    Dutasteride Update
    FDA approves Avodart, the first dual-acting 5 alpha- reductase inhibitor for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)

    London, October 10, 2002 - The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) today approved a supplemental new drug application for Avodart® (dutasteride), manufactured by GlaxoSmithKline (GSK), for the treatment of symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in men with an enlarged prostate. This new medicine for these patients will improve urinary symptoms, reduce risk of acute urinary retention (AUR) and reduce the risk of the need for BPH-related surgery.

    Dutasteride, a second-generation 5 alpha-reductase inhibitor, is the first and only medicine to inhibit both the type 1 and type 2 enzymes responsible for the conversion of testosterone to DHT (dihydrotestosterone), the primary cause of prostate growth. Dutasteride's dual inhibition decreases levels of DHT by 90 percent at two weeks and 93 percent at two years.

    Radio Programme
    After having appeared on BBC radio answering questions on hair loss, I have received a great response from listeners. I have also been approached by a few companies working on documentaries about hair loss. Below are two such companies.

    Too young to be losing your hair? Is your life all going to plan apart from what's happening up top? Have you've tried some of the treatments on offer? Maybe you're thinking about shaving your head?

    Betty TV are making a documentary for Channel 4 and would like to talk to men in their teens, twenties and thirties who have thinning hair and are not happy about it. All of us lose our hair at some point in life, yet, for many young men it can be difficult to deal with. We'd like to hear about your experiences. Please contact saskia@bettytv.co.uk or matt@bettytv.co.uk for more information.

    I also have a cable TV company who sell on the shopping channel looking for people who use Couvre. They want a couple of models for a live show. Anyone interested please e-mail me.

    Hair Loss News
    Green glowing mice shine a light on baldness

    WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Mice whose fur glows green may be the first step to using gene therapy to treat hair loss, baldness and perhaps even to permanently change hair colour, researchers say.

    They put jellyfish genes into the hair follicles of the mice, which grew fur that glowed fluorescent green under the right light.

    "The hair now is glowing green because green fluorescent protein is in the hair shaft," Robert Hoffman of San Diego-based AntiCancer, whose company led the study, said in a telephone interview.

    Getting Over the Hurdle: Helping Men Talk About Hair Loss

    It's often hard for men to acknowledge they are losing their hair, and it can take years before they look into treatment options. But hair loss treatment is most effective when started early, so it's important for men to speak up if they are worried about hair loss. Tune in as patient advocate Spencer Kobren talks about the decisions and challenges facing men who are balding. Also on the program, three men share their experience with hairloss, and the treatment options--from medications to surgery--that helped them.
