    topical treatment blocking androgen receptors to combat hair loss

    Pyrilutamide, also known as KX-826, is a topical non-steroidal anti-androgen being developed for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia (pattern hair loss). It works by blocking androgen receptors in hair follicles, which can help reduce hair loss and potentially promote hair regrowth.
