About This Study

This study will help researchers learn whether an investigational topical (on the skin) drug is safe for use in adults who have advanced hair loss. “Investigational” means that this drug is still being evaluated and is not approved by the Federal Drug and Food Administration (FDA).

This research study will require a 7-night stay in our comfortable study clinic. Study staff will apply the investigational drug and perform assessments daily. Participants will be monitored closely to watch for side effects and to understand how the drug behaves in the body. Study participants may be compensated up to $3,000 for their time and study-related expenses.

In order to participate, you must meet these minimum requirements*:

  • Adult aged 18 to 55 years
  • For males: Must have advanced male pattern baldness in front and back of head
  • For females: Must have advanced hair thinning or loss

*This is not a complete list of requirements for participation. Further discussion with the study team about your health history is required for study eligibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Doctors and scientists are constantly discovering new medications and devices that may help prevent, detect, diagnose, control, and treat illnesses. A research study or clinical trial is a scientific study that tests these new discoveries for safety and how well they work. Research studies depend upon the participation of volunteers.

Participation in a research study is completely voluntary. In all research studies, qualified potential participants are first informed about the research study in detail. After receiving this information, all participants must give their consent in writing to proceed. Some research studies involve more tests and doctor visits than the participant would normally have for an illness or condition.

Participants will not receive any medical benefit from participating in this study. However, this research study may yield new information that could benefit people in the future by helping to answer questions about the safety of the investigational drug. Study participants will be compensated for their time and travel.

Before participating in a research study, volunteers must meet specific requirements. These requirements are based on various factors, such as age, medical history, current health status, current medications, and allergies. The circumstances that allow a person to participate are called Inclusion Criteria and those that prevent participation are called Exclusion Criteria. These requirements are used to ensure the accuracy of the study as well as the safety of all participants. We will not know whether you satisfy all study requirements until we speak with you and, if appropriate, complete a screening assessment at our facilities.

Health Insurance is NOT required to participate.

You will not be charged for the investigational drug, study-related procedures and tests, or study visits.
