PP405's phase 2a trial results were presented, focusing on safety and pharmacokinetics, with a future meeting planned to share the full dataset. The trial includes a randomized controlled portion and an open-label extension, with no indication of phase 2B completion.
GT20029 showed significant hair growth and safety in phase II trials, with no adverse sexual events. Users are hopeful but concerned about future costs and systemic effects.
Laser caps are found to be more effective than 5% minoxidil for treating hair loss, and when combined with minoxidil, they are even more effective. Some users report positive results with laser treatments, while others see no change; the devices are FDA approved, but opinions on their efficacy vary.
The conversation is about the availability of gt20029 for hair loss treatment, indicating that it will not be available for purchase soon. No specific treatments were discussed.
A peptide from Japanese water chestnut fruit may help with hair loss by suppressing DHT's effect on hair follicle cell death, potentially serving as a finasteride alternative. The treatment's effectiveness and safety in humans remain uncertain.
Minoxidil, PRP, low-level light therapy, stem cell therapy, mesotherapy, Acell, and microneedling are discussed as treatments for thickening fine hairs in NW5 hair loss sufferers. A hair transplant may be necessary for significant improvement.
Pelage executives' hairlines were discussed, with speculation about them using PP405 for hair regrowth. Concerns were raised about using untested drugs, with some suggesting executives might not risk using them without safety data.
The conversation discusses the potential benefits of topical caffeine for Androgenetic Alopecia (APA) and female pattern hair loss. While some studies suggest positive results, there's no reliable scientific evidence to strongly recommend caffeine compounds for hair regrowth.
New hair loss treatments PP405 and VDPHL01 are discussed with skepticism and hope, alongside existing treatments like minoxidil and finasteride. Users express frustration over limited progress since the 1980s but remain cautiously optimistic.
The conversation discusses GT20029, a drug in Phase II trials that targets androgen receptors with minimal systemic effects, and TDM-105795, a growth stimulant with a different mechanism than minoxidil that may revive papilla stem cells. Both are potential new treatments for hair loss.
Pelage plans to release PP405 trial results at a medical meeting in early 2026, possibly during the AAD conference in March. There is speculation about whether new hair loss treatments or GTA 6 will be released first.
PP405 may encourage earlier hair growth and slightly increase visible hair count but does not reverse hair follicle miniaturization in male pattern baldness. It does not address damage to the dermal papilla or broken Wnt signaling.
The conversation discusses using 2% Pyrilutamide from Anagenica for hair loss, as the user did not see results with 1% Pyrilutamide. The user is considering increasing the dosage but is concerned about the cost.
A 22-year-old male uses dutasteride, a serum with 10% minoxidil and 0.5% finasteride, and microneedling for diffuse androgenetic alopecia. Progress pictures show changes from July 2025 to February 2026.
Topical Vitamin D3 may stimulate hair growth and has been used for Alopecia Areata. There is a question about the lack of research on its use for Androgenetic Alopecia (AGA).
Exploring hair loss treatments beyond DHT, including Minoxidil, pyruvate, Gt20029 targeting androgen receptors, and vasodilators. Other options like Kx826, adenosine signaling, growth factor topicals, and microneedling are also discussed.
Clascoterone in Winlevi, a topical AR antagonist, is being re-examined due to concerns about HPA axis suppression in adolescents, but it's unlikely to be banned for adult use in androgenetic alopecia (AGA). The European Medicines Agency recommended refusing Winlevi for acne vulgaris, but this may not affect Breezula's approval for AGA.
The conversation discusses using PGE2 as a hair growth stimulant, comparing it to minoxidil, and considering the addition of Setipiprant. Concerns about side effects like skin damage and cost are also mentioned.
