First seen Apr 19, 2026 · Last updated Apr 24, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study tests a daily pill called deucravacitinib in 20 adults with two types of scarring hair loss (CCCA and FFA). The goal is to see if the drug can reduce inflammation and scarring on the scalp over 48 weeks. Participants take the medication for the entire study period, so it is a disease-control approach, not a cure.
