I have trusted Shiseido with their 2018 commercialization goal and got disappointed. I’d like them to be more transparent for us. Why they cant give us a f*****g update of the trials when they will be finished? CEO Masahiko Uotani is only speaking about his f*****g second Skin Technologie. Never he mentioned hair loss research... this is all sh*t!
Right. Shiseido is doing the efficacy trial and it was supposed to last 2 years. It started in 2016 and thats why Replicel (buckler) says they should release results soon.
All this new info is very contradicting..
I believe because the study is designed with different variables to be observed, different doses, frequencies etc. They could report efficacy, but it would be not the same thing as the real dose/frequency of when targeting efficacy. Right?Mr. Lizard, I wonder, why they did not report a 5-year efficacy since they have already reached 5-year follow-up (and this is precious since not so many studies can last this long) ? Looking at 2-year efficacy, it seems like the treatment is NOT permanent and losing its efficacy over time and we got to inject our scalp for the rest of our life. Maybe after 5-years, every body is below baseline again ?

Cool. Dont know if you realize it's then over for us as well.It's over for RepliCELS.

Nothing. I guess.What happened ?
Looking at the 2 year efficacy? Seems like losing efficacy? Where did you see those results? I thought that subjects were above baseline 2 years post injection. Where are you guys getting this info?

Thanks for the link. I just read it but I cannot confirm your claim. At 2 years, it is stated that they are ABOVE baseline, but about 1-2 percent points below the density they had at 6 months. How is that congruent with "they lost what they regret"?.

That is just demonstrating maintenence, which is awesome for a treatment in which we don't have to take a pill and apply a liquid every single day of our life.
Also, you have to consider that this trial wasn’t set up for dosing. I know it I sound like a broken record, but I feel it is important to consider. Maybe they will figure out how to dose correctly, and that maintenance will go from two to five years. Maybe not. Judging the efficacy of a treatment on phase one trials is a slippery slope. One that many people, myself included, cannot help but do. Hopefully we get some new results soon so as to further shed light on this treatment. Fingers crossed!
