Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if local scalp injection of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes (hUCMSC-Exos) can treat androgenetic alopecia (AGA) in male patients with AGA.

The main question it aims to answer is:

Does hUCMSC-Exos injection improve hair regrowth compared with placebo?

Researchers will compare hUCMSC-Exos injection to placebo injection to see if hUCMSC-Exos leads to superior efficacy in hair follicle regeneration, as measured by changes in hair density, hair thickness, and patient-reported outcomes.

Participants will:

Receive randomized, double-blinded local scalp injections of either hUCMSC-Exos or placebo

Attend scheduled follow-up visits for hair assessment and safety monitoring

Undergo photography, trichoscopy, and complete quality-of-life or psychosocial burden questionnaires as applicable

Conditions

  • Androgenetic Alopecia (AGA)

Interventions

DRUG

Human Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cell-Derived Exosomes

Sterile exosome suspension derived from human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUCMSC-Exos). Administered via intradermal scalp injection at 0.05 mL per point, 1 cm spacing, approximately 4 mm depth. Treatment repeated once every 4 weeks for a total of 3 sessions.

OTHER

Normal Saline (0.9% NaCl)

Sterile 0.9% normal saline injection. Administered via intradermal scalp injection using the same protocol as the experimental group: 0.05 mL per point, 1 cm spacing, approximately 4 mm depth, once every 4 weeks for a total of 3 sessions.
