Lb948 AI-Based Customization in Hair Loss Treatment: A 6-Month Clinical Trial with Transepidermal Water Loss and Scanning Electron Microscopy Analysis

Developing hair monitoring technology to track scalp and hair changes over time. It aims to provide insights into the effectiveness of hair loss treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.

A user created a web app called TrichoMetrics to track hair loss using photos and metrics like density and thinning. The app supports tracking treatments like Minoxidil and finasteride, with features for setting baselines, comparing progress, and logging treatment adherence.

David Barreto shared that a London-based research group is conducting a 12-month trial for a new nutraceutical treatment for pattern hair loss, designed with Dr. Carlos Puig. The trial aims to provide robust data, with results expected in 1-2 years, potentially representing a significant advancement since finasteride’s introduction in 1997.

The conversation is about seeking updates on new hair loss treatments, specifically mentioning scube3 and GT20029, with one person mentioning HMI_115 as showing promising results.

GT20029 is a new hair loss treatment in Phase 3 trials in China, using PROTAC technology to target androgen receptors, potentially with fewer side effects than finasteride and minoxidil. VDPHL01, a second-generation minoxidil, is also mentioned as potentially more effective.

A new hair loss treatment using dermal exosomes can restore up to 90% of lost hair in mice. Users discuss potential human trials and compare it to Minoxidil and Finasteride.
