Filter by:The goal of this study is to study the efficacy and safety of Tofacitinib therapy in Thai patients with recalcitrant frontal fibrosing alopecia. The main questions are 1. Does Tofacitinib significantly reduce Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia Severity Index (FFASI), Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia Severity Score (FFASS), Lichen planopillaris Activity Index (LPPAI) compared to baseline and after 16 weeks? 2. Is Tofacitinib significantly different for adverse events compared to baseline and after 16 weeks? Participants will have a check-up in clinical and investigation and then get prescribed oral Tofacitinib 5 mg twice a day for 12 weeks. After that, they will have follow-up every 4 weeks until week 16.
The purpose of this clinical research study is to learn more about the use of Deucravacitinib in the treatment of Lichen Planopilaris.
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of ixekizumab in lichen planus and lichen planopilaris clinical response by Total Body Surface (TBS) determination, Investigator Global Assessment (IGA) Score, Lichen Planopilaris Activity Index (LPPAI), and Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia Severity Score (FFASS).
Oral naltrexone was initially FDA approved to treat opioid use disorder and alcohol dependence at doses from 50-100mg/day. At lower doses of 1-5mg/day, naltrexone has been used off-label with success in treatment of several dermatologic conditions including the scarring hair loss disease lichen planopilaris. A recent case series of four patients with lichen planopilaris and a subtype, frontal fibrosing alopecia, treated with oral low-dose naltrexone at 3mg daily showed reduction of itch, clinical evidence of inflammation of the scalp, and of disease progression. There were no reported adverse events. Based on the promising evidence, we propose using low-dose naltrexone at a daily dose of 3mg to treat lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia. The patients would be continued on their other medications for these conditions. The study would be open-label, so all participants would receive the low-dose naltrexone. Patients would be seen at 0,3,6 and 12 months to monitor their progress.
The primary objective of this study is to assess the potential effectiveness of once daily application of Valchlor in decreasing disease activity in patients with Lichen Planopilaris. The primary measurement of efficacy will be with the Lichen Planopilaris Activity Index (LPPAI) before and after 6 months of treatment. Secondary measures of efficacy will be the mean follicular density, Physician Global assessment (PGA) score, and the Dermatology Quality of Life Index (DQLI) score before and after six months of therapy.
This study will serve as a pilot study to determine the efficacy and safety of topical gabapentin in the treatment of symptomatic scarring alopecia.
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 purpose of this research study is to see if a specific protein that we are interested in is involved in scarring hair loss. If these proteins are involved, further genetic work may also better define the disease as well as future treatment options.
