Hair loss ointment study halted early – only 4 people enrolled
NCT ID NCT03651752
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a custom ointment called DPCP to help people with severe alopecia areata, a condition causing patchy or complete scalp hair loss. The goal was to see if the ointment could safely regrow hair. Only 4 people took part before the study was stopped early, so results are very limited.
