Summary

A clinical trial to assess the effects and safety of PRP activated with pulsed electrical fields (PEFA-PRP) compared with unactivated PRP when used to treat AGA.

The design of this small-scale, phase 1b/2a clinical trial is to demonstrate that pulsed electric field activation of autologous PRP results in a controlled release of platelet growth factors and other biologically active molecules that will have a benefit effect on the non-cycling hair follicles in the treated scalp compared to non-activated PRP. This single-center, auto-controlled study will compare the clinical benefit of PEFA-PRP versus non-activated PRP treatment of male patients with AGA.

Conditions

Interventions

BIOLOGICAL

Autologous platelet-rich plasma

PRP created using a commercially available system will be used for treatment. PEFA-PRP will be created by subjecting PRP to a pulsed electrical field in a specially designed instrument developed by sponsor. Two 9 cm2 contralateral regions of interest (ROI) on the scalp will be treated with approximately 6mL of either PRP or PEFA-PRP by subcutaneous injection.
