Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in Severity of Alopecia Areata Tool (SALT) Score

    The SALT score indicates the sum area of scalp with hair loss and ranges from 0 - 100 (min-max), with higher scores indicating more hair loss. A negative change in SALT score indicates lesser (improvement) hair loss while positive high scores indicate more (worsening) hair loss.

    From baseline (Day 1) to Week 12 (Day 84)

Secondary Outcomes (13)

  • Summary of Absolute SALT Score

    At baseline (Day 1), Week 4 (Day 28), Week 8 (Day 56) and Week 12 (Day 84)

  • Summary of Change in SALT Score

    From baseline (Day 1) to Week 4 (Day 28), Week 8 (Day 56), and Week 12 (Day 84)

  • Summary of Relative Change in SALT Score

    From baseline (Day 1) to Week 4 (Day 28), Week 8 (Day 56), and Week 12 (Day 84)

  • Percentage of Patients Who Achieve 50% Improvement in the SALT Score

    At Week 12 (Day 84)

  • Hair Length

    At Week 4 (Day 28), Week 8 (Day 56) and Week 12 (Day 84)

  • +8 more secondary outcomes

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Subjects must have signed and dated informed consent after receiving verbal and written information about the clinical trial.
  • Subjects with unequivocal clinical diagnosis of moderate to severe scalp alopecia areata (patch type, totalis, universalis), as determined by the (sub) investigator, affecting a minimum of 30% scalp area at Visit 1 (Screening) and Visit 2 (Day 1, baseline).
  • Minimum 6 month duration of hair loss at Visit 1 (Screening). No upper limit time limit.
  • Subject must accept to not cut hair in the treated scalp areas during the trial.

You may not qualify if:

  • Females who are pregnant or are breast feeding.
  • Current signs of spontaneous hair regrowth.
  • Diffuse type alopecia areata.
  • Co-existing moderate to severe androgenic alopecia (Norwood-Hamilton stage IV-VI and Ludwig stage II and III)
  • Subjects with changed or expected changes in medication for thyroid disease within 6 month before Visit 1 (screening) or during the trial.
  • Systemic treatment with immunosuppressive drugs (e.g. methotrexate, cyclosporine, azathioprine), chloroquin derivatives, corticosteroids, or any other systemic therapy that in the opinion of the investigator could affect hair regrowth, within 6 weeks prior to randomization (inhaled or intra-nasal steroids corresponding to up to 1 mg prednisone for asthma or rhinitis may be used).
