Filter by:This is a Phase 2, single-center study designed to determine the effect of ECOHAIR topical solution on scalp hair growth evaluated objectively ( images) and subjectively ( patient and investigator reports). A total of 22 subjects are planned to be enrolled, 15 in a prospective single-arm phase in which they will receive the study treatment and 7 controls. Patients should have a clinical diagnosis of chemotherapy-induced alopecia.
Alopecia areata (AA) is a disease that happens when the immune system attacks hair follicles and causes hair loss. AA usually affects the head and face, but hair loss can happen on any part of the body. The purpose of this study is to assess how safe, effective, and tolerable upadacitinib is in adolescent and adult participants with severe AA. Upadacitinib is an approved drug being investigated for the treatment of AA. In Study 1 and Study 2 Period A, participants are placed in 1 of 3 groups, called treatment arms. Each group receives a different treatment. There is a 1 in 5 chance that participants will be assigned to placebo. In Study 1 and Study 2 Period B, participants originally randomized to upadacitinib dose group in Period A will continue their same treatment in Period B. Participants originally randomized to Placebo in Period A will either remain on placebo in Period B, or be randomized in 1 of 2 groups, based off of their Severity of Alopecia Tool (SALT) score. Participants who complete Study 1 or Study 2, can join Study 3 and may be re-randomized to receive 1 of 2 doses of upadacitinib for up to 108 weeks. Around 1500 participants with severe AA will be enrolled in the study at approximately 240 sites worldwide. Participants will receive oral tablets of either upadacitinib or placebo once daily for up to 160 weeks with the potential of being re-randomized into a different treatment group at Weeks 24 and 52. Participants will be followed up for up to 30 days after last study drug dose. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.
The prevention of chemotherapy-induced alopecia (CIA) is still imperfectly managed in France. Strengthening the evidence base on the benefits of strategies to prevent CIA, based on robust methodologies, remains a prerequisite for better integration of appropriate supportive care for patients receiving chemotherapy. This research should provide new knowledge on the benefits of scalp refrigeration during anthracycline- and taxane-based chemotherapy in preventing ACI, for each of the 2 refrigeration techniques. In addition to effectiveness in preventing ACI, quality of life, self-image and satisfaction with care will be assessed by patients during and after chemotherapy. The medico-economic aspects will also be assessed for each of the two refrigeration modalities. The results of the various proposed assessments will be used to guide the choice between these two techniques for preventing ACI.
The objective of this study is to assess the effectiveness of a novel dietary ingredient containing biotin and silicon for promoting hair growth and improving skin's appearance with six months of continuous daily usage among healthy adults.
A double-blind, randomized, controlled trial of 40 male patients with androgenetic alopecia was conducted. All subject were randomized to receive either combination of minoxidil 5% topical and finasteride 0,1% topical or minoxidil 5% topical
A randomized, double-blind, three-arm, placebo-controlled, safety, and efficacy study of plant-based Biotin and plant-based Biotin with Silica in healthy adult human subjects with complaints of hair fall, thin, dry, and brittle hair, and dry skin. A sufficient number (maximum of 105 (35 subject/test treatment)) of female/male adult subjects will be recruited/enrolled to ensure a total of 96 subjects (32 subjects/test treatment) complete the study.
The purpose of this 24-week study is to see if the SAGA-001 device is safe and effective at helping people with male pattern hair loss. Two different device configurations are being explored as part of this study. Device A has novel microneedles, lasers, and additional metal microneedles, while Device B only has novel microneedles and lasers. Participants will receive 12 treatments with either Device A or Device B over the course of 24 weeks. Treatments will be performed on-site every two weeks.
Although it is well known that the clinical expression and course of chronic inflammatory skin diseases are highly variable, there are insufficient epidemiological data on this, and the factors that determine the manifestation, clinical features and course are also largely unknown. There are currently no reliable markers that could predict or delineate patient subgroups to support patient management. The aim of this project is to identify clinical and molecular factors that correlate with disease, disease subtypes and progression through in-depth long-term clinical characterization of patients with chronic inflammatory skin diseases and examination of individual biomaterials.
The purpose of the study is to see if Clascoterone can help people with male pattern hair loss to recovery and see if the treatment is effective and safe and how well the drug is tolerated by subjects. Within this study, the Clascoterone solution will be compared to a placebo. The study has 2 parts: Part 1 will see if Clascoterone solution is effective and safe compared to a placebo when applied twice daily for up to 6 months. Part 2 will see the long-term safety and efficacy of the Clascoterone solution compared to placebo for additional 6 months in subjects defined as ''responders'' in Part 1. A responder is defined as someone who have responded to the study drug, based on research data. Part 1 of the study is double-blind, meaning that neither the subject nor the study doctor knows which treatment subject is receiving. Part 2 of the study is single-blind and only the study doctor doing the study knows which treatment subject is receiving. Part 1 of the study will start with baseline visit during which subjects will be randomly assigned (by chance) in ratio 2:1 to apply either Clascoterone or placebo solution to their balding areas of the scalp. Subjects will have 5 clinic visits and 2 follow-up phone calls during 6 months of Part 1 duration. Subjects identified as Part 1 responders at Month 6 visit will be again randomly assigned in ratio 2:1 to receive either study drug or placebo. Part 2 of the study will consist of 2 additional clinic visits and treatment will last for further 6 months. Each subject will have also an end of study visit one month after the study drug treatment has been completed or discontinued (it will be one month after end of Part 1 for not responder subjects). For those subjects who complete the whole study (Part 1 and Part 2), the total duration of the study will be about 14 months, with 12 months of treatment with a total of eight clinic visits and two phone calls. Subjects taking part in this study will have the medical tests or procedures described below. - They will be asked about their previous medical history and current medications. - A brief physical examination will be performed. - Vital signs, weight and height will be measured. - Electrocardiograms will be performed. - Subject's scalp will be checked for any signs of irritation. - Two different types of photos will be taken during this study: "global photos", i.e. general photos of the subject's scalp and "macro photos", i.e. close up photos of a region of the subject's scalp. Global photos will be taken to help the subject and the study doctor to assess whether there has been a change in subject's hair growth. Macro photos will be used to count the number of hairs in a region of the subject's scalp and measure other properties of the hair (hair width and hair darkness). - Blood draws and urine sample collection for safety laboratory tests. - Subject will be asked to complete, on site, the following two questionnaires: - Cosmetic Evaluation - a couple of cosmetic questions on acceptability and how easy the study drug is to use. - Male Androgenetic Alopecia Questionnaire - some questions about subject's hair assessment. Eligible subjects will be given a supply of the study drug and shown how to use and store it. The first study drug dose will be applied at the clinic under the supervision of the study staff. Subjects will be instructed to apply about 1.5 ml of study drug with a dropper to the balding areas of the scalp on the vertex and the temples twice daily, once in the morning and once in the evening. Subjects will be asked to bring back all used containers of study drug and all unused study drug to each study visit. Subjects will also be given a diary, shown what things have to be recorded on it and asked to bring back the completed diary to the study center at each visit.
