研究概览
简要总结
This is an interventional pilot study assessing the tolerability of needle-free delivery administration of ILTA with the Med-Jet as an alternative to conventional syringe and needle in patients with patchy pediatric alopecia areata. There will be a total of four (4) or five (5) visits necessary for study participation. The investigators hypothesize that the Med-Jet will have acceptable pain tolerability, efficacy, safety, and a positive impact on patient quality of life.

结局指标
主要结局
Determine Patient Tolerability of Needle-free Delivery of Intralesional Triamcinolone Using the Patient-reported Outcomes of a Pain Score Assessment and a Patient Survey.
时间窗: 12 weeks
For the pain score assessment, patients will rate their pain from the needle-free injection using the Wong-Baker FACES Scale and a numerical rating scale, in which score ranges from 0-10 where 0 is no pain and 10 is the worst pain imaginable.
次要结局

- Hair Regrowth of Treated Patch(12 weeks)
- Change in Alopecia Areata- Investigator Global Assessment (AA-IGA)(Baseline (Pre-treatment), 12 weeks (Post-treatment))
- Hair Regrowth of Non-treated Patch(12 weeks)
- Determine the Impact of Needle-free Delivery of Intralesional Triamcinolone on Quality of Life for Pediatric Alopecia Areata Using a Quality of Life Assessment.(Baseline (pre-treatment), 12 weeks (post-treatment))
- Patient Reported Hair Regrowth(12 weeks)
