The study evaluated the efficacy and safety of two Janus kinase inhibitors, Ritlecitinib and Brepocitinib, in patients with alopecia areata, showing promising results in improving hair loss. However, two patients in the Brepocitinib group experienced serious adverse events.
Background: Alopecia areata (AA) is an autoimmune form of hair loss with limited treatments. Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of the Janus kinase inhibitors ritlecitinib and brepocitinib in patients who have AA with >= 50% scalp hair loss. Methods: Patients were randomized to once-daily ritlecitinib, brepocitinib, or placebo. The primary efficacy endpoint was a 24-week change from baseline in the Severity of Alopecia Tool (SALT) score. The key secondary efficacy endpoint was the proportion of patients achieving 30% improvement in SALT score (SALT30). Results: The ritlecitinib, brepocitinib, and placebo groups included 48, 47, and 47 patients, respectively. At week 24, least-squares mean difference from placebo in SALT score change from baseline was 31.1 (95% confidence interval [CI], 18.8-43.5) for ritlecitinib and 49.2 (95% CI, 36.6-61.7) for brepocitinib (P < .0001 for both comparisons with placebo). SALT30 was achieved by 50% (90% CI, 38%-62%) of patients receiving ritlecitinib, 64% (90% CI, 51%-75%) receiving brepocitinib, and 2% (90% CI, 0%-9%) receiving placebo. Two patients experienced a serious adverse event (rhabdomyolysis) in the brepocitinib group only. Limitations: Only a single-dosage regimen of each study drug was included. Conclusion: Treatment with ritlecitinib or brepocitinib for 24 weeks was efficacious and generally well tolerated.
