      learn HMI-115

      much-hyped research compound targeting prolactin receptor in scalp
      • What is HMI-115 and how is it different from common treatments like minoxidil? HMI-115 (BAY 1158061) is an investigational monoclonal antibody that blocks the prolactin receptor, not a GnRH antagonist. It is given by injection in trials and is not approved anywhere; minoxidil is an approved topical vasodilator with decades of published data, while HMI-115's hair-loss trial results remain unpublished.
