- Subjects who are sexually active with a female partner and are not surgically sterile ( vasectomy performed at least 6 months prior to treatment) must agree to refrain from sperm donation for at least 90 days after administration of their last dose of IP and inform their non-pregnant female sexual partner to use a highly effective form of birth control1 as described in the informed consent form. Note: Female partner must be confirmed according to subject to be non-pregnant at Visit 1/Screening and Visit 2/Baseline or at the visit when a subject identifies a new sexual partner.
A subject is ineligible to enter the study if he meets 1 or more of the following criteria:
- Subject has any dermatological disorders of the scalp on the regions that are bald and thinning with the possibility of interfering with the application of the IP or examination method, such as fungal or bacterial infections, seborrheic dermatitis, psoriasis, eczema, folliculitis, scars, or scalp atrophy.
- Subject has history or active hair loss due to diffuse telogen effluvium, alopecia areata, scarring alopecia, trichotillomania, or conditions/diseases other than AGA.
- Subject has any skin pathology or condition (e.g., uncontrolled thyroid disease, certain genetic disorders that involve hair growth or patterns) that, in the investigator's opinion, could interfere with the evaluation of the IP or requires use of interfering topical, systemic, or surgical therapy.
- Subject has any visible inflammatory skin disease, injury, or condition of their scalp that could compromise subject safety and/or interfere with the evaluation of local or systemic assessments performed during the study.
- Subject has history (within 6 months of Visit 1/Screening) of severe dietary or weight changes or history of eating disorder(s), which has resulted in hair loss, in the opinion of the investigator.
- Subject has a history of scalp reduction or notable trauma with related scarring, hair transplants, and/or hair weaves.

- Subject has used any topical scalp treatments for hair growth including minoxidil, hormone therapy, anti-androgen, or other agents known to affect hair growth within 12 weeks of Visit 2/Baseline.
- Subject has used any topical scalp over-the-counter (OTC) or cosmetic treatments known or reasonably believed to affect hair growth (e.g., brands such as Aminexil, Maxilene, Nioxin, Foltene) or hair growth products with saw palmetto, copper, etc. within 4 weeks of Visit 2/Baseline.
- Subject has used any topical scalp treatments that may have ancillary effects on hair growth including, but not limited to, corticosteroids, pimecrolimus, tacrolimus, and retinoids within 4 weeks of Visit 2/Baseline.
