Abstract

Janus kinase inhibitors are emerging treatment alternatives in various immune-mediated diseases including alopecia universalis.

Despite the promising potential in alopecia areata treatment, research evaluating the efficacy of different Janus kinase inhibitors and possible prognostic factors related with a more favorable response are warranted.
