Filter by: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.
Open label study to assess safety, tolerability, and efficacy of ATI-50002 in male and female subjects with androgenetic alopecia.
This study evaluates the optimizing parameters of long pulse Nd:YAG Laser for reducing the size of hair shaft diameter of the donor for hair transplantation. All participants will receive long-pulsed Nd-YAG laser treatments with three different parameters at the occipital area.
Platelet rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous preparation of human plasma with high concentration of platelets. Platelets release numerous growth factors, which stimulate cell proliferation and differentiation. The purpose of this research is to investigate the potential of PRP injection for treatment of hair loss. Clinical outcomes will be assessed by noninvasive techniques including dermoscopy, multiphoton microscopy, optical coherence tomography, optical Doppler tomography and multispectral imaging.
This study will evaluate the skin pharmacokinetics and tolerability of bimatoprost Formulation A and Formulation B following 14 days of once daily topical administration in male participants with androgenetic alopecia (AGA).
This study evaluates the potential for induction of photosensitization by P-3074 0.25% finasteride cutaneous solution compared to that of placebo vehicle cutaneous solution and a negative control (0.9% sodium chloride, NaCl)
Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is the most common form of hair loss and affects 50% and 23% of Caucasian men and women, respectively, over the age of 50. The percentage of men and women affected over the age of 70 increases to 80% and 60% of Caucasian men and women, respectively. Although alopecia is considered a minor dermatologic condition, it is seen as a serious condition with major life consequences by those with alopecia and has been associated with increased incidence of myocardial infarction, hypertension and hypercholesterolaemia. Androgenetic alopecia is associated with feelings of anxiety, depression and various personality disorders among men and women due to physical appearance. Depression, anxiety, aggressiveness, impaired quality of life and social inadequacy have been documented. The presence of alopecia in women is particularly stressful. ADSCs (Adipose Derived Stromal Cells), also called Stromal Vascular Fraction (SVF) cells, include regenerative cell populations derived from adipose tissue and thus are potentially important to multiple disease processes and therapeutic applications for the repair and regeneration of acute and chronically damaged tissues. It has been postulated that SVF cells may promote hair regeneration by increasing the hair-inducing ability of dermal papillae (DP) cells. The general objective of this study is to conduct a safety and feasibility study of a single injection of autologous adipose-derived SVF cells for the treatment of alopecia.

Platelet rich plasma (PRP) therapy is a novel therapeutic modality that has seen broad applications for a number of medical indications including those in orthopedics, dentistry, and dermatology. In dermatology, its uses have included treatment of chronic wounds and facial rejuvenation. More recently, anecdotal reports have suggested some efficacy in the treatment of hair loss, but to the best of our knowledge, there has been only one published case series documenting its use for this indication.
