HISTOGEN
- Thread starter magico26
- Start date
se posso dire la mia non credo che Regenica paer la pelle possa funzionare per i capelli, hanno delle cose in comune ma non credo che quello per le rughe sia efficace per la calvizie.
Vi posto la mail che mi è stata mandata da Histogen, era un pò che non si facevano sentire ed io li attendo con ansia perchè stando a ciò che dicono dovrebbero essere i primi ad uscire.
E' un'intervista alla CEO dove a dir il vero non è che ci siano delle grandi novità ma comunque si fanno vivi e stanno lavorando questo è buono!!!
E' in inglese chi non lo parla .... mi spiace!
HSC Question & Answer Session with Histogen CEO Dr. Gail K. Naughton
Q: The Phase I/II clinical trial of HSC will begin in Singapore this Spring. How will the design of this trial differ from the pilot clinical trial?
A: Like the pilot trial, the Phase I/II will focus on safety and efficacy in the application of HSC as an injectable for hair growth, but this trial will also begin to examine dosing and delivery. As such, the trial design includes a larger number of injections per treatment site, as well as a second treatment timepoint, to determine if this further enhances the results.
In addition, the Phase I/II will be a dual-site trial with a larger number of subjects (50), which will provide us will more significant safety and efficacy data.
Q: Why has Histogen chosen to perform this clinical trial in Singapore? Will there be trials in other countries as well?
A: A number of countries in Asia, including Singapore, have become leading global centers for advanced aesthetic medicine. By performing the trial in Singapore, we are able to work with experts in the hair restoration industry while pursuing opportunities to bring HSC to market sooner.
After a successful Phase I/II trial, we plan to conduct a 250 patient study in 5 countries in Asia, which can lead to Pan-Asian (excluding Japan) approval.
Regulatory requirements for clinical trials and approval in Singapore and Pan-Asia are very similar to the US and Europe, and their regulatory agencies are highly regarded worldwide. Histogen continues to work with the FDA in parallel to the Singapore trial, and hopes to be able to utilize the data gained from the Phase I/II within its US FDA Investigational New Drug (IND) submission.
Future clinical studies of HSC in other countries are also likely. We look forward to getting the upcoming trial underway, and to further evaluating potential design and locations for studies including a pilot evaluation of HSC for diffuse hair loss in women.
Q: How does HSC work?
A: When grown under proprietary conditions of very low oxygen and suspension, human newborn dermal cells act as they would in the embryonic environment, becoming stem cell-like and producing proteins that are embryonic in nature. The soluble complex of cell-signaling proteins produced through this process becomes HSC.
HSC contains a number of proteins, including follistatin, VEGF and KGF, which have been shown by leading research to be involved in hair growth, maintenance, and in the development of new hair follicles. These proteins signal existing follicles to produce new hair, and stimulate stem cells in the scalp to become brand new hair follicles.
Q: How does Histogen plan to bring HSC to market?
A: As with all of its product applications, Histogen seeks to bring HSC to market through partnerships and licenses with global industry leaders. While HSC continues to be Histogen’s lead product application, the embryonic-like soluble proteins and insoluble extracellular matrix produced through our technology process have numerous therapeutic applications. Research to date in areas such as cancer and medical device coatings have yielded very exciting results, and Histogen’s expertise lies in the development of products to meet medical needs.
Q: Histogen has recently opened a Series B financing round. What will this financing be used for, and who are Histogen’s investors?
A: Histogen’s $23M Series B round of financing was opened in December 2010, and will be utilized to fund clinical trials of HSC through market launch in Asia, continue development of our oncology program, and upscale manufacturing to meet regulatory requirements and future commercial needs. As with our first round of financing, Histogen is seeking a limited number of accredited investors for the Series B, which we hope to bring to a close this Spring.

ciao riccardo,grazie della puntuale segnalazione.
io personalmente sono ottimista,spero che qualcosa esca per il 2014.
in altri forum c'è molto scetticismo(come è giusto che sia),sperando che non rimandino la data del 2014(tra le varie società ce ne sarà almeno una che andrà in porto spero...),mi auguro il meglio per tutti.

Be chi mi conose sa che io sono ottimista sul prodotto, é l'unico che ha pubblicato foto accettabili ha investitori e sta rispettando i tempi. Penso che loro vogliano uscire a Singapore prima di Aderans.
novità da histogen riccardo? tu sei sempre molto informato... personalmente seguo senza intervenire, primo perché finora ho visto molti annunci che poi si sono risolti in un nulla di fatto, o comunque nulla più che le normali terapie, e secondo per i costi, davvero eccessivi, senza neppure risultati veramente sorprendenti di queste.
Bhè devo dire che da questo punto di vista Histogen è molto disponibile a dare informazioni quindi se volete contattali via mail, vi rispondono sempre.
La unica novità è quella che ho postato sopra.

mi sembra di aver capito che la fase 2 di histogen sia una cosa del tipo fasi 2 e 3 contemporaneamente
Guarda che nessuno è fiscale al mondo eh papels !
Siamo a giugno e la primavera inizia a marzo, il 21 per la precisione. Tranzillo che prima del 2014-2015 non la vedi comunque quindi stai sereno ^_^

si ma se solo adesso è finita la fase 1 mi sa che prima di settembre non se ne parlerà di cominciare fase 2...ah quanto mi piacerebbe fare il ricercatore...lavorare 2 ore al giorno per 3 giorni a settimana e portare a termine un progetto in 10-15 anni...di sicuro loro non soffrono di alopecia psicogena o da stress...
ahahahaha dai papels su. Mese piu o mese meno cosa vuoi che cambi. L' importante è che esca. ^^
No appunto, quando esce esce, stare a vedere i minuti o i mesi ci fa solo del male gente. I tempi sono quelli, aspettiamo a vediamo cosa succede nel 2014-15. Prima, a parte farmaci come l'asj e cosmo su cui si potrà mettere le mani prima del tempo, non mi aspetterei. ^^
