I think we can best find out from a doctor if these new drugs will be available soon or maybe even are already available.

That's great news for us all! I've actually got an appointment with my doctor tomorrow, and I'll ask his opinion on this. Fingers crossed, the treatment is not gonna cost a fortune, and all of us will be able to afford it. By the way, random question: have you guys struggled more with your disorder after testing positive to covid? I am, and that's why I'm seeing my doctor tomorrow. Also, another random question regarding patents: has anyone used patent translation services before? If yes, could you please tag the company here? I'm thinking of using circletranslations.com; any thoughts?

Pfizer could acquire the company for the patents and then never manufacture the patented drugs to prevent competition to their Xeljanz drug.  There was a hopeful treatment for autoimmune diseases (including alopecias) many years ago wherein the company that held the patent was acquired for the purpose of burying the drug so it would not compete with current drugs on the market.  

Curing people at a low cost is not helpful to profit margins. 

We can hope that this company has a mission to bring these drugs to market to help those with difficult to treat diseases.
