Summary

This early-stage trial tests a topical cream called CS-002, which blocks a protein called mTOR, to see if it can safely reverse grey hair. One hundred adults aged 30 to 65 with grey hair will apply the cream or a placebo for several weeks. Researchers will measure changes in greying severity using a special score.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a topical treatment to reverse or reduce grey hair without dye.
What could go wrong
This is an early Phase 1/2 trial with only 100 participants. The treatment may not work or could cause skin irritation. Results may not apply to all types of greying.
