The National Alopecia Areata Foundation estimated that 6.8 million Americans are affected by this auto-immune skin condition. With the large number of citizens affected, it is great news that clinical trials are showing success. HPIHair stays on top of these trials to keep our clients informed.
Phase 3 clinical trials using a common arthritis drug are showing that one in three patients with a severe skin disease were able to regrow hair after being treated with this drug.
From Yale News: “The study is based on Phase 3 clinical trials using baricitinib, a Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor, to treat alopecia areata, an often disfiguring skin disease characterized by rapid loss of scalp hair, and sometimes eyebrows and eyelashes.
