LONDON, May 19, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Some sources have suggested that alopecia areata (AA) happens due to genetic susceptibility and environmental change. While there are off-label treatments used to manage AA, including systemic and localized therapies, there are no FDA-approved treatments for the condition. The most common treatment option is corticosteroid use, either administered as an injection intradermally (injected with intralesional corticosteroid triamcinolone), or applied topically as a cream, ointment, or gel.

Key Findings

In 2022, GlobalData estimates that the highest prevalent cases of AA will be in India and China, representing almost 40% and 35% of global cases, respectively. There are no approved therapies for AA and so limited treatment guidelines are available. Only recommendations related to conventional and off-label therapies are available for physicians for the management of AA. R&D activities have focused on developing targeted therapies such as JAK inhibitors due to the increased knowledge of the pathophysiology of AA and the contribution of autoimmunity to the loss of hair.
