October 2023 in “Journal of Dermatological Treatment” This study evaluated the effectiveness and safety of baricitinib, a JAK-inhibitor, in 50 patients with severe alopecia areata (AA) over 36 weeks in a real-world setting. Patients received 4 mg of baricitinib daily, and results showed a significant reduction in the Severity of Alopecia Tool (SALT) score, with 54.6% achieving a SALT score of 20 or less by week 36. This response rate was higher than that reported in previous phase-III clinical trials. Baricitinib was well-tolerated, with no serious adverse events leading to discontinuation, although some patients experienced hypercholesterolemia and elevated creatine phosphokinase. The study supports the use of baricitinib for severe AA, aligning with clinical trial data, but suggests further research is needed to confirm long-term effectiveness and safety.
