Baricitinib showed promising results, with a significant number of patients achieving a SALT score ≤20, indicating ≤20% scalp hair loss, and outperforming other therapies in hair regrowth. Approximately 30% of baricitinib patients achieved a SALT score ≤20, and nearly 50% reached SALT50, with 26% achieving SALT90.
