The efficacy and safety of LITFULO were evaluated in the pivotal study, ALLEGRO-2b/31‐3

ALLEGRO-2b/3 was a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 2b/3 study in patients, aged 12 years and older (N=718), with alopecia areata and 50% or more scalp hair loss, including AT and AU. Patients were randomised to receive ritlecitinib or placebo once-daily for 24 weeks. After 24 weeks, all patients received ritlecitinib and there was no placebo control.*

  • The primary endpoint was the proportion of patients with SALT score ≤10 at Week 24

  • The key secondary endpoint was the proportion of patients with a PGI-C response of “moderately” or “greatly” improved at Week 24
  • Safety was monitored throughout the study

  • Efficacy results include patients who received LITFULO 50 mg (the recommended daily dose)
Ritlecitinib doses included 30 mg and 50 mg, with or without a 200 mg loading dose, once a day for 4 weeks. Ritlecitinib 10 mg was included for pharmacokinetic, dose-response, and safety assessments only, and was not included in statistical comparisons vs placebo. The sample size for this study accounted for multiplicity using a closed testing procedure at Week 24 to ensure control of Type 1 error for all comparisons between active treatment groups and placebo, excluding the ritlecitinib 10 mg treatment group. The Patient's Global Impression of Change (PGI-C) is a self-administered questionnaire that asks patients to evaluate the improvement or worsening of their alopecia areata as compared to the start of the study. Responses of “moderately” or “greatly” improved were used as the patient-driven responder definition.What is SALT?

The Severity of Alopecia Tool (SALT) helps visually assess the extent of scalp hair loss.3,4

The SALT score equals the sum of the proportions of scalp hair loss per quadrant3

The SALT score measures hair loss on a scale of 0 (no scalp hair loss) to 100 (complete scalp hair loss). For example, SALT 10 can be defined as 10% scalp hair loss and/or 80% scalp hair coverage1,3
