» We have also discovered that administration of lysine to patients results
» in a dramatic increase in the efficacy of known treatments for genetic hair
» loss (which term covers a number of conditions variously referred to as
» androgen-dependent alopecia, androgenic alopecia, androgenetic alopecia,
» common baldness, female baldness, diffuse hair loss and male pattern
» baldness).
»
» Thus, in a further aspect of the present invention there is provided a kit
» including a plurality of separate containers, each containing at least one
» active agent useful in a combination therapy for the treatment of genetic
» hair loss, wherein said kit includes L-lysine and at least one further
» active agent selected from minoxidil, anti-androgens, 5&#945;-reductase
» inhibitors, aromatase inhibitors and corticosteroids.
»
» There is also provided a therapeutic combination for the treatment of
» genetic hair loss comprising L-lysine and at least one further active agent
» selected from minoxidil, anti-androgens, 5&#945;-reductase inhibitors,
» aromatase inhibitors and corticosteroids.
»
» Typical examples of anti-androgens which can be used include cyproterone
» acetate, spironolactone, medroxyprogesterone acetate and flutamide which
» can, for example, be formulated for oral or topical administration. Type I,
» type II or mixed type I and type II 5 &#945;-reductase inhibitors can be
» used, e.g. finasteride. A typical example of a suitable
» corticosteroid is dexamethasone.
»
» In a preferred embodiment, the kit comprises L-lysine and at least one
» further active agent selected from minoxidil and one or more
» anti-androgens, which are preferably chosen from cyproterone acetate,
» spironolactone and medroxyprogesterone acetate. In a particularly preferred
» embodiment, the kit comprises L-lysine which is formulated for oral
» administration and minoxidil which is formulated for topical application.
»
» The co-administration of L-lysine with known treatments for genetic hair
» loss such as minoxidil and anti-androgens results in a significant
» improvement in the efficacy of the treatment. The reason for this
» improvement in efficacy is not currently understood.
