Clinical Trial Summary

The objective of this clinical study is to compare the safety and efficacy of a laser and topically applied platelet-rich plasma vs. platelet rich plasma injection in the treatment of male-pattern hair loss. Participating subjects will receive up to four (4) monthly treatments and will have a 12 month follow-up period.


Clinical Trial Description

This is a single institution, open-label, baseline-controlled, prospective study evaluating the use of a non-ablative fractionated thulium laser and topical autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) vs. PRP injection for the treatment of male androgenetic alopecia (MAA). Given that this is a feasibility study, the investigators do provide formal sample size calculations. The findings of the study will inform that effect size associated with the treatment under study, which will inform the sample size (and power) calculations of a full, large-scale study. For this feasibility study, the investigators conservatively estimated the number of eligible patients that can reasonably enroll in the study time frame. Over the course of 1 year, the investigators typically see 50 patients with this condition annually. Of those, the investigators anticipate 25-50% would be eligible and agree to participate in the study. Given this, the investigators reasonably believe the enrollment will be 12 male subjects, ≥ 18 years of age at time of signed informed consent, of whom 6 will be randomized to receive laser + topical PRP and 6 to receive PRP injection. Follow-up visits are planned for months 7, 10, 13, and 16. Standardized photography, hair density measurement of the treated scalp areas will be recorded Pre and Post Treatment at each visit. Measurement outcomes will be compared to baseline. During the initial visit, subjects who meet the study's eligibility criteria will receive the first treatment after signing informed consent form. ;
