Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Percent Change in Severity of Alopecia Tool (SALT) Score
SALT score range is from 0 (no hair loss) to 100 (100% hair loss). A positive percent change from baseline corresponds to a reduction in SALT score, and in this study study will be measured between baseline and 6 months.
6 Months
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Treatment Response Assessed as the Number of Participants With Hair Regrowth
6 Months
