PelagePharmaceuticals announced positive Phase 2a trial results for PP405 in hair loss therapy. The conversation discusses the delay in publishing full results and the need for further trials and approvals.
PP405, developed by PelagePharmaceuticals, can reactivate dormant hair follicle stem cells and increase hair growth by 20% in eight weeks, unlike minoxidil or finasteride. However, skepticism remains about its effectiveness and availability, with concerns about funding and the timeline for broader access.
PelagePharmaceuticals is developing PP405, a topical treatment for hair growth, currently in Phase 2a trials. There is skepticism about the company's claims, and no fast-tracking approval timeline has been detailed.
There is no new information on pp405, with data collection expected to finish by the end of 2025. Users are discussing the timeline for data analysis and completion of PelagePharmaceuticals' phase 2 study.
PP405 is a topical gel being tested for hair regrowth in adults with androgenetic alopecia. Volunteers aged 18-55 are needed for a 16-week trial in several US locations.
