Active clinical trials for "Vitiligo"

Vitiligo is a common chronic autoimmune disease that causes the body's immune system to attack its own pigment producing skin cells. This study is to evaluate how safe and effective upadacitinib is in participants with non-segmental vitiligo. Adverse effects and change in disease activity will be assessed. Upadacitinib is being evaluated for the treatment of non-segmental vitiligo. The study will enroll approximately 160 participants aged 18-65 with non-segmental vitiligo in 5 treatment arms across 35 sites worldwide. Participants will either receive study drug vs placebo oral tablets once daily (QD) for 24 weeks (Period A). In Period B (up to 52 weeks), participants who received placebo during the first 24 weeks will switch to study drug. Participants who received study drug during the first 24 weeks, will continue to receive study drug. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.

The purpose of this research is to treat vitiligo with a topical PGF2α, microneedling and excimer laser. The goal is to have greater repigmentation than the standard of care (excimer) after 12 weeks of treatment. The study is a pilot, split study meaning the patient will receive one experimental and one standard of care treatment on symmetric lesions of similar location, geometrics and size. Enrolled subjects will present biweekly to clinic on the same two days for twelve weeks. One lesion will be treated with microneedling, topical PGF2α and calibrated excimer laser, while the parallel lesion will be excimer laser alone. Physical exam, photographs, and a review of of the subjects medical records will occur in the study. Changes in size, appearance, and adverse events will be monitored throughout the study. The patient will also agree to close up photographs of their lesions throughout the study. The possible benefit of joining this study is that the treatment received may be more effective than the other study treatment or then other available treatments for vitiligo, although this cannot be guaranteed.

The aim of the present work is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of diphenylcyclopropenone (DPCP) as a depigmenting therapy in extensive Vitiligo.

Vitiligo is a depigmenting skin disease common. Vitiligo is caused by the disappearance of melanocytes in the epidermis. Vitiligo is the cause of disfigurement, psychological and social, that sounds a lot about the quality of life. Currently the standard treatment for vitiligo is ultraviolet ray (UV), but it only allows a 50% repigmentation of lesions in half of patients. The applications of autologous epidermal cells in the liquid phase is a promising new therapeutic approach of vitiligo. The main goal of this study is to compare prospectively the repigmentation of vitiligo lesions induced by application of autologous epidermal cells in liquid phase associated with light therapy and light therapy alone. Study's secondary goals: compare the applications of epidermal cells to phototherapy alone and phototherapy, in respect of: Obtain a repigmentation> 70% (threshold considered aesthetically relevant) The occurrence of adverse events Patient satisfaction regarding the efficacy and safety of treatment

Vitiligo is a common hypopigmentation disorder with significant psychological impact if occurring before adulthood. One study investigating the use of Ginkgo biloba for the treatment of vitiligo in adults reports effectiveness, but has significant flaws. We endeavor to conduct an open label pilot clinical trial replicating the previous trial on 12 adolescents 12 to 18 years old. The purpose of the pilot is to test the feasibility of recruitment and patient retention, variability of outcome measures, and identify major safety concerns. The pilot will use 60 mg of standardized G. biloba two times per day (BID) for 12 weeks. The primary outcome will be the validated Vitiligo European Task Force (VETF) evaluation form, secondary outcomes will include the Vitiligo Area Scoring Index (VASI), assess repigmentation via photographs, and will monitor and report adverse reactions.

Vitiligo affects 0.5 to 2% of worldwide population and has a demonstrated impact on the quality of life. Optimal treatment of vitiligo requires to target the auto-immune inflammatory response (to halt the depigmentation process), but also to induce the differentiation of melanocyte stem cells (to induce repigmentation). There is a well demonstrated discrepancy in the repigmentation response between anatomical areas of the body. Face and neck are the best responder with complete or almost complete repigmentation achieved in most cases under treatment. Trunk and limbs could have a complete or almost complete repigmentation in approximately half of the cases. The repigmentation is much more difficult in wrists, elbows, knees, proximal part of the hands. Finally, some areas such as the extremities of hands and feet, palms, soles, are almost impossible to repigment. The investigator hypothesize that there are some factors that are produced in the skin that prevent (or at least decrease) the differentiation but also probably the migration and proliferation of melanocytes. Primary objective To compare the mRNA expression of each types of cells in the skin of vitiligo patients compared to healthy volunteers according to body locations

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ruxolitinib cream in adolescent and adult participants with non-segmental vitiligo for whom total body involved vitiligo area (facial and nonfacial) does not exceed 10% body surface area (BSA).

Vitiligo is an acquired autoimmune skin disorder which leads to cutaneous depigmentations. A lot of progress has been made to unravel the pathophysiology of vitiligo. Several independent studies confirmed the elevated values of IL-17 in the serum of vitiligo patients and higher IL-17 values have been linked to a higher affected body surface area and a longer disease duration. The study will be a pilot trial with secukinumab in patients with active, non-segmental vitiligo. All patients will receive the active compound (= no placebo arm) as the purpose of the study is to investigate the potential efficacy of secukinumab in vitiligo.

The main objective of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability and efficacy of ATI-50002 Topical Solution, 0.46% in subjects with non-segmental facial vitiligo.

The purpose of this study will be to examine the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of ruxolitinib cream in subjects with vitiligo.
