Finasteride/latanoprost/minoxidil

Finasteride/latanoprost/minoxidil

Finasteride/latanoprost/minoxidil (developmental code name TH-07 or TH07) is a topical combination drug which is under development for the treatment of alopecia (hair loss). It is specifically a combination of finasteride (Propecia) (0.1%), a 5α-reductase inhibitor (5α-RI); latanoprost (Xalatan) (0.03%), a prostaglandin F2α analogue and prostaglandin F receptor agonist; and minoxidil (Rogaine) (5%), a KATP potassium channel opener. All three of these drugs have individually been shown to stimulate hair growth in the setting of alopecia, and both finasteride and minoxidil are approved and widely used for treatment of alopecia. Finasteride/latanoprost/minoxidil is under development by Triple Hair. As of December 2023, the drug is in phase 2 clinical trials.
