Hier mal die wichtigsten Stellen:
Follica's technology employs a technique designed to stimulate the growth of new follicles and hair through disruption of the skin, followed by treatment with drugs and chemicals to enhance the effect on these new hair follicles and potentially further develop new hair. Follica has completed three human clinical studies of patients with androgenetic alopecia to demonstrate hair growth and new hair follicle formation following application of its technology. Follica has also performed and funded preclinical work which, together with research from the University of Pennsylvania ("Penn"), serve as the foundational observations on which the technology is based.
Follica is developing a proprietary device platform designed to 1) generate an 'embryonic window' via skin disruption in adults, creating new follicles from epithelial stem cells, and 2) enhance the effect of its technique through the application of various drugs and chemicals.
Follica currently owns or has exclusive rights to 32 patents and patent applications in four families of patent filings
• Follica's three clinical studies of patients with androgenetic alopecia demonstrated hair follicle neogenesis via biopsy following skin disruption and/or hair growth through target area hair count. One of these studies demonstrated that skin disruption alone was safe and generates new follicles as well as new hair, but did not achieve its primary endpoint as the chosen investigational compound (lithium gluconate 8 percent gel) did not further enhance the effect. A separate clinical study, published by third-party academics, indicated that the combination of skin disruption and an approved hair-growth compound, minoxidil, showed a 4x enhancement versus the efficacy of the compound alone.
Wieder mal ein ganz guter Ansatz. Geklonte Haare wären mir zwar lieber, aber Hauptsache die Haare wachsen ...
Aber hoffentlich kriegen die da auch ne vernünftige Haare-Menge und Dichte hin. Von Noorwood 5 zu Noorwood 4, das wäre dann schon auch wieder ne Enttäuschung
Aber schön, dass es zur Zeit viele, neue Ansätze und Verfahren gibt. Irgendjemand muss doch mal was bis 2020 so langsam schaffen!!!
