RIKEN Announcement: Succeeded in Developing Tech for HF Regenerative Medicine: Study to be Published Feb 10
- Thread starter pegasus2
- Start date
Yeah, however Pegasus isn't god, calm down. Obviously not a single offense to Pegasus who's a very good contributor of these forums, just don't think that a man is always right.
Expect to to be very highly priced if this is actually a "cure" for those already bald. Rich bald guys will be lined up for years to get this done, similar to top hair transplant surgeons now are booked 3-4 years out. Normies wont have access to this for several years after commercialization unless they had some plan in place to license this technology out to global hair transplant surgeons, because I suspect the transplant industry in it's current form would die pretty quickly if some surgeons got their hands on this type of procedure. Why would anyone have surgery to move hair when you could wait a year or two and get full density?

I think Stemson is the real deal, but Tsuji as well, however, RIKEN is a bit fishy in my eyes ngl.

im sure they would expand to other countries, but releasing such a treatment in europe or US would def need to wait for at least another (phase III) trial which new japanese regulations allow to be done while the product is on the market. time to plan vacation to japan

can someone translate the new tweets made from their twitter?
Has there even been a phase 1 trial for this, anywhere? I don't understand how we are talking about commercialization when they have 0 human data published. Unless they are about to report the results of a combined phase 1/2 trial then I fail to see where the hype is coming from.
Proof of concept is great, don't get me wrong, but we are literally talking about "organ" cloning here. This isn't going to be commercialized the day after pre-clinical study results.

It's about dental regeneration AND hairregeneration. "Cellbased regeneration therapies"
Edit: Trials will start soon, hope not mice again... hype train bye bye
"Good news for thin-haired men. Clinical research to revive bushy hair using regenerative medicine technology will soon begin."
Ie no human data, ie nothing to get overly excited about yet. Clearly this is a huge step forward but they don't have ANY human trial data yet, it seems. Could be huge in 3-5 years, of course.

Bro, what? That’s not what it says. The article they shared is 1 year old.
Oh wow it is lol. I thought it was January 10th 2021, but it's 2020. I took that line from the intro paragraph of the article itself, not the tweet. So we could be getting human data, interesting.
Seems the article in the tweet is from Jan 2020. They actually could have done human phase 1/2 in that time,

I fell for it too. My heart broke. Then the hype got to me again. Well, it’s just speculation at this point. Looking forward to tomorrow
