ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is investigating a new treatment called KX-826 for men in China who are experiencing androgenetic alopecia, commonly known as male pattern baldness. The study is designed to find out if this topical solution can effectively help regrow hair and if it is safe to use. It will involve two parts: the first will explore the right dosage, and the second will confirm the findings. The trial is not currently recruiting participants.

To be eligible for this study, participants must be male, aged between 18 and 49 years, and have been diagnosed with male pattern baldness. They should be willing to follow the study guidelines, which includes maintaining their hairstyle and hair color throughout the trial. Participants will need to avoid certain medications and treatments that could interfere with the study results.
