Eli Lilly and Incyte announced a positive opinion from the European Medicines Agency's CHMP for OLUMIANT (baricitinib) to treat adults with severe alopecia areata. This opinion signals the potential for the first oral treatment and JAK inhibitor for severe alopecia areata in the EU, pending final approval from the European Commission, expected in the next 1-2 months.
