新药可能让斑秃患者毛发再生

斑秃不同于包括男性型秃发在内的其他类型的脱发，没有证据证明这种药物对后者也有疗效。专家们提醒说，即便就斑秃而言，目前也远远不能确定该疗法是否适用于大多数患者，以及是否存在较大的副作用或安全隐患。

The study is continuing, but so far a few participants did not regrow hair, said Dr. Julian Mackay-Wiggan, director of Columbia’s dermatology clinical research unit and an author of the study.

这项研究的发起者之一、哥伦比亚大学皮肤病学专业临床研究部主任朱利安·麦凯-维根(Julian Mackay-Wiggan)博士表示，研究仍在继续，但到目前为止，还有几个参与者并没重新长出毛发。

“It appears to work — not in everyone, but in the majority,” she said. “We need a lot more data on the long-term risks in healthy individuals. But it’s certainly very exciting in terms of hair growth. It was surprising how quickly and impressively the growth occurred.”

“它似乎对大部分人有效，但并非在每个人身上都能起作用，”她说。“我们还需要获得更多与健康人群长期使用该药物的风险有关的数据。但在促进毛发生长方面，其效果确实令人振奋。这种生长来得如此快速和明显，简直出人意料。”

Dr. Luis Garza, a dermatologist at Johns Hopkins Hospital who was not involved in the research, said the results were encouraging enough that he would consider prescribing ruxolitinib to patients who could not be treated with other methods and who understood potential side effects.
