December 2024 in “Clinical and Experimental Dermatology” The study examines the effects of switching from baricitinib, a JAK1/2 inhibitor, to ritlecitinib, a JAK3/TEC inhibitor, in patients with severe alopecia areata who had inadequate or no response to baricitinib. The findings demonstrate that ritlecitinib significantly improves hair regrowth, quality of life, and psychological well-being in these patients. The study suggests that a lack of response to one JAK inhibitor does not necessarily predict failure with another, indicating potential for ritlecitinib as an effective treatment option for severe alopecia areata.
