New drug aims to regrow hair in severe alopecia

NCT ID NCT06060977

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This early-stage trial tested a drug called IMG-007 in 29 adults with alopecia areata who had lost at least half of their scalp hair. The main goal was to check safety, but researchers also measured hair regrowth using a standard tool. The study is now complete, and results will help decide if larger trials are warranted.
