Study Overview

Brief Summary

Clinical Study to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of CS-002 (mTOR inhibitor) as a treatment for Canities (Grey Hair)

Detailed Description

CS-002 is a small molecule that is an mTOR ("mammalian target of rapamycin ") inhibitor. In vitro and a small pilot study demonstrated re-pigmentation of grey hair following CS-002 application. The aim of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of CS-002 as a treatment for grey hair.
