Title: MWPC003 update and absurd question for forum
Post by: samsung on January 14, 2020, 06:11:15 PM
This is for mediwound product in case anyone is wondering. I asked this guy many months ago if he had any updates. Just heard back. Sort of depressing, but expected.

Here is the whole exchange:

No updates, low priority program for the company as it focuses on its more urgent and later-stage NexoBrid and EscharEx programs.

On Jan 14, 2020

Hello Mr. Feffer. Please see below. If you have any updates, please let me know.

Best,

Subject: Re: MWPC003 updates?

Sorry for the delay in response. As the company has mentioned before, this program is still pre-clinical, but there should be updates next year.

On Sep 1, 2019

Hello,

Are there any updates about MWPC003? Please check out peyroniesforum.net. I would include links to where mediwound products are discussed but you don't know me, so I'm sure would not want to click on links in an email.

At any rate, many, many men are awaiting news of when any clinical trials might be taking place. Thanks in advance for any updates. 

My question to the forum is this, and please excuse the absurdity of it.

Why not hire a hacker to breach their servers, steal the chemical formula and inject myself with it?

I realize this is illegal, but I am honestly asking everyone here. The chemical does exist. I know people who could do this. I have a fairly decent amount of money. I doubt it would cost more than 50K. I doubt I would get caught (other than the evidence I just posted).😁

And by no means am I saying I am going to do this. In fact, I absolutely would not. But it could be done.

Other than prison, can someone give me a reason why I should wait possibly 20 years for a research chemical to go through trials? Or never even get there.

Asking honestly. Why? Like I said, I realize the absurd nature of this question. But I am asking honestly. We are all desperate. There is no good reason to wait.

I know this post is stupid and immature. I am sort of just asking what you all think about this and about clinical trials in general.

There are probably 100 fibrosis research chemicals that exist right now and I would inject all of them into my dick because that is better than nothing. Who are they to hold them from us?

Hopefully everyone knows not to take my post too seriously. I was sharing an update on mediwound (they aren't going to do anything for a good long while or probably anything at all-bottom line being peyronie's is not a priority for them. He went further in a subsequent email) and just venting frustration.

Yeah waiting for a headline that reads:
"Man forces lab assistant to inject obscure drug into his bent penis" :D

I read Trump wants to lower the requirements to go through these endless phases or was it only for people on the brink of death for cancer drugs etc.?
I have another chronic condition that I contacted docs in the US for years and I stopped doing that. Too frustrating, sometimes they are close then the whole company is bought, funding shifted, everything is delayed indefinitely. But hey at least something is happening. Nothing is happening in the EU lol

I have no clue what Mediwound is.  I never even heard of it.  Which means this entire topic makes no sense to a majority of readers.

There are a few threads on MWPC003. Here is one:

https://www.peyroniesforum.net/index.php/topic,9699.msg91836.html#msg91836

And again, I apologize for the stupid parts of this post. Merely trying to bring attention to the fact that a representative of the company emailed me back to basically say that they are not going to do anything with this drug for the foreseeable future.

Not a big deal imo. Drugs are not the future anyway. Doesn't matter. This would have just been another band aid, like xiaflex. They will never cure anything with drugs. It is tissue engineering/stem cells/crispr, etc. In about 50 years, you'll be fine. In the meantime God can continue to feast off our tears to run his machine.

Already got to the conclusion that i will not have an usable penis in my lifetime. Funny thing a real improver for us all is already here as autologous graft is nothing compared to what he have been hearing recently. But it's all about market logics and curing is not good for medicine.

Thus, never understood why no one investigated cadaveric tissue. Nowadays a tissue bank is feasible, my uncle had a rib transplanted and he had to take anti suppressants for just a month or something.

Why not create a petition on the site and email them telling them your interested in the drug until we get thier attention. Or if they arent going to bother using the drug getting them to sell it to another Research and developement Company. Question: is this a publically traded company?
Title: Re: MWPC003 update and absurd question for forum
Post by: samsung on February 28, 2020, 03:03:40 PM
Because that would take time and I am lazy :)

Don't know if public company or not.

@Hawk,
what can we do to make MWPC003's clinical trials begin faster? Any idea guys?

What I just mentioned, Ill be emailing and calling both companies and others should do the same

MWPC003 is essentially medical grade bromelain derived from the stems of pineapples. It can break down certain connective tissues like fibrous plaques without harming surrounding tissue and blood vessels. Bromelain has been used for years as a meat tenderizer. The problem with the do it yourself approach is that even if you could get the drug you wouldn't know the proper concentration to use. All of Mediwounds products contain the same active ingredient.

I was watching a movie called "The fountain" with Hugh jackman where he cures dieases with experiemntal compounds, sort of life the tony stark of medicine. It is clear that this therapy shows promise, but obviously the company isnt focused on this drug at the moment, The active compounds are relatively easy to get (bromelain) , The best course of action would be to get ahold of Bromelain and inject it into rats with peyroines (similar to early trials of xiaflex), until we get a concentration that can break down the plaque. It is my understanding that this treatment is far less agressive than xiaflex (which is basically gangrene). So injecting this into a human penis after successful trials in rats seems relatively safe. Since the company isnt willing to do this, I think it is feasable to Tony Stark this thing. I dont think it would take that much money to accomplish, just alot of time and dedication and trial and error but lightspeed compared to waiting for a biotech to come out with a solution(other than xiaflex)

In the meantime, supplement Bromelain ? Some of it might reach the plaque.

They injected this stuff into Drutopyans cords ex vivo and achieved cord rupture, Bromelain has ~40% bioavialability when ingested orally

The body can absorb significant amount of bromelain; about 12 gm/day of bromelain can be consumed without any major side effects [13]. Bromelain is absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract in a functionally intact form; approximately 40% of labeled bromelain is absorbed from intestine in high molecular form

Looks like you can take up to 12 grams per day without side effects, 12 grams cost is about $40 USD

I imagine you would have to take a massive amount for it to reach the target area, but might be crazy enough to work

I purcahased a massive amount of Bromelain. I am taking 1 gram every hour throughout the day. Will see what 7 days and 12g per day can do.

It has been shown that a substantial portion of orally administered bromelain is absorbed intact into the bloodstream, thereby elevating the proteolytic and fibrinolytic activity of the blood for hours.

Might be best taking it out of say an eight hour eating 'window', interesting and good luck  :)

That's smart, talking it often. And yes, as I understand it interacts with proteins so don't take it with meals?

Also, some food for thought.. I'm a firm believer that these compounds often work with other compounds that go with it naturally.
Like vitamin C comes with flavonoids etc. You might take some pineapple juice and possible pieces with it.

Post by: Paolo on June 06, 2020, 09:27:09 AM
It is actually the 'stem' or 'core' of a pineapple that contains the most Bromelain, therefore blending the whole pineapple will give a concentrated amount. Commercial pineapple juice might be a poor substitute for fresh due to the juice missing the core and pasteurization  ?

Combine Bromelain with Quercetin for extra potency

I attemtped to take 12 grams daily, on day 2 i noticed some rather explosive side effects, kept going and by day 3, i was running to the bathroom every 10 minutes. At 12g per day, the laxative side effects caused me to stop treatment. this one is still up in the air. I may try it again but i would have to stock up on charmin first

Titrate the dose until GI abates, better still get 'whole' pineapples and blitz, consume away from meals.
