ICX-TRC

ICX-TRC is a novel hair regeneration product. It consists of a suspension of autologous dermal papilla (DP) cells. These cells are able to stimulate the generation of new hairs when injected into the scalp in close proximity to the epithelial cells which generate the hair.

In September this year we announced the first results from the current Phase II trial. In the sub-group of subjects (5 in total) whose scalp was pre-stimulated at the time of injection all subjects showed substantial and visible increased hair counts at 6 and/or 12 weeks (13-105%). We believe this increased hair production is attributable to the interaction between the injected DP cells and the stimulated resident hair producing cells.

A further 5 subjects have now been treated with ICX-TRC using the pre-stimulation technique with 2 more expected in January. By the end of March 2008 we expect to announce preliminary 12 week data on up to 16 subjects in total and preliminary 24 week data on up to 10 subjects.

Do the injected cells "stimulate" the generation of new hairs, or do they generate new hairs themselves? I'm confused. Or maybe I'm just reading into it too much. Hell, whoever wrote this probably wanted to get home to the family, and begin Christmas break.

I think it means stimulate elquapo. If that's it, good because I have a ton of vellus hairs everywhere!

 

[elguapo]

I guess that's what the DP cells do - stimulate the keratinocytes or whatever to produce hair. I'm sure I learned that when I first found this site 4 years ago. Damn, I can't believe it's been that long. Anyway, it makes sense now. Can't wait until March comes around for another update from Intercytex!

I just wish they have some real info. I mean information you can understand. Not just this stupid percentages which could mean anything. Photos would be ideal as well but i guess we will have to wait another 9 months for that.

Im not sure if this is finance results or the studies that we are waiting on

Well I'm excited. I wish there were more test subjects, but I suppose we'll take what we can get.

so we still on for this deadline?

Sorry to burst you bubble, but that is referring to their financial results :/

 

[elguapo]

Perhaps, but they do mention on their website...

That they expect to announce an update on the clinical trials this month as well.

I think they will make the announcement this month as they say they will. They have been good about that so far. Whether they made progress or not is another matter.
