know these compounds are safe in people
."

That article hints of accelerated trials, and topical formulations. Interesting indeed.

IF FOLLICA TO LEAD ENTERS 4… 5 YEARS TO LAUNCH ITS PRODUCT IN THE MARKET I REALLY WAITS THAT ALREADY IT EXISTS OTHER COMPANIES BEFORE IN THE MARKET, AS INTERCYTEX, OR EVEN THOUGH MODELS RESULTED CARETAKERS OF DERMOBRASION GIVING GOOD, WE CANNOT WAIT FOR MORE AS MUCH TIME… I WAIT THAT THIS INFORMATION IS MISSED.

So the "trolls" vs "naive & silly": 1 : 0.

In fact its more like 100 : 0 already if you count all the silly timescales given to all the previous treatments.

and the 4/5 is probably pretty optimistic estimate. If everything goes well. Which is a bit naive to expect in a stage when we dont even know if it works.

===================================================================

Anyway lets focus on self help. Thats the only real hope.

Well maybe you are being too pessimistic. They are saying the product could get full approval in 4-5 years. It involves all the different trials, tests etc. It might be interpreted as "they have basically solved the problem, now only the administrative stuff as trials, proof of concept etc. remain, which will take about 4-5 years". Also, it could be launched earlier, when it's in phase 3 maybe. So I don't think one can conclude so much from that article. Could be positive and negative.

5 years ago that may have been a true statement. But with the Biotech revolution merging with the computer revolution, capabilities of Biotechs are doubling every year. The way technology and the understanding, actually the mastering, of science advances, 4-5 years may be a conservative estimate. There was show the other night on Discovery Hi-Def about Biotechs, it opened with the a statement about these companies have entered a new phase of medicine were they are manipulating cells to heal the body, sound familiar. What these companies have already accomplished is unbelievable, what they will be able to in 5 years is almost scary. I am 33 and looked like I am 38 because of my hair loss and thinning, but there is no doubt when I am 38 I will look 33 with my new hair. And if I take care of my body, I could enjoy the hair for 100 years.

IT's an opinion of who had write the article, not an official delcaration of the follica's team... so if an optimist is stupid if he's happy by unofficial news, a pessimist is stupid the same if he is convinced about info like this....... this forum seems a virtual game, people against people, only to say "look, i've told it to you"... it's very stupid guys....

nothing seems to be changed right now

however they said Follica has "compressed" in 24-36 months the fully procedure, this should be great to know in 1-2 year how many chances of success they have

Ok,

but how a company with only 4 full-time employees can cure the problem of badness ???

I thought, they were 20 - 25 employees at least.

The way I see it, if Follica works well we will know about it soon even if the treatment will not reach market for another 5 years. If their treatment is effective they will have pictures to show us :-)

y but, when? next year? next two? how much we must wait before to know if it works or not? I hope not exactly 5 years. If it were as you said I could accept this because the idea to know NOW that surely works and will hit market in the next 3-4 years is pretty good and acceptable. However the importance of pictures is revelant, Intercytex never shows us pics, if follica will adopt the same policy will be a negative point.

It seems that the author makes the assumption about 4-5 years. Someone should contact the author and ask if Zohar herself said 4-5 years or if the author predicted that.

stop lieing to yourself. If they had solved everything they would not be doing small biopsy study where no hair growth is expected.

And this story changes, what exactly?


This isn't a "setback." This is nothing at all.

We didn't really know anything about the timeframe before the story was printed, and we don't really know anything now either.

This stuff can only break your heart if you built up your opinion based on guesswork in the first place.





We find out when we get concrete word (not suspicions) about the exact path to FDA approval.


All this guesswork before then is just mental masturbation. Whether it's coming from ourselves or an equally-uninformed writer. Or an equally uninformed Folica statement for that matter.

I wish we knew exactly how it is done, so doctors in other countries could perform it, so we wouldn't have to wait on American FDA red tape. It uses already existing drugs, how hard could it be.

we will see no photos, thats for sure

Exactly, Biston, we have been waiting for photos for 1 decade, and noone have shown us any. Except the mice sh*t.
Many doctors have become famous talking about HM, but never have shown us a single photo.

Now Follica says the treatment could be in the market ... when? in 5 years the soonest!!! HAHAHA that figure sounds too familiar.

Don't expect photos in the meantime. They will keep us waiting FOR NOTHING, and in the meantime, they will show us NOTHING.

They will be winning: publicity.

Right now, though, the Boston-based biotech is moving on with four full-time employees with plans to scale up to 10 or 12 people, keeping everything semi-virtual as it relies on outsourcing for much of the initial investigatory work.

This looks to me that Puretech is creating VAPOUR-COMPANIES. Lots of them.
(I don't know what could be the REAL purpose of these companies, maybe tax evasion or some other ugly things...)

Anyone knows if any of these new companies have been successful? I mean, any working product? Not beautiful promises.

They only have 4 full time employees, but when I look at the board and executive team, there are no less than 6 persons!! Is this normal? Looks pretty unbalanced to me... no?

Yeah, of course they don't know everything specifically yet. But the bottom line is that he regrew A TON of hair (on longtime balded skin) just from taking Folica's main active ingredient. And without any other hair efforts being made.
