About this trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if ABS-201 (a new medication) is safe and tolerable when used to improve hair growth in men and women. The trial will start with healthy volunteers and if safe, will treat participants with certain types of hair loss.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
What medical problems, if any, do participants experience when taking a single dose or many doses of ABS-201? How does the medication, ABS-201, compare to placebo (a look alike substance that does not contain any medication).
Participants who qualify for the trial will receive either ABS-201 or a placebo, and visit the study clinic for scheduled checkups and tests for approximately 1 year.
