Official title

A Phase 3, Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, and Pharmacokinetics (PK) of Baricitinib in Children From 6 Years to Less Than 18 Years of Age With Alopecia Areata

The first row holds the registered conditions that placed this trial on the pipeline; the second holds everything else the sponsor registered on the same record. Both are shown, and shown apart rather than shaded differently, because leaving the second out would make this trial look more like a hair-loss study than its registration says it is — and because a distinction carried only by colour is not a distinction for every reader.

What it measures

1. Percentage of Participants Achieving an Absolute Severity of Alopecia Tool (SALT) ≤20

   Time frame: Week 36

Primary outcome measures only, as registered. What a trial chose to measure, and when, is the most informative thing about it that is knowable before it reports — a hair-count endpoint at 24 weeks and a patient-satisfaction endpoint at 12 weeks are not the same study.

"Estimated" and "actual" are the registry's own labels: an estimated date is a plan, and plans move. A date is printed at the precision it was registered at: a primary completion registered as 2028-03 is a month, and rendering it as 1 March 2028 would invent a day the sponsor did not register.

Results

This trial has not reported results. ClinicalTrials.gov holds no results record for it. That is the ordinary state of a trial that is running or about to run, and it means there is nothing here to tell you about whether the intervention works — including nothing negative. If this page implied otherwise it would be wrong.
