Robert Yu, CEO of Yuyu Pharma is presenting at the World Congress for Hair Research.
Dutasteride inhibits both Type I and Type II 5-alpha reductase which act to transform testosterone, a male hormone, into a DHT hormone. In scientific studies, excess DHT is understood to be the cause of hair loss.
Wonsang Robert Yu, CEO of Yuyu Pharma said "Dutasteride has been approved and is prescribed to patients with AGA in Korea and Japan. But it is not approved as a hair loss treatment in the U.S. and Europe. We hope to do trials to get AGA on-label in both US and Europe."
