The purpose of this study is to learn more about what might cause a kind of hair loss called Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia. We are looking for Black or African American women who have this condition. If you join the study, you will be asked to answer a short survey, have pictures taken of your scalp, and give a saliva sample so we can look at your DNA. We are also looking for family members-whether they have hair loss or not-to take part. This is not a treatment study.

Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) is a condition where the donor's cells from a stem cell transplant attack the patient's body, thinking it is not their own. The purpose of this study is to learn more about a new medicine called vimseltinib to see if it is safe and helps people with this condition. The medicine may help by calming down the immune system. Researchers want to find the best dose with the fewest side effects.
