Hair Loss Study: Understanding Male Pattern Baldness
Part of Skin clinical trials.
This research study examines what causes male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia) by studying hair, skin, and biological samples from men with hair loss and healthy men. The goal is to better understand why hair loss happens so scientists can develop better treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a male aged 25–30 or 60–65 years old

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests an investigational drug called OLX72021 for male pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia). It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective in healthy men with mild to moderate hair loss.
This trial tests a new medication called ABS-201 for hair loss. It will first see if the medicine is safe in healthy people, then test if it helps those with male or female pattern baldness.
This trial tests a once-daily scalp solution called KX-826 to help men with typical male pattern baldness grow hair and slow hair loss. It compares the active solution to a placebo (no active ingredient) to see if it works and is safe.
This trial tests if injecting donor stem cells into the scalp can help regrow hair in men with male pattern baldness. It may offer a new option for those who haven't found other treatments effective.
This trial tests a new oral (pill) form of minoxidil to help regrow hair in men with male-pattern baldness. Minoxidil is a known hair-growth medication, and this study evaluates whether taking it as a pill works safely and effectively.
This trial tests a new treatment using exosomes (tiny particles that help cells communicate) for male pattern baldness. It may help regrow hair or slow further loss.
