The study tests the safety and effectiveness of an oral drug called VDPHL01 for women with Androgenetic Alopecia (AGA), a genetic condition where hair falls out due to hormone reactions. The study is "multi-center" (happening in different places) and "double-blind" (neither the participants nor the researchers know who gets the real drug or a placebo). It lasts about 13 months and involves 11 visits to the study site. Participants should be women aged 18-65 with mild to moderate AGA, generally healthy, and willing to keep their hairstyle and color the same.
