TL;DR Summary

Nektar Therapeutics reported that extended treatment with its experimental drug rezpeg led to meaningful hair growth in severe alopecia areata after one year, with 27% of participants reaching SALT Score 20 (80%+ scalp coverage). The response is comparable to or better than low-dose Olumiant, though not tested head-to-head, and Nektar plans to begin a Phase 3 trial later this year.
