Filter by:This study will evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of once-daily versus twice-daily dosing of CTP-543, in adult patients with chronic, moderate to severe alopecia areata.
The objective of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of Tofacitinib in treating patients with extensive and recalcitrant Alopecia Areata (AA), along with to evaluate the economic impact of the patients that may be from changing in their quality of life. There are patients with severe AA who may have little or no improvement from the treatment by diphenylcyclopropenone (DPCP) or topical steroid with minoxidil but instead having positive response from the treatment with Janus kinase(JAK) inhibitor such as Tofacitinib or Ruxolitinib. For the best of my knowledge, there was no previous study in using Tofacitinib to treat severe AA before in Thailand.
The purpose of this study is evaluating the efficacy and safety of a topical herbal solution in males for the treatment of Androgenetic alopecia.
This multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, conducted in Turkey, will assess the efficacy and safety of topical SM04554 solution (0.15% and 0.25%) applied daily to the scalp of male androgenetic alopecia (AGA) subjects.
This is a global Phase 2b/3 study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of an investigational study drug (called PF-06651600) in adults and adolescents (12 years and older) who have 50% or greater scalp hair loss. The study is placebo-controlled, meaning that some patients entering the study will not receive active study drug but will receive tablets with no active ingredients (a placebo). This is a dose-ranging study, investigating 5 different dosing regimens. It will be double-blinded, meaning that the sponsor, the study doctors, the staff, and the patients will not know whether a patient is on active study drug (or the dose) or placebo.
Chemotherapy-induced alopecia (CIA) is one of the most common and emotionally distressing side effects of cancer therapy. In this study we sought to assess the feasibility and the effectiveness of scalp cooling system DigniCap® to prevent alopecia in primary breast cancer patients receiving an anthracycline containing adjuvant chemotherapy (CT). A prospective two-stage design clinical trial conducted at a single Institution of women with primary breast cancer scheduled to receive anthracycline with or without taxane-based adjuvant CT. Patients were enrolled from July 2014 to November 2016, with ongoing annual follow up for 5 years. The scalp cooling period initiated approximately 30 minutes before CT. Scalp temperature was to be maintained at 3-5°C throughout CT and for 90 to 120 minutes afterward, depending on the CT drug and dose.
It is a well known fact that the JAK-STAT pathway plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of alopecia areata. Both phosphorylated STAT 1 and 3 have been found to be upregulated in the disease. However, whether this pathway plays a role in other hair loss disorders remains unclear. The study aims at assessing STAT3 levels in male patients with androgenetic alopecia. The investigators hypothesize that STAT3 levels will be elevated (due to a previous study proving that JAK-STAT pathway is involved in non-immune mediated hair loss in mice.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy of platelet rich plasma (PRP) injections for non-scaring alopecia in women. A randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial will be performed where patients with non-scarring alopecia will either receive injections of their own PRP or injections of normal saline (placebo). Patients in the treatment group (Group A) will have a small amount of their own blood drawn and have their PRP injected into their scalp four times. The injections will be given at weeks zero, four, eight, and twenty four. The placebo group (Group B) will be given the same schedule but will receive sham injections only and will not have any blood drawn. Both groups will have clinical data collected at all visits, including a screening visit before enrollment and a final assessment visit at week 40, for a total of 6 study visits per patient. Data collection will include representative photographs of the scalp and measurements of hair thickness. The results from the two groups will then be compared. In summary, all study participants will have a screening visit before enrollment, four study visits for sub-dermal scalp injections, and one final assessment visit at week 40.
The purpose of this study is to assess whether cosmetic investigational product containing NGF-574H is safe and effective in the treatment of androgenic alopecia in asian adults.
Corticosteroid therapy, including intralesional and topical applications, has many indications within the fields of Dermatology, Plastic Surgery, and Orthopedics. However, these injections can be quite painful, which leads many patients to discontinue treatment. Often, the injection involves a mixture of local anesthetic and corticosteroids despite a lack of evidence that the use of lidocaine improves pain. Due to the acidic pH, the lidocaine component of the injection can actually cause a significant burning sensation during the procedure. Lidocaine does not have anti-inflammatory properties and does not treat the underlying pathology. By including another medication, lidocaine also adds cost and risk to the procedure. The purpose of this study is to see if removing lidocaine from intralesional injections decreases the pain of injection.
