Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Adult (≥18 years of age and a weight of ≥40 kg at the time of signing the informed consent)
* Moderate, severe, or very severe Alopecia Areata (AA), as determined by meeting the following criteria:

1. Clinical diagnosis of AA with no other etiology of hair loss (e.g., telogen effluvium, androgenetic alopecia, etc.)
2. At least 30% scalp hair loss, as defined by a SALT score ≥30
3. Current episode of hair loss lasting at least 6 months and not exceeding 7 years at the time of Screening. Participants who have AA for longer than 7 years may be enrolled if episodes of regrowth, spontaneous or under treatment, have been observed on the affected areas over the past 7 years
4. No appreciable change (i.e., change exceeding 20 points on SALT score) in terminal hair regrowth within 6 months

Exclusion Criteria

* Known history of androgenic alopecia or female pattern hair loss prior to AA
* Other types of alopecia (including, but not limited to traction and scarring alopecia, telogen effluvium, diffuse type of AA)
* History or presence of hair transplants
* Other scalp disease that may impact AA assessment or require topical treatment (including, but not limited to scalp psoriasis, seborrheic dermatitis, actinic keratosis)
