Active clinical trials for "Alopecia"

According to the American Hair Loss Association, by the age of 35, two-thirds of American men will have some degree of appreciable hair loss, and by the age of 50, approximately 50 to 85% of men will have significant hair thinning. Hair is an essential aspect of human appearance and can have a significant impact on a person's self-esteem, mood and quality of life. Unfortunately, current treatment options can be costly, tedious or painful. They are also associated with numerous side effects. Here, the investigators aimed at evaluating the effect of a new food supplement on hair condition in young men suffering from hair loss. A second goal was to determine tolerability.

This purpose of this trial is to investigate the molecular signature of frontal fibrosing alopecia (FFA) and the effect of delgocitinib cream 2% on reversing the FFA disease signature in active lesions. The trial will also investigate the clinical effect of delgocitinib cream on FFA compared to a placebo cream.

This study is part of a broader project that proposes the characterization of what we call the "Entire-Systemic Axis". It aims to study whether the bacteria present in the human skin microbiota and in the human intestinal microbiota can play a role in the pathophysiology of Alopecia Areata (AA), a fact that has not been studied to date. Based on the supposed relationship between the human microbiota and AA, we have formulated the hypothesis that the dietary supplementation of specific probiotic strains, with functional capacities on mucocutaneous tissue and its adnexa, could benefit patients with AA, acting on the patients' microbiome profile.

This was comparative prospective study conducted on 40 subjects, diagnosed with alopecia areata of 40 the scalp, carried in a period from February 2020 and March 2021

Alopecia could be subdivided into two main groups of diseases: non-scarring alopecia, such as male pattern baldness, or alopecia areata (AA), in which hair follicles are preserved, yet quiescent, and scarring alopecia, also known as cicatricial alopecia (CA), in which hair follicles are irreversibly destroyed. CA leads to scarred areas, most commonly on the scalp, that cannot re-grow hair. Despite being a long-term condition, that often has significant impact on patients' well-being, available effective treatments for these diseases are lacking. In addition, the molecular abnormalities causing CA are largely unknown. The study team's research involves administrating patients a new investigational drug (a combined TYK/JAK inhibitor) which has been shown to be safe and well tolerated in clinical studies to date, and is being investigated in other conditions, such as AA. CA patients will be asked to provide small samples of skin and blood throughout the treatment period, to find out how they respond to the drug, and to attempt to better understand these diseases.

The objective of this study is to assess the hair growth efficacy of a Food for Special Medicinal Purposes (FSMP) Pantovigar® vegan after 3 and 6 months of intake.

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.

The New Viviscal Professional Strength is an oral food supplement specifically designed to promote hair growth for women suffering from temporary thinning hair. It does not contain hormones, drugs or industry by-products. Viviscal has been marketed in Europe for over 15 years. The purpose of this clinical research study is to evaluate certain physiological effects of Viviscal compared to placebo in forty (40) female subjects, ages 21-75 years of age with self-perceived thinning hair associated with poor diet, stress, hormonal influences or abnormal menstrual cycles when compared to using the placebo tablet.

This is an open-label pilot study of tofacitinib taken daily for 6 months in the treatment of moderate to severe AA, and alopecia totalis or universalis, followed by 6 months follow-up off drug to assess the incidence and timing of recurrence of disease or documentation of delayed response to treatment. There will be the option of increasing the treatment duration up to an additional 6 months beyond the initially scheduled 6 months of treatment, if clinically indicated, and at the discretion of the investigator.

A study to investigate clinical safety and effect on hair growth of FOL-005 in healthy volunteers. The study is divided in two parts, a single ascending dose (SAD) part and a multiple dose (MD) part.
