Brief summary

Clinical Study to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of CS-001 as a treatment for Canities (Grey Hair)

Detailed description

CS-001 is a small molecule that affects lysosomal storage and transfer of melanin from hair follicle melanocytes. In vitro and a small pilot study demonstrated re-pigmentation of grey hair following CS-001 application. The aim of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of CS-001 as a treatment for grey hair.
