Filter by:This is a safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics study of bimatoprost in male patients with androgenetic alopecia (AGA).
Alopecia areata is a medical condition, in which the hair falls out in patches. The hair can fall out on the scalp or elsewhere on the face and body. Alopecia areata is an autoimmune skin disease, which means that the immune system is recognizing the hair follicles as foreign and attacking them, causing round patches of hair loss. It can progress to total scalp hair loss (alopecia totalis) or complete body hair loss (alopecia universalis). The scalp is the most commonly affected area, but the beard or any hair-bearing site can be affected alone or together with the scalp. Alopecia areata occurs in males and females of all ages, and is a highly unpredictable condition that tends to recur. Alopecia areata can cause significant distress to both patients and their families. Aim: To assess the effects of a new treatment called secukinumab in patients with alopecia areata. A total of 30 patients will be included in the study, which will run for a total of 28 weeks.
A phase 2 study to find out if the drug ruxolitinib Phosphate Cream is safe and has beneficial effects in people who have alopecia areata (partial or complete hair loss) when applied to the skin.
This study will investigate whether subjects who suffer from hair loss have increased levels of PAI-1 compared to age-matched control subjects. The level of PAI-1 expression will be determined in subjects without hair loss and in subjects with non-scarring hair loss, including androgenetic alopecia, telogen effluvium and alopecia areata.
This study aims to determine the frequency of response to treatment with 3 concentrations of IL TAC, 2.5mg/ml, 5mg/ml or 10mg/ml as well as the duration of response and incidence of side effects compared to treatment with placebo (sterile saline solution). After the 1st 6 months, nonresponders or partial responders may be treated for 6 months with open label triamcinolone at the dose deemed appropriate by the investigator. The investigators will also perform skin biopsies of the scalp and draw blood at selected time points in order to examine the immunohistochemical/pathological response in scalp hair follicles and the systemic circulation to treatment with IL TAC for alopecia areata.
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disease associated with infiltration of cluster of differentiation 4(CD4 +) and cluster of differentiation 8 (CD8) + cells around the hair follicles. One of the therapeutic approaches of inflammatory diseases such as alopecia areata is the induction of tolerance. This tolerance induction can be obtained by stimulating regulatory T cells (Treg). The low-dose interleukin-2 plays a central role in the development, expansion, regulation and survival of regulatory T cells CD4 + cluster of differentiation 25 (CD25) + forkhead box protein 3 (FoxP3). Recently, recombinant interleukin 2 (IL2-R) with low dose showed very promising results in two inflammatory disease (GVHD vasculitis and cryoglobulinemia secondary to hepatitis C): clinical efficacy, increased population Treg in the blood and an excellent safety profile. We hypothesized that administration of IL2-R in patients with severe alopecia areata might allow regrowth via activation of Treg and thus induce regrowth of the air.
The purpose of this study is to look at the safety, as well as the efficacy of hair transplantation compared with irritation with hypodermic needles in the treatment of subjects with refractory alopecia areata. With this study, the investigators hope to demonstrate that trauma is just as effective as hair transplant in the treatment of recalcitrant alopecia areata of the scalp.
The study will evaluate the safety of topical norepinephrine in head and neck cancer patients who are receiving treatment with intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT). The study will also provide information about whether topical norepinephrine can prevent or decrease the severity of the radiation-induced alopecia experienced by these patients.
The purpose of this clinical study is to determine if the Erchonia® ML Scanner (MLS) low level laser light device can help to regrow hair on the scalp of females experiencing hair loss or thinning.
The purpose of this study is to determine if MTS-01 is effective in preventing radiotherapy-induced hair loss in patients receiving whole brain radiotherapy
