This study retrospectively evaluated the effectiveness of off-label baricitinib in children with severe alopecia areata and found that 50% achieved treatment goals, though psychological effects were noted and laboratory abnormalities occurred in 42.86% of patients.

In a retrospective clinical study, this research found that baricitinib is effective for alopecia areata, with 42.3% of patients achieving a significant reduction in hair loss by week 36, and 52.4% by week 52, outperforming previous trials.

This review assessed the clinical and cost-effectiveness of baricitinib, an oral treatment for severe alopecia areata in adults, to inform Canadian reimbursement recommendations, excluding Quebec.

In this study at Tohoku University Hospital, 41% of severe alopecia areata patients achieved significant hair regrowth with baricitinib treatment over 9 months, with predictors of better outcomes including shorter disease duration, female sex, initial mild disease, certain alopecia types, and prior IVMP therapy.

In this report, oral baricitinib improved both alopecia areata and immune thrombocytopenia in a 56-year-old patient, suggesting a potential dual benefit for these conditions, although regular platelet monitoring and hematology consultation are recommended.

In this study, the researchers reported that baricitinib improved hair loss in a real-world setting for Japanese adults with alopecia areata, with a 64.7% success rate at 60 weeks, though prolonged episodes reduced efficacy. Common side effects were acne and mildly decreased renal function.

Baricitinib helps regrow hair in severe alopecia areata and is safe, but more research is needed.

In this analysis of the BRAVE-AA trials, a significant number of patients with severe alopecia areata treated with baricitinib reached complete or nearly complete scalp coverage (SALT score ≤10 or ≤5) over 52 weeks, particularly among those with less severe baseline characteristics.

In this study, researchers found that patients with severe alopecia areata who respond to baricitinib treatment within six months may improve clinically within a year, while those with very severe disease may require at least a year for evidence of treatment effect.

This study of baricitinib in adults with severe alopecia areata found that after initial success, 10.9% of participants lost treatment response by Week 152. Factors like longer disease duration and severe baseline symptoms were more common in those losing response.

In this study, the authors reported that the laparoscopic single anastomosis sleeve ileal (SASI) bypass was associated with effective weight loss and improvement in obesity-related comorbidities within 6 months post-surgery.

This case report describes a child with alopecia areata and atopic dermatitis who showed significant improvement after treatment with baricitinib and corticosteroid ointment, suggesting their potential efficacy and safety.

This 104-week follow-up trial found that baricitinib is effective and safe for treating severe alopecia areata but requires continuous use to sustain hair regrowth. The drug is included in the NVDV guidelines and reimbursed by Dutch insurers for this purpose.

In this study on mice, a baricitinib-loaded microneedle patch enhanced hair growth in alopecia areata lesions (68% vs control: 33%, p < 0.05), suggesting it may deliver treatment effectively and pain-free, with fewer systemic side effects.

This study observed significant repigmentation in localized stable vitiligo lesions treated with oral baricitinib, with even more improvement when combined with topical tacrolimus, and reported no side effects.

In this retrospective study, baricitinib effectively improved alopecia areata in 78.7% of patients by the end of treatment, with significant hair regrowth observed, particularly in those with disease duration of four years or less, and showed no serious adverse events.

This study in a real-world setting found that baricitinib was effectively reducing disease severity in severe alopecia areata patients over 52 weeks, with 37.20% of participants achieving significant improvement and 72.40% experiencing mild or no adverse events.

This case report details the first use of baricitinib in a pediatric patient with immune thrombocytopenia and alopecia areata, showing successful treatment with increased platelet counts.

This case study reports a young male with alopecia universalis experienced significant hair whitening following baricitinib treatment, highlighting the need for further research on JAK inhibitors' impact on hair pigmentation and their underlying mechanisms.

In this study, researchers found that ritlecitinib, a JAK3/TEC inhibitor, significantly improves hair regrowth, quality of life, and psychological well-being in patients with severe alopecia areata who had inadequate or no response to baricitinib, a JAK1/2 inhibitor.

This study investigated using baricitinib-loaded mesenchymal stem cell exosomes injected locally in an alopecia areata mouse model and found that this method improved hair regrowth better than baricitinib or exosomes alone, potentially offering a new therapeutic approach for treating alopecia areata.

This study found that nearly 40% of patients with severe alopecia areata who showed eyebrow or eyelash regrowth on baricitinib 4 mg achieved significant scalp hair regrowth by the second year of treatment.

This study found that baricitinib, a Janus kinase inhibitor, was more effective than traditional treatments for severe alopecia areata, with higher rates of significant hair regrowth after 6 months, despite mild-to-moderate side effects and some instances of weight gain.

This study observed that patients with severe alopecia areata treated with baricitinib experienced increases in total cholesterol, LDL-C, and HDL-C, consistent with a JAK inhibitor class effect, but the mean increase was modest and lipid-lowering medication initiation was infrequent.

This study found extensive real-world and clinical trial exposure to baricitinib across various disease states, ages, and racial populations, contributing data to its overall profile.

This case report describes a 54-year-old Saudi woman with systemic lupus erythematosus and severe alopecia, where conventional treatments were ineffective. When belimumab was ineffective, baricitinib led to significant improvement in her condition, suggesting further research is needed to evaluate baricitinib's role in managing SLE.

This study reported that ritlecitinib 50 mg and baricitinib 4 mg showed similar efficacy in treating severe alopecia areata, with no significant difference in hair regrowth outcomes at Week 24, but there remains considerable uncertainty and a need for further research.

This study explores the neurobiology and genetics of barbering (hair and whisker biting) in laboratory rodents, and its potential links to stress, aggression, grooming, and stereotypic behaviors, highlighting its significance in experimental work with these animals.

This CADTH recommendation advises that Olumiant should be publicly reimbursed for treating severe alopecia areata in adults, provided conditions such as a 50% scalp hair loss and specific prescribing criteria are met.

This case report describes a patient with both rheumatoid arthritis and alopecia areata who showed improvement in both conditions after treatment with baricitinib monotherapy, highlighting the importance of personalized treatment approaches in managing co-occurring autoimmune diseases.
