About this study

Official title: Clinical Study for the Assessment of the Hair Growth Efficacy and Safety of a Cosmetic Investigational Product, After Repeated Applications for 24 Weeks, Under Normal Conditions of Use, in the Asian Adult Subjects With Androgenic Alopecia

The purpose of this study is to assess whether cosmetic investigational product containing NGF-574H is safe and effective in the treatment of androgenic alopecia in asian adults.

Read the detailed description

NGF-574H is a obtained by collection of paracrine factors secreted by human umbilical cord blood-derived mesenchymal stem cell that was exposed in vitro to an artificially designed environment mimicking alopecia state in hair follicles to prime the composition of the paracrine factors optimized for hair growth. This study is to assess and confirm whether NGF-574H is safe and effective in the treatment of androgenic alopecia in asian adults.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
NGF-574HExperimentalNGF-574H is hair serum with 5% conditioned media of umbilical cord blood-derived stem cells containing various trophic factors that help alleviate hair loss. NGF-574H will be directed to use on hair and scalp by subject her/himself at home twice a day (in the morning and evening) for 24 weeks.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in mean total hair density (hair/cm2)

    • The hair density by phototrichogram for 24 weeks application, in comparison to initial value (baseline) and/or placebo product.
    • Measurement of hair density by phototrichogram (Canfield): change in mean total hair density (hair/cm^2)
    • Statistical analysis: Time and product effects (p<0.05)

    Measured: 0, 6, 12 and 24 weeks

  2. Compare visual assessment before and after cosmetic treatment

    Visual Assessment using the clinical picture by an investigator: 7 point score (-3 to 3) Visual assessment by a subject (Self-Assessment): 7 point score (-3 to 3)

    Measured: 0, 6, 12 and 24 weeks

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Change in mean Telogen hair density

    Measurement of telogen hair density, in comparison to initial value (baseline) and/or placebo product.

    Measured: 0, 6, 12 and 24 weeks

  2. Change in mean Anagen hair density

    Measurement of anagen hair density, in comparison to initial value (baseline) and/or placebo product.

    Measured: 0, 6, 12 and 24 weeks

  3. Change in hair growth speed

    Measurement of hair growth speed, in comparison to initial value (baseline) and/or placebo product.

    Measured: 0, 6, 12 and 24 weeks

  4. Change in hair diameter

    Measurement of hair diameter, in comparison to initial value (baseline) and/or placebo product. Measure hair diameter using electronic outside micrometer.

    Measured: 0, 6, 12 and 24 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing conditioned media of umbilical cord blood-derived stem cells in people with Androgenic Alopecia, run by Medipost Co Ltd. at 1 site in South Korea.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 19 inclusion and 13 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Aug 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in mean total hair density (hair/cm2) (time frame: 0, 6, 12 and 24 weeks). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Aug 2019.
