Related Interview With Yale’s Dr. Brent King Providing His Prospective
Watch Spencer Kobren’s in-depth interview with Assistant Professor of Dermatology at Yale University School of Medicine, Dr. Brett King, as he discusses, how with the help of Dr. Angela Christiano’s original groundbreaking research, he reversed the hair loss process in a young man who suffered with alopecia areata for most of his life. This interview was posted earlier this year and illustrates the rate of progress with JAK inhibitors since this interview was conducted. There is no doubt that while researchers remain conservative when it comes to time lines and discussing the effects of JAK inhibitors for the treatment of common male pattern hair loss, significant progress has been made since the interview with Dr. King and there is no doubt that AGA is in their sights.

That "slut" is a woman who has lived with AA and dedicated her life and laboratory work to helping people and she has helped millions. She is honest and is doing more than 99.9999 of the labs dedicated to hair loss research. You should watch what you say and show a little respect a** hole.Comment

Your imbecile, I wasn't calling Dr Christiano a slut, I was calling Mother Nature ! Oh, wait, now I can't call Mother Nature a slut either, even tho she is an unjust, insidious, hierachical bitch? Man you're indeed one very forgiving lad, how can you love Mother Nature after what she has done to you? lolComment

Does that mean they are testing them on aga? And if not, then why? I think all of us simply wanted to hear that they would at least test it, and from what Christiano said in that interview, that didn't seem to be the case. She pretty clearly stated that they cannot "repurpose" the drug and do trials. Haven't they already repurposed it for AA?? Why is this all so cryptic? I understand that full clinical trials are expensive and complicated, but the fundamental question remains- why does christiano's lab and brett king's lab feel comfortable rubbing this stuff on someone with AA and not someone with aga? If it's so easy to see whether it works or not, then why not try it? Spencer discourages people from doing this stuff themselves, but in the case of aga, scenarios like this leave people with no other alternative.Comment

I have no idea yet. I'm going to print out some of these news articles that point to it being beneficial to hair and see if she'll go for any of it. it's not like I need 30 or 60 pills, just enough to make maybe a 1% solution to test for a monthComment

Big question to any of you guys.
So lets say i had AA and want to try these drugs off label, how does my dr go about finding what concentration and vehicle were used in rhe previous successful tests??
That info has to be availble somewhere, so other doctors who want to prescribe off label can do so, right? Or does each dr just shoot blindly at this?Comment

You would probably need to get in contact with those doctors and ask. One of them was the guy Spencer interviews in a video he posted in this thread.
I think that if this works for you there would be a a much greater media frenzi than there was for the AA patient. Dr Christiniano says results could begin within a few days. Good luck.Comment

Why has Dr Brett King not trialled the cream on himself for MPB if he can get prescriptions for his patients with AA?Comment
