About this trial

This study tests whether XVIE, an investigational injectable product made from processed human amniotic fluid, is safe and may help regrow hair in adults with androgenetic alopecia (common pattern hair loss). XVIE contains growth factors and extracellular vesicles that may stimulate hair follicle activity. Thirty participants will be randomly assigned to receive either XVIE or a saline placebo injected into the scalp in two treatment sessions, 90 days apart. Neither participants nor study staff will know which treatment is being given. Participants will be followed for 6 months. The main goal is to evaluate safety. A secondary goal is to assess whether hair count, density, or coverage improves.

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Decellularized allogeneic human amniotic fluid

    Biological/Vaccine

    Decellularized allogeneic human amniotic fluid (hAF) processed by centrifugation and sterile filtration to remove cellular components while preserving bioactive growth factors, extracellular vesicles, and hyaluronic acid. Supplied as a ready-to-use 2.0 mL frozen liquid in a borosilicate glass vial. Administered undiluted via intradermal scalp injection across 20 sites (0.1 mL per site, 4-5 mm depth, 30-gauge needle). Manufactured by Nova Vita Laboratories, LLC.

  • Sodium chloride 0.9% injectable solution

    Drug

    Sterile 0.9% sodium chloride for injection supplied in 2.0 mL borosilicate glass vials identical in appearance, packaging, and labeling to the active product. Administered via intradermal scalp injection across 20 sites (0.1 mL per site, 4-5 mm depth, 30-gauge needle) at Day 0 and Day 90.

Treatment groups

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Number of participants with treatment-emergent adverse events (TE-AEs) and treatment-emergent serious adverse events (TE-SAEs) as assessed by CTCAE v5.0

Incidence, severity, and relatedness of all TE-AEs and TE-SAEs graded per CTCAE v5.0, including protocol-defined adverse events of special interest: new-onset alopecia in previously unaffected scalp areas, decrease of 15% or greater in Total Area Hair Count (TAHC) within the injection zone relative to baseline, and Investigator-determined scarring alopecia not consistent with natural AGA progression.

Time frame
Baseline through Day 180

Secondary outcomes

1

Change in Total Area Hair Count (TAHC) as measured by Canfield HairMetrix Automated Imaging System

Change from baseline in total hair count within a defined target area (approximately 1.9 cm²) measured by Canfield HairMetrix automated imaging. Target area marked with scalp tattoo dots for precise repositioning at each visit.

Time frame
Baseline, Month 3 (Day 90), Month 6 (Day 180)
2

Change in hair density (hairs/cm²) as measured by Canfield HairMetrix Automated Imaging System

Change from baseline in hair density (hairs/cm²) within the defined target area measured by Canfield HairMetrix imaging.

Time frame
Baseline, Month 3 (Day 90), Month 6 (Day 180)
3

Change in mean hair shaft diameter (mm) as measured by Canfield HairMetrix Automated Imaging System

Change from baseline in mean hair shaft diameter/caliber (mm) within the defined target area measured by Canfield HairMetrix imaging.

Time frame
Baseline, Month 3 (Day 90), Month 6 (Day 180)
4

Change in global scalp coverage percentage as measured by SoCAI Global HairMap Imaging Platform

Change from baseline in scalp coverage percentage and continuous density score assessed by SoCAI Global HairMap AI-driven imaging platform with heat map visualization.

Time frame
Baseline, Month 3 (Day 90), Month 6 (Day 180)

Other outcomes

1

Change in vellus-to-terminal hair ratio as measured by hair caliber distribution analysis using Canfield HairMetrix Automated Imaging System

Change from baseline in vellus-to-terminal hair ratio within the target area assessed by hair caliber distribution analysis.

Time frame
Baseline, Month 3 (Day 90), Month 6 (Day 180)
2

Change in Total Area Hair Count (TAHC) durability as measured by Canfield HairMetrix Automated Imaging System between Treatment 2 and final visit

Comparison of efficacy outcomes between Month 3 (prior to Treatment 2) and Month 6 (3 months post-Treatment 2) to assess durability of response.

Time frame
Month 3 (Day 90) and Month 6 (Day 180)
3

Proportion of participants achieving clinically meaningful increase in Total Area Hair Count (TAHC) as measured by Canfield HairMetrix Automated Imaging System

Proportion of subjects achieving 10% or greater and 15% or greater increase in TAHC from baseline at Month 3 and Month 6.

Time frame
Month 3 (Day 90), Month 6 (Day 180)
