Can you send us a link about Chen's research?

It DOES make me feel better! You totally read my mind and understood what my concern was! :):):)

I've got a question. To the best of my knowledge, there are four main components in our auditory pathway that carry the sound to our brain. They basically are: 1) outer hair cells; 2) inner hair cells; 3) ribbon synapses; 4) spiral ganglion neurons (that is auditory nerve endings). We know...

Does it mean they would have to go through clinical trials all over again?!?

When do you expect Decibel Therapeutics will start phase I trials? Next year?

And how long will it take to bring the treatment here into the European Union, in your estimation?

I don't know what to think… the author of the article seems to know his stuff…

Yeah, according to this data it takes about 230 days to approve a fast-track designated drug. THAT'S SHOCKING. It means we may get the FX-322 injections by the end of THIS YEAR!!! :woot::love:

Do you think PIPE-505 and OTO-413 will receive fast-track designation by the FDA?

What regenerative drug is addressing nerve fiber degradation?

What are the chances of PIPE-505 and OTO-413 receiving fast-track designation, in your estimation?

Are these synapses the same elements which are said to regrow along with the new hair cells once the regeneration process is triggered by the FX-322 drug? It is believed that the auditory nerve detects the new hair cells and autonomously connects to them (through synapses, I guess) as a result...

What if the problem is in your auditory nerve?

I can't believe how excruciatingly slow the approval process is!!!

They are almost identical!!! So the laser did have a positive effect on your hearing loss and tinnitus but only in the early going?
