Abstract

Hydroxychloroquine, mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), and methotrexate (MTX) are common agents used to treat lichen planopilaris (LPP). However, there are no FDA-approved therapies for LPP, and the therapeutic efficacy of these agents is not well-described. We sought to evaluate the use and efficacy of these agents. We performed a retrospective chart review of patients at Wake Forest Baptist Health who received MMF, MTX, or hydroxychloroquine from 8/2020 to 8/2021 for LPP. A total of 31 patients ages 40-60 were included.
