Late alopecia is defined as incomplete hair regrowth > 6 months following cytotoxic chemotherapy or from initiation of endocrine therapy. It has been reported in up to 25-30% of cancer survivors and is associated with decreased quality of life and reduced dose intensity of cancer therapies.

Minoxidil is an aminopyridine potassium channel opener, resulting in vasodilation and premature entry of resting hair follicles into the anagen (growth) phase and increase in hair follicle size. This study aims to assess clinical outcomes and adverse events of oral minoxidil for the treatment of cancer therapy-related late alopecia.
