A Silicon Valley-backed company aims to cure hair loss. Exciting advancements include mRNA therapies, gene editing, hair cloning, AR degraders, anti-androgens, cell-based rejuvenation, and AI-based drug discovery, with hopes for FDA approval of GT20029 within 10 years.
community I believe CRISPR-on & CRISPR-off is an ultimate CURE for baldness, unlike Hair Cloning or hair loss treatments.
The conversation discusses CRISPR-on & CRISPR-off as a potential cure for baldness, contrasting it with hair cloning and other treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841. It also mentions the potential of mRNA for gene expression control and the prioritization of gene editing for severe genetic conditions.
community Minoxidil is a 5ar inhibitor according to research
Minoxidil may inhibit androgen receptors and affect hormonal pathways, potentially explaining its effectiveness in treating androgenetic alopecia (AGA). Users discuss its varying effectiveness on scalp versus facial hair and note fewer side effects with topical use compared to oral.
community When could we expect pp405 to hit the market?
PP405 is expected to finish Phase 2 trials in late 2025, with potential market availability around 2028-2029 if all goes well. Current treatments like finasteride and minoxidil are still popular, while new options like KX-826 and Breezula are anticipated soon.
community Wouldn’t it be funny if there already was a drug that existed which reactivated sleeping follicles? It would be our own version of Ozempic
PP405 shows promise for reactivating hair follicles, with potential maintenance using 5AR inhibitors. Current treatments like Minoxidil and finasteride are effective but have limitations, and there is hope for more effective solutions in the future.
