Inclusion Criteria

* 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.

Exclusion Criteria

* 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).
