What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Main Study: Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) Until Follow-up Visit
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. An AE was considered treatment emergent if the event had start date on or after the first dosing date of this study.
Measured: From start of study intervention (Day 1) until follow-up visit (4 weeks after last dose in Treatment period 1) (Up to Month 40)
Main Study: Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) and Adverse Events (AEs) Leading to Discontinuation Until Follow-up Visit
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. An SAE was any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: resulted in death; required inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization; was life-threatening; resulted in persistent disability/incapacity; was a congenital anomaly/birth defect; other important medical events. AEs leading to discontinuation included participants who had an AE record that indicated that the AE caused the participant to be discontinued from the study or that action taken with study treatment was drug withdrawn.
Measured: From start of study intervention (Day 1) until follow-up visit (4 weeks after last dose in Treatment period 1) (Up to Month 40)
Main Study: Number of Participants According to Categorization of Vital Signs Data Until Follow-up Visit
Vital signs including blood pressure included systolic blood pressure (SBP) [Millimeters of mercury, mmHg]) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) and pulse rate [beats per minute (bpm)] were measured using an automated device in a sitting position after at least 5 minutes of rest for the participant in a quiet setting without distractions. Criteria for vital sign abnormalities included: SBP<90mmHg, DBP<50 mmHg and pulse rate<40mmHg.

Main Study: Percentage of Participants Achieving Response Based on Severity of Alopecia Tool (SALT) Overall Score <=10 at Months 1, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 28, 32 and 36
SALT is a quantitative assessment of AA severity based on the scalp terminal hair loss. A visual aid was utilized showing the division of the scalp hair into four quadrants (back, top of scalp, right side and left side), with each of the four quadrants given an accurate determination of the percentage of scalp surface area covered, representing 24%, 40%, 18%, and 18% of the total scalp surface area, respectively. Percentage of hair loss in these areas is multiplied by percent surface area of the scalp in that area. SALT score is the sum of percentage of hair loss in all areas and ranged from 0 (no hair loss) to 100 (complete scalp hair loss) with lower score indicating less hair loss. The SALT overall score included any hair loss regardless of etiology (e.g., including scalp hair loss due to both androgenetic alopecia and AA). In this outcome measure, percentage of participants with SALT overall score <= 10 were reported. 95% CI was calculated based on normal approximation.
Measured: At Months 1, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 28, 32 and 36
Main Study: Percentage of Participants Achieving Response Based on Alopecia Areata (AA) SALT Score <=10 at Months 1, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 28, 32 and 36
SALT is a quantitative assessment of AA severity based on scalp terminal hair loss. Scalp hair was divided into four quadrants (back, top of scalp, right side and left side), with each given an accurate determination of the percentage of scalp surface area covered, representing 24%, 40%, 18%, and 18% of the total scalp surface area, respectively. Percentage of hair loss in these areas is multiplied by percent surface area of scalp in that area. SALT score=sum of percentage of hair loss in all areas and ranged from 0 (no hair loss) to 100 (complete scalp hair loss) with lower score indicating less hair loss. SALT AA Score = SALT overall score minus SALT AGA score, where SALT overall score included any hair loss regardless of etiology and SALT AGA score included scalp hair loss only due to androgenetic alopecia. SALT AA score ranged from 0 (no hair loss) to 100 (complete scalp hair loss), with lower score indicating less hair loss. 95% CI was calculated based on normal approximation.

Main Study: Percentage of Participants Achieving Response Based on AA SALT Score <=20 at Months 1, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 28, 32 and 36
SALT is a quantitative assessment of AA severity based on scalp terminal hair loss. Scalp hair was divided into four quadrants (back, top of scalp, right side and left side), with each given an accurate determination of the percentage of scalp surface area covered, representing 24%, 40%, 18%, and 18% of the total scalp surface area, respectively. Percentage of hair loss in these areas is multiplied by percent surface area of scalp in that area. SALT score=sum of percentage of hair loss in all areas and ranged from 0 (no hair loss) to 100 (complete scalp hair loss) with lower score indicating less hair loss. SALT AA Score = SALT overall score minus SALT AGA score, where SALT overall score included any hair loss regardless of etiology and SALT AGA score included scalp hair loss only due to androgenetic alopecia. SALT AA score ranged from 0 (no hair loss) to 100 (complete scalp hair loss), with lower score indicating less hair loss. 95% CI was calculated based on normal approximation.

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
This is a global Phase 3 study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of an investigational study drug (called PF-06651600) in adults and adolescents (12 years and older) who have alopecia areata. Eligible patients from the prior studies B7931005 (NCT02974868) and B7981015 (NCT03732807) will have an opportunity to enroll as well as patients who have not previously participated in either of these studies. The study is open-label and all patients entering the study will receive active study drug.
A sub-study of approximately 60 adult patients who are participating in the B7981032 study will be conducted at select sites in the US, Australia and Canada. The sub-study will evaluate the immune response to tetanus and meningococcal vaccines in patients who have received a minimum of 6 months of 50 mg PF-06651600.

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 6 inclusion and 6 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 9 Apr 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 144 sites in United States, Poland, Canada, Russia, China and 12 more countries. 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. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 14 Aug 2025). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
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?
Main Study: Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) Until Follow-up Visit (time frame: From start of study intervention (Day 1) until follow-up visit (4 weeks after last dose in Treatment period 1) (Up to Month 40)). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04006457, which also lists 10 linked publications.
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 9 Apr 2026.
