They have no holidays :smiley:

Seriously, how many diseases can be cured nowadays ? We sometimes can treat the symptoms, that’s it, we can’t even cure a common cold, isn’t it pathetic ?

I don’t believe it because it was " a friend of a friend ", if it were " a friend of a friend of a friend " then I would be quite sure it’s true.

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

and besides, for every other promising treatment there was some psychopath friend of a friend who told friend something :slight_smile:

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.

26

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.

whatever dude, mwahaha, its clear that you are a newbie in this forum.
those of us who are here for almost a decade (or more)know pretty well what these promises mean: SH*T

Lots of friendhips in the balding community…
This is very good!!
I am sure we will regrow hair out of this universal friendship!!

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.

That’s the same kind of business development model that PureTech is pursuing for other therapeutic areas as well.

Says Zohar: “We have four new companies we’re working on right now.”

<<<<

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?

http://www.follicabio.com/content/board-and-executive-team/

amnd 4 more people in the scientific advisory board:

They have absolutely nothing yet, and they are at least 4 years from having anything…

but in their website, there is a section for “Consumer Inquiries”, where you can fill in a form… to ask things… that of course they are not going to answer.

WHAT KIND OF JOKE IS THIS???

What the fu ck are you talking about? Seriously, take six months, work on your English, and then come back. AND TURN YOUR FU CKING CAPS OFF!

34

There isn’t any proof of concept in humans yet and you guys are already crying about timelines? Get a grip.

35

I’d call the infamous Gentifib cancer patient a pretty decent “proof of concept in humans” for Folica.

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.

Your pessemism is depressing, albeit accurate sounding.
