Do you know for certain if GSK has dropped the idea of continuing Avodart studies for androgenic alopecia?

I can not speak for Glaxo Smith Kline, a pharmacuetical company, as to their official or unofficial plans for the drug Avodart. They manufacture Avodart for prostate disease as the most powerful and most effective DHT blocker. In theory, it should work better than Propecia, but without a committment by this drug company to bring it to market as a hair loss drug, the FDA will not allow it to be sold for hair loss.
