Genes associated with alopecia areata are associated
with other autoimmune diseases including rheumatoid
arthritis type 1 diabetes and celiac disease ndash
autoimmune diseases with pre-existing treatments

Discovery translates into to effective clinical trials and
development of drugs that specifically target the mechanism causing onset of alopecia areata

AGE OF ONSET vs AA INDIVIDUALS AFFECTED
5050 AA vs 859 controls ndash age of onset
57 with early onset of AA before age 20
Males develop AA 25 yrs earlier than females
AU and AT onset is earlier than AAP AAT (plt00001)
AT occurs 5 years earlier than AU
AU reported 4 years earlier than AAT (assuming other factors are constant)
AU is significantly associated with nail involvement

with other autoimmune diseases including rheumatoid
arthritis type 1 diabetes and celiac disease ndash
autoimmune diseases with pre-existing treatments
Scalp biopsy biomarker study 130 profiling AA RNA
Discovery translates into to effective clinical trials and
development of drugs that specifically target the mechanism causing onset of alopecia areata

Genes associated with alopecia areata are associated
with other autoimmune diseases including rheumatoid
arthritis type 1 diabetes and celiac disease ndash
autoimmune diseases with pre-existing treatments
Scalp biopsy biomarker study 130 profiling AA RNA
Discovery translates into to effective clinical trials and
development of drugs that specifically target the mechanism causing onset of alopecia areata
Example JakStat inhibitors
gt6000 AA are registered but DNA not collected ndash lack of access
Transfer of data and specimens to NAAFGSS
Samples to investigators who apply with IRB approved protocol
No approved therapy for a disease that affects 1-2 of the population
AA patients checked a box for desire to participate in clinical trials ndash 5 centers across US
