Milestones on a Three-Decade Journey Photo by Jay Roberts Photography Dear Friends,
Take a trip back in time with us. The year is 1981. Ronald Reagan is sworn in as the nation’s 40th president. Indiana Jones first cracks his whip in Raiders of the Lost Ark. “Bette Davis Eyes” rules the airwaves, at least until the arrival that summer of a small cable channel called MTV. The Dodgers beat the Yankees in six games to clinch the World Series. And a rare autoimmune disease that has afflicted men and women, children and adults since the beginning of recorded time at last meets its equal in the founding of an organization called the National Alopecia Areata Foundation (NAAF).
It may sound strange now but in 1981 we barely knew how to spell alopecia areata, let alone treat it. What we did know was that this was an unusually tenacious disease, and as such it would require an unusually tenacious organization, led and staffed by unusually tenacious people, to combat it. Researchers, board members, support counselors, staff— everyone affiliated with NAAF—would have to be uncommonly committed to supporting the people who suffer from alopecia areata, raising the awareness of their families and friends, and eradicating the disease itself.
While alopecia areata has plagued sufferers for several millennia, in just the past three decades NAAF has made bold strides in genetic and dermatological research barely imaginable in 1981. And NAAF will continue to do so until the causes of this disease are discovered, the people who are susceptible are protected, and alopecia areata is finally defeated. In 2011, our Treatment Development Program scored an almost dizzying amount of accomplishments—such as funding an alopecia areata autoantibody study at the University of Colorado, leveraging resources for a new alopecia areata biomarker study at Columbia University, and officially contracting with MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, Texas, to take over the responsibility for funding the National Alopecia Areata Registry.
Until alopecia areata is a thing of the past, our efforts remain unabated. Our peerless support network continues to make real differences in the lives of both individuals and their families. We are finding new ways to raise awareness, most recently through successful events with Major League Baseball teams. New media allows us to spread news, support, and hope through Facebook and Twitter in addition to more traditional venues like our website, informational materials, DVDs, electronic and print newsletters, the Ascot Fund and the Alopecia Areata Marketplace.
In 2011, we saw the cumulative effect, the real progress, stemming from thirty years of persistent effort. Today NAAF renews its pledge to provide all of its energy, resources and guidance to our community; we hope you know we will always advocate, always research, always fight beside you and with you on behalf of people with alopecia areata. NAAF and its members stand more united than ever in a common purpose staked by three decades of research, support and awareness.
One can only imagine what the future years will bring. . . .
Brian Ter Haar Vicki Kalabokes Chair, Board of Directors, 2012 President and Chief Executive Officer
The nation’s leading nonprofit watchdog group, the BBB Wise Giving Alliance, has found that NAAF operates with the utmost integrity, transparency, and accountability. NAAF is proud to be one of the very few nonprofits (out of the almost 1.5 million nonprofits in the United States) that meet these strict standards. In addition, NAAF meets all 44 of the standards required for membership in the National Health Council. 1 “Thank you for the opportunity to learn and be part of this year’s conference. It is a wonderful thing to have the scholarship fund. It made the conference happen for me! Thanks for all efforts.”
• NAAF’s 26th Annual International Conference, held in Los Angeles, was a huge success thanks to a program full of new and fun events, a lineup of great guest speakers, a fantastic hotel, and the hard work of our incredibly devoted volunteers and staff. It was an unforgettable experience for all 832 attendees.
“Thank you so very much for the scholarship you gave me to attend the LA Conference! It was great to see everyone again and make new friends. It was my first time to California and I loved it! I am considering becoming a Support Group Leader and at the conference I met a family from nearby that is in need of support. So that was a step toward success!”
• 97 Conference Scholarships were awarded to people in need, enabling them to attend the conference. A total of 1,218 scholarships have been awarded since the inception of our conference scholarship program.
• Conference attendees came not just from 37 states, but from Australia, Canada, Hong Kong, Japan, New Zealand, Panama and Sweden.
“I’m writing to express my most sincere gratitude for making it possible for my daughter and I to stay at the conference hotel for this year’s NAAF conference. As a single mom, it’s been hard over the years to make out-of-town trips happen for us. This was by far the most awesome traveling experience we’ve had together. When my daughter was 7 she was diagnosed with alopecia areata. Until then I’d never even heard of it. The last 3 years have seemed to make me an expert on the subject, but no amount of research can prepare you for the feeling of comfort, community, joy, and acceptance that she and I both experienced over the conference weekend.”

“NAAF really changes lives. If you had never started up NAAF, I probably would feel so alone in the world, thinking, “Am I the only one? Why did God choose me, out of the billions of people in the world?” But making all these friends from NAAF really has changed my life. Outside of NAAF, I am still very close to them. I call them at midnight, and we “In helping others, have our three-hour talks on the phone, just asking how life is and dreaming that we could all move close to each other. we shall help ourselves.” My closest friend from NAAF is about four hours away, and that’s still not close enough.” — OLIVIA PENN –FLORA EDWARDS

& EDUCATION7 NAAF’s Treatment Development Program is on track with the timeline initiated in 2010 to accelerate our quest for a viable treatment. NAAF serves as the ultimate concierge, leveraging all of our available research resources and clinical partnerships. Our strategic goal is to produce safe, effective, affordable treatments useful to millions of people with alopecia areata. Recent additions and developments to this critical program include the following actions:
NAAF funded a study in the Eisenbarth Laboratory at the University of Colorado’s Barbara Davis Center for Childhood Diabetes to find the autoantibody related to alopecia areata. This research seeks to quickly build upon Dr. Angela Christiano’s genetic research by utilizing the well-established laboratory of a related autoimmune disease and their well-developed technologies.
NAAF funded another laboratory at the University of Colorado to utilize another method to find the antigen targeted by the autoantibody related to alopecia areata. We want to see if it generates the same result as the study at the first laboratory.
NAAF also coordinated the study of 210 serum samples from the National Alopecia Areata Registry sent to the laboratory of Dr. Yehuda Shoenfeld in Israel to find antibodies to infectious agents and to investigate antibodies similar to those for INQUIRY other autoimmune diseases. NAAF organized an Alopecia Areata Clinical Research Summit to identify and address issues and opportunities to facilitate INVESTIGATION the testing of new treatment candidates. All recommendations from that summit were implemented in 2011. NAAF, along with Dr. Christiano, coordinated the submission of clinical study applications to the National Institute of ILLUMINATION Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS) so there aren’t competing alopecia areata grants. Dr. Christiano was awarded a grant by the National Institutes of Health to identify biomarkers for alopecia areata—one of the goals of the Alopecia Areata Clinical Research Summit.
NAAF continues to negotiate with several companies to establish partnerships and conduct clinical trials on possible treatments for alopecia areata.
NAAF coordinated an update of alopecia areata prevalence and incidence studies. This data determines the scope of the problem, which is of interest to commercial partners and to the Food and Drug Administration.
NAAF coordinated the transfer of funding of the National Alopecia Areata Registry from the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS, a part of the NIH) to NAAF. This is a huge financial commitment for our Foundation but this Registry is a critical resource for future research, particularly clinical trials.
1983 1989 1991 Medical Advisory Board NAAF awards a record NAAF research grant gets additional meets for first time to $134,000 for research. funding from the National Institutes discuss funding for basic of Health (NIH). This is the first of alopecia areata research. many pilot studies funded for over $1 million.
1985 1990 NAAF awards two NAAF and NIAMS co-sponsor research grants of first of seven Research $5,000 each, the Workshops on Alopecia Areata. first of 123 grants. 8 RESE NAAF funded Quality of Life Studies to objectively demonstrate the burden of alopecia areata. This data will also be presented to the Food and Drug Administration when we find a treatment.
NAAF organized and conducted a scientific briefing for companies with product development interests in treatments for autoimmune diseases, dermatological conditions, and hair growth or restoration. NAAF encouraged healthcare companies to develop treatments for alopecia areata.
NAAF continued to update the plan for the Treatment Development Program and monitor whether changes are needed to advance to our ultimate goal more quickly.
The National Alopecia Areata Foundation had an exhibit booth to attract new research investigators to study our disease during the Society for Investigative Dermatology Meeting in Phoenix, Arizona, in May 2011. In addition, there were separate meetings for alopecia areata immunology researchers, National Alopecia Areata Registry researchers, and the Clinical Research Task Force. All these meetings advance the Alopecia Areata Treatment Development Program.
RESEARCH GRANTS Daisy Dai, PhD | Dennis Roop, MD, PhD | University of Colorado School of Medicine, Denver, Colorado Using the sera of alopecia areata patients to identify antigens that are targets of the autoantibodies of alopecia areata patients This study identified genes of proteins to which there are autoantibodies in alopecia areata. The proposed project was designed to identify antigens recognized by antibodies produced by patients with alopecia areata. This study will likely produce candidate targets of the host immune system.
Tito R. Mendoza, MS, MEd, PhD | The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, Texas Quality of life in patients with alopecia areata At the NAAF Corporate Leadership Council meeting, the pharmaceutical companies requested that we have Quality of Life studies completed and published before they bring drugs to be approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). So this study is a priority for NAAF. The investigators developed a National Alopecia Areata Registry Symptom Scale (NAARSS), following standard psychometric procedures, to perform secondary analysis of the National Alopecia Areata Registry (NAAR) data to describe the quality of life of patients with alopecia areata. Researchers tabulated mean data values and summarized content validity index (CVI) from clinicians’ ratings of the importance of each items as they relate to concerns of patients, drafted and tested a pilot symptom questionnaire, and then refined it for use with research subjects.
Sultan Mirzoyev, Medical Fellow | Rochelle Torgerson, MD, PhD | Mark Davis, MD | Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota Incidence of alopecia areata in Olmsted County, Minnesota The objective of this study is to assess the incidence and natural history of alopecia areata among unselected patients from the community. The last study that was published from the data in Olmsted County, Minnesota, was for the years 1975 to 1989. This is a follow-up to the previous study. “Somewhere, something Alina Markova, MD | Alpert Medical School of Brown University, Pawtucket, Rhode Island James A.
