This double-blind placebo-controlled study will assess the tolerability, feasibility, and pharmacodynamics of intradermal Hair Stimulating Complex (HSC) in up to 18 of 27 women with Ludwig 1 or 2 classification or the Savin Frontal classification of hair loss. Safety measures include vital signs, dermatological examination of the scalp, pre- and post-dose blood and urine collection, as well as Investigator Global Assessments and subject self assessments throughout the 22-week study.
This study is designed to select up to two doses of baricitinib (referred to as low dose and high dose) and assess their efficacy and safety for the treatment of severe or very severe alopecia areata. An additional subpopulation of 60 participants in the US will enroll in the open-label addenda.
This study is being done to evaluate the effects of fractional photothermolysis (known as laser resurfacing) using fractional laser for the induction of hair follicles via skin rejuvenation in subjects with scalp alopecia (specifically, alopecia on the superior forehead at the frontal hairline). Fractional photothermolysis has been shown to be effective in promoting hair growth. The investigators will study 50 subjects who will be treated 6-10 times at 2-4 week intervals. Each participant will have half of their head treated with a laser, either Fraxel DUAL 1550 or Halo by Sciton, and the other half of their head will be left untreated as a control. Half of the individuals will randomly be assigned to the group to be treated with Fraxel DUAL 1550, and the other half will be treated with Halo by Sciton. Visual observation and digital, photographic, non-invasive imaging will be used to compare the treated and untreated area to assess for differences in hair follicle stimulation rates, number and density of hairs. As noted above, the types of lasers we plan to use include the non-ablative fractional laser settings for the Fraxel DUAL 1550 and Halo by Sciton. A fractional laser is a laser that directs an intense burst of laser energy on the skin. The treatment deposits heat deep into the dermis to tighten skin and stimulate collagen remodeling. The necrotic (death of cells or tissue) injury heals rapidly and adverse effects are few. Laser resurfacing is commonly used for rejuvenation of the skin to improve quality, tone, and texture.
The study's Primary Objective is to design and validate a grading system for objective and accurate assessment of lichen planopilaris. Secondary Objectives: - To assess change in symptoms such as pain and itch using a Numeric Rating Scale(NRS) scores and quality of life using the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) scores - To correlate this grading system with patient skin biopsies evaluating disease activity on a microscopic level - To correlate this grading system with digital global photography and trichoscopy
The injection of autologous platelet rich plasma (PRP) is a relatively novel therapy, generating interest across a wide variety of medical specialties, such as orthopedics, dentistry, ophthalmology, and dermatology. Several recently published studies have demonstrated efficacy in treating androgenetic alopecia (aka male or female patterned hair loss), but each varies in the treatment protocol, and there is no evidence-based data to date guiding the dosing parameters of and intervals between injection sessions. We propose a single-center, single-blinded randomized pilot trial to investigate the most beneficial number and frequency ('schedule') of necessary PRP injections in men and women with androgenetic alopecia.
To investigate and compare the safety and effectiveness of the ARTAS™ System to manual hair follicle implantation method following a nine month period of post-procedure evaluation.
The purpose of this study is to see how many patients develop hair, skin and nail changes due to cancer treatments. The investigators would like to study the clinical factors, genetic markers, and impact on patients' health-related quality of life to learn more about who is at greater risk. We trust that the study will improve our understanding of how cancer patients feel about their skin, hair, and nail conditions. This information will help us determine the burden on breast cancer patients and survivors. It will also help us learn how to prevent these conditions and it may improve the way we treat them and counsel patients.
This is a prospective, randomized double-blind, multi-center study to evaluate the efficacy of low level laser therapy over-the-counter at home device Theradome LH80 PRO, compared to SHAM for promoting hair growth in males diagnosed with androgenetic alopecia, and a usability study to assess subject ability to self-assess hair loss and understanding use of the device.
Determine that the Orbis Paxman Hair Loss Prevention System is safe and effective in reducing chemotherapy-induced alopecia in woman with breast cancer undergoing neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy.
