Active clinical trials for "Vitiligo"

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the Mechanism Of Action (MOA) of ruxolitinib cream in vitiligo by assessing the change in biomarkers.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the duration of response following withdrawal of ruxolitinib cream (Cohort A vehicle group), safety and maintenance of response with continued use of ruxolitinib cream in participants who have completed either Study NCT04052425 or NCT04057573 (parent studies) in which the participants will have been using ruxolitinib cream BID for the previous 28 to 52 weeks depending on their initial randomization in the parent study.

This is a prospective blinded within-subject randomized study to evaluate the application of Spray-On Skin™ Cells, prepared using the RECELL® Device for safe and effective repigmentation of ablated stable vitiligo lesions.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of afamelanotide, when combined with narrowband ultraviolet B (NB-UVB) phototherapy, in patients with nonsegmental vitiligo. Afamelanotide is expected to increase the rate of the repigmentation induced by NB-UVB, leading to a reduced frequency and dose of NB-UVB.

To evaluate if the combination of psoralen plus ultraviolet A and narrowband ultraviolet B is more effective than narrowband ultraviolet B alone in the treatment of vitiligo.

The investigators purpose is to initiate a phase II, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial to test simvastatin, an FDA-approved medication for hypercholesterolemia, as a new treatment for vitiligo. The aims of this placebo-controlled study seek to determine the safety and potential efficacy of simvastatin 80mg daily versus placebo in adult male patients with generalized vitiligo. Additionally, the investigators will collect blood to examine the effect of simvastatin on autoreactive CD8+ T cells in vitiligo patients.

Background: New light shed on the cholinergic aspects of vitiligo pathophysiology. It was found that acetylcholine concentration increased with a significantly reduced expression of acetylcholinesterase in vitiliginous patches that return to normal up on repigmentation. Objective: The investigators will undertook this controlled, prospective pilot study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of botulinum toxin A in patients with localized vitiligo. Methods: 10 patients with focal or segmental vitiligo will be recruited. For each patient with focal vitiligo, one or two vitiliginous patches will be treated. The other patches will be used as control. For each patient with segmental vitiligo, half of the lesion will be treated. The other half will be used as a control. Botulinum toxin will be injected. The response will be analyzed at the initial visit, two weeks and at two and six months after therapy.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of autologous transplantation of melanocytes in patients with vitiligo.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether afamelanotide and narrow band UVB are effective in the treatment of non-segmental vitiligo (NSV).

This is a study that is being conducted in order to assess the efficacy of microneedling as a stand-alone treatment for vitiligo. Vitiligo is an autoimmune depigmentation disease of the skin that is characterized by the destruction of epidermal melanocytes by CD8+ T cells. The pathogenesis of Vitiligo has been linked to autoimmunity, oxidative stress, and genetic susceptibility.
