Alopecia – Current Treatment – Treatment Algorithms: Claims Data Analysis – Alopecia Areata (US)

Alopecia areata (AA) is an inflammatory autoimmune skin disease characterized by the targeting of anagen hair follicles by the host immune system, resulting in varying degrees of hair loss. Topical / intralesional corticosteroids have historically dominated prescription treatment for AA. However, beginning in 2022, several therapies, all part of the JAK inhibitor family, have gained FDA approval for the treatment of severe AA: Eli Lilly’s Olumiant (baricitinib), Pfizer’s Litfulo (ritlecitinib), and Sun Pharma’s Leqselvi (deuruxolitinib [not yet commercially available]). With the AA treatment landscape continuing to evolve, this report offers insight into prescribing trends to help new players understand current treatment practices in AA and to define the market niche for emerging products.
