New hope for kids with hair loss: drug trial aims to regrow scalp hair

NCT ID NCT05866562

Summary

This study is testing whether a medication called dupilumab can help regrow hair in children and teenagers with moderate-to-severe alopecia areata, an autoimmune condition that causes hair loss. About 76 participants, aged 6 to 18, will receive either the drug or a placebo via injection for 48 weeks, followed by an extended treatment period. The main goal is to see if dupilumab reduces scalp hair loss more effectively than the placebo.
