So? Nobody has succeeded yet. Don't read a fickle marketplace as evidence for this stuff. It's all on a hunch. Same goes for frequency. People think if the stock skyrockets or goes up that there's inside information out there that someone got a hold of and they know it works. Which is a falsehood.
This hasn't been released yet. How do you know how many people it will help? They are still conducting trials.
I get it. I also feel like my hearing stuff is so unique, what helps others won't help me.
Hi,
Except they already saw early positive results from merely the safety study. Not exactly a variable past failures had.
That usually goes for every drug that hits the Phase 2 mark. If a drug doesn't show early positive results, it wouldn't be at Phase 2. We've seen plenty of examples of drugs not being successful in later Phases. Hell, scroll back in this thread. This time last year everybody was over the moon about this drug being the drug for hearing loss. The holy grail. Now we already have to concede it will probably only work well for high frequency hearing loss >3500 Hz. Even Frequency is basically admitting that with that "designed for high frequencies" nonsense.
That's not so much the drug's fault and more the lack of a proper delivery method to reach the Apex though.
Since when? All they needed is to show some promise from from preclinical testing then safety from phase 1.
A lot of drugs go through a Phase 1/2 first where efficacy is also tested.
Not denying that. In fact, that's why the "designed for high frequency loss" is nonsense to me; it's an excuse for not getting the drug in the entire cochlea. But regardless, the fact remains this drug will barely treat <3500 Hz as is. And that wasn't the vibe on this thread a year ago. It's just to show expectations can shift pretty rapidly regardless of previous positive results.
Hi Jurger,
And all those other hearing loss restoration drugs also had early positive results from the phase 1/2?
Only if you believe the truth is that nothing will ever work when in fact that is not the truth. We already have evidence of it. If you want to keep gloating, keep it to yourself. Dragging others down with false negativity is not the way.
I'm talking about drugs in general. There've been plenty of drugs that showed some efficacy at first only to fail in later phases. Come on man, leave your feelings outside for a second, assuming this drug will pass Phase 2a, 2b and 3 based on what we have now is a coping mechanism, and you know it.
Dude, they themselves are saying this about their drug, not me. As for excluding patients, why would they do that at this early stage? Maybe phase 2 paints a different picture, but right not they're saying the drug will have a hard time treating loss <3500 Hz. It's on their website.
Cool, thanks.
