Doctors seek best first treatment for Kids' hair loss

NCT ID NCT07381556

Summary

This study aims to find out which of two common medications works better for children with moderate-to-severe alopecia areata, a condition causing patchy or total hair loss. Children and teens (ages 2-17) starting their first systemic treatment will choose, with their parents, to take either cyclosporine or methotrexate. Researchers will track hair regrowth and quality of life over 9 months to see which medicine provides better results in real-world care.
