Where do you see that it was tested on a patient? The only example I see is a human skin xenograft on mice.

Topical EGF Inhibitor was being tested in this patent, not patient =)

Whatever happened to the member BACCY? From what I remember, he had some success with an EGF inhbitor and wounding.

Ahhh…damn. Wishful thinking. This is an old patent I believe, I don’t think Baccy grew any new hair. Follica has not tested this on humans to my knowledge, and I have no idea what they are up to.

The EGFR pathway is really complicated I’m afraid.
