This is a pilot study to evaluate the effect of the 1550 nm fractional erbium-glass laser in patients with nonscarring alopecias. Participants currently living in the Chicago metropolitan area and meet inclusion/exclusion criteria will be considered for enrollment. Participants will receive 5 sessions of laser, 30 days apart, to the area of alopecia on the scalp. Follow-up is at 150 days. This study was a pilot study designed to determine feasibility of this procedure.
Alopecia is a common, distressing condition that is sometimes difficult to diagnose and treat. Losing hair is not usually health threatening; it can scar a young child's vulnerable self-esteem by causing immense psychological and emotional stress, not only to the patient, but also to the concerned parents and siblings; so the cause of hair loss should be diagnosed and treated early to overcome the resulting problems.
Paclitaxel is a chemotherapy drug that is used to treat breast cancer, one of the most common cancers. It causes two side effects very often - hair-loss and numbness. Until recently, there have been no known ways to prevent or treat either side effect. Recently, cooling of the scalp to prevent hair loss caused by paclitaxel was approved. Our team is developing a method to prevent numbness caused by paclitaxel by using a device that cools the arms and the legs, while applying mild pressure, and this technique is called cryocompression. As scalp cooling use in day-to-day cancer care increases, future studies involving cryocompression to treat neuropathy must take this into account, lest patients be denied or are required to trade-off one treatment for the other. However, there is concern of causing a reduction in core body temperature, which would not be safe or a general intolerance to this treatment. Both scalp cooling and limb cryocompression individually have not shown to cause this, but simultaneous use has not been studied previously. Clinical safety studies, in healthy subjects and cancer patients would need to be conducted to prove this theory, which is being proposed by currently.
Double-blind, randomised, multi-centre study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of LH-8 cutaneous solution versus placebo in children and adolescents with moderate to severe scalp alopecia areata. Phase 2/3 study performed in France, Germany, Bulgaria and India in 100 patients.
NUTRAFOL® is a novel nutraceutical supplement, scientifically formulated to specifically target the multiple underlying causes of hair loss and thinning in women. It does not contain hormones, drugs, or industry by-products. The purpose of this clinical research study is to evaluate the safety, efficacy and physiological effects of NUTRAFOL® supplement compared to placebo in forty (40) female subjects, ages 21-65 years of age with self-perceived thinning hair over the course of six months of continued use.
Alopecia areata (AA) is a common, idiopathic and sometimes recurrent non-scarring type of hair loss. Several etiological factors, including psychological, trauma-related, genetic and autoimmune factors have been considered as possible etiological factors . A T cell-mediated autoimmune mechanism in genetically vulnerable individuals is the most acceptable etiology. Alopecia areata presents clinically with well demarcated patches of non cicatricial hair loss in any hair bearing area with no remarkable gender preference. Although AA may occur at any age, incidence is high among younger age groups. In fact, it is the most common form of alopecia seen in children. Various clinical patterns of alopecia have been described as patchy, diffuse, reticulate, ophiasis and ophiasis inversus. Depending on the extent of hair loss, it can be classified into alopecia subtotalis, alopecia totalis (complete loss of scalp hair), and alopecia universalis (complete loss of body hair). National Alopecia Areata Foundation has devised "Severity of Alopecia Tool Score" (SALT score) as a measure of disease severity. Scalp is divided into 4 areas, namely, Vertex-40% of scalp surface area; right and left profiles-18% each and posterior scalp aspect-24%. SALT score is the sum of percentage of hair loss in the above mentioned areas.
Androgenetic alopecia is a common form of diffuse hair loss in both men and women,It primarily affects the top and front of the scalp with different clinical presentations and there are numerous classification systems for grading purposes.
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of CTP-543 on hair loss in adults with chronic, moderate to severe alopecia areata.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the use of a biocellular mixture of emulsified adipose-derived tissue stromal vascular fraction (AD-tSVF) and high density platelet-rich plasma concentrate (HD- PRP). Additionally, comparison with clinical outcomes of adipose-derived cellular Stromal Vascular Fraction (AD-cSVF) + AD-tSVF + HD PRP; AD-cSVF + emulsified AD-tSVF + HD- PRP; emulsified AD-tSVF + HD PRP + AD-cSVF; AD-cSVF via intravenous infusion in treatment of Scaring Alopecias and Alopecia Areata. Control will be served by use of established clinical protocol of using platelet concentrates with Matristem Matrix (Acel) injected in the same fashion as the other ARMs within this study, and comparative analyses performed at the endpoint of this study.
