Active clinical trials for "Alopecia Areata"

A clinical study to collect additional data in order to characterize the reduction in PSA with finasteride 1 mg, and its reversibility in men with androgenetic alopecia between the ages of 40 to 60 years.

The purpose of this study is to examine prospectively the safety and efficacy of Botulinum Toxin A (Botox) injections in the treatment of patients with alopecia areata of the scalp.

The goal of this clinical research study is to find the most effective dose of Targretin® (bexarotene) Gel 1% that can be given to patients as a treatment for alopecia areata. The safety and tolerability of this drug will also be studied. Objectives: Determine the safety and tolerability of Targretin® Gel 1% in the treatment of patients with alopecia areata. Determine the efficacy of Targretin® Gel 1% in the treatment of patients with alopecia areata.

The primary purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of a topical 5% minoxidil formulation in males for the treatment of pattern hair loss. The secondary purpose is to evaluate the safety of a topical 5% minoxidil formulation in males when used twice daily for the treatment of pattern hair loss and to obtain the safety data on the investigational product when used twice daily for up to one year.

This is a single-center, open-label clinical study to study the efficacy of apremilast in the treatment of mild to moderate central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia. The investigators hypothesize that the anti-inflammatory properties of apremilast may play a role in the decreasing scalp inflammation in patients with CCCA and may prevent further hair loss and potentially induce hair regrowth in patients with mild to moderate disease.

Alopecia areata (AA) is a common, immune-mediated non scarring alopecia and can be associated with severe psychological consequences . Alopecia Areata affects 2% of the global population. Alopecia Areata prevalence is lower in adults than children, is increasing over time, and significantly differs by region. Its etiology is unknown but it was hypothesized to be an autoimmune disease mediated by T-lymphocytes. It has been suggested that inflammatory T cells induce growth arrest in hair bulbs in the anagen phase of the hair cycle . Cytotoxic T cells secrete tumor necrosis factor, granzymes, and Fas ligand which trigger apoptosis in affected hair follicle and disrupt hair growth

The aim of this study is to evaluate the use of fractional carbon dioxide laser versus microneedling in the transepidermal delivery of triamcinolone acetonide and platelet rich plasma in treatment of alopecia areata.

The REVIAN study is designed as a prospective, randomized, controlled, double-blind, parallel study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the REVIAN System in male participants with androgenic alopecia. An Active modulated light therapy REVIAN System will be compared to a Placebo Comparator non-active REVIAN System in participants using the device for a daily 10-minute treatment over the course of 26-weeks. At each follow-up visit, participants will be interviewed to determine if any adverse events (AEs) were experienced since the previous follow-up visit. All participants will be required to complete self-administering scalp hair growth and life quality questionnaires at each follow-up visit. Investigators will be required to complete global assessments of scalp hair growth for each enrolled participant at each follow-up visit. Macrophotography evaluations will be performed at baseline, 8-, 16-, and 26 weeks for all participants using standard Canfield blinded reviewer. Global photographs of superior and vertex scalp will be taken by participants and by PI to be assessed by a blinded reviewer once all photos have been captured for each participant per visit.

This study investigates the impact of mindfulness based cognitive therapy (MBCT) on social anxiety in adults with alopecia areata. A single-group case-series design will be adopted.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AD-208.
