Results

SHED-CM was effective for 75% of subjects regardless of disease severity, concomitant DHT-inhibitor use, and age. We also found that clinical hair status evaluated by absolute values of three quantitative trichoscopic factors (maximum hair diameter, vellus hair rate, and multi-hair follicular unit rate) showed a good correlation with H-N C stages, and what is more, a scoring system of these three factors can be a possible predictor of SHED-CM efficacy.

Baseline Characteristics

We first screened 88 healthy male AGA patients with vertex shedding who visited the dermatology department of Tokyo Midtown Skin and Aesthetic Clinic from March 2021 to December 2022. All subjects had a physical examination and blood test to exclude severe systemic diseases, or hair loss diseases other than AGA. Those receiving DHT-inhibitors (oral finasteride or dutasteride) for less than 6 months or other AGA treatment were excluded. Among them, 33 subjects aged 27 to 69 were enrolled.

Participant flow

Manual microinjections of SHED-CM in affected areas were administered in deep dermis with 34G quadruple-tip needles,injecting 0.1 mL into each injection site, 1 cm apart. A total volume of 4.5 mL was injected each session.Before the treatment and at the 3rd, 6th, and 9th month (T3, T6, T9 month) after the initial treatment, global and close contact trichoscopic photographs were taken to evaluate hair status. All subjects were classified by H-N C at baseline (T0) and subsequent improvements were noted. Trichoscopic images were taken with a dermocamera around the hair whorls. the benchmark of the measurement area was set within a 5 x 5 mm whorl centering grid measuring hair shaft diameters (HD), hair count of each follicular unit, total number of follicular unit (TFU).

Adverse events

Mild adverse events, such as small hemorrhages and needle pain at the injection sites, were observed in all subjects on treatment day. Neither existed at the next day of treatment.

Outcome measures

1) Correlation between H-N C and trichoscopical factors
2) Scoring system of three quantitative trichoscopic factors (3QTF)
3) Efficacy of SHED-CM treatment evaluated by H-N C and 3QTF
