Filter by: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 (NSV). Adverse effects and change in disease activity will be assessed. Upadacitinib is an approved drug for various immune-mediated inflammatory diseases and is currently being investigated for the treatment of NSV. There will be 2 replicate studies running at the same time. In Period A, participants are placed in 1 of 2 groups called treatment arms. Each group receives a different treatment. There is a 1 in 3 chance that participants will receive placebo and 2 in 3 chance participants will receive upadacitinib. In Period B, all participants will be in one treatment arm where they all receive upadacitinib. Approximately 270 adult and adolescent participants with NSV will be enrolled in each study (540 participants total) at approximately 90 sites worldwide. In Period A, participants will receive oral tablets of upadacitinib or placebo once a day for 48 weeks. In Period B, participants will receive oral tablets of upadacitinib 15 mg once a day for 112 weeks. Participants will be followed up for 30 days. 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.
This study is being conducted to determine the efficacy and safety of povorcitinib in participants with nonsegmental vitiligo.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of MK-6194 in participants with non-segmental vitiligo. The primary hypothesis is that at least 1 MK-6194 dose is superior to placebo with regards to percent change from baseline in Facial Vitiligo Area Scoring Index (F-VASI) at Week 24.
The CUV105 study will assess the efficacy and safety of afamelanotide and NB-UVB light in patients with vitiligo on the body and face versus NB-UVB light alone.
Vitiligo is an acquired, non contagious skin disorder characterised by depigmented patches of skin that may appear in a localised or very generalised distribution, and affecting 0.5-2.0% of the global population.There are however, limited population-based studies on the burden of vitiligo and disparities across people of different ethnicities and deprivation. The overall purpose of this study is to provide an estimate of the lifetime risk of vitiligo in the population overall and by sociodemographic subgroups. Moreover, to do a subgroup analysis in the vitiligo population to identify health-related disparities across people in different sex, age, deprivation and ethnicity. A detailed understanding of the burden of disease in different sociodemographic groups is vital to plan resource provision.
The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety and effects of the study medicine ritlecitinib for the possible treatment of nonsegmental vitiligo. Vitiligo causes white patches on your skin when the cells that give your skin color are destroyed. Nonsegmental means that it can affect both sides of the body such as both knees and both hands. Ritlecitinib has been tested in earlier clinical studies and has a favorable safety profile. At present there are no approved medications taken by mouth to treat nonsegmental vitiligo. This study is seeking participants who: - Are 18 years of age or older. - are confirmed to have nonsegmental vitiligo for at least 3 months. - Are willing to stop all other treatments that they may be taking for vitiligo. In this study participants will be chosen by chance, like drawing names out of a hat to receive 1 of 3 treatments: •Part I where two different amounts of ritlecitinib (50 mg and 100 mg) are taken once daily. It will be compared to placebo. Placebo is a dummy capsule. It doesn't have any medicine used in the study. Participants receiving placebo who have not responded to treatment after 52 weeks will be given 100 milligrams or 50 milligrams of ritlecitinib for the remaining 52 weeks of the study. • In Part II, participants will only receive 100 milligrams of ritlecitinib. About 1000 participants will take part in Part I and around 450 in Part II globally. The study will compare the experiences of people receiving ritlecitinib to those of the people who do not. This will help see if ritlecitinib is safe and effective. People in Part I will be in this study for about 26 months and people in Part II will be in this study for about 14 months. During the study, participants in part I will need to visit the study site at least 17 times. In part II, participants will visit at least 11 times. Participants will undergo various tests and procedures such as: - vitiligo rating, - physical examinations, - hearing tests, - blood tests, - x-ray, - ECG, - photographs of areas with vitiligo. Participants will be asked to complete questionnaires about their vitiligo.
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
Vitiligo is a auto immune that impact 2% of the global population, regardless from the phototype. Even though it affects patients in a physical way through loss of pigmentation, it is also impacting them on a mental/emotional way.11-12 Current treatments offer a symptomatic solution to patients, however the response rate can be low and results can be slow. Pediatric patients in vitiligo deserves special care as frequently (50%), the disease onset is before 20 years of age and, in 25% of the cases, it starts before the age of 10 years.13 Also, the current treatments for children are limited since it can involve pain and claustrophobia. The combination therapy of the study could offer a painless and easy treatment to follow. If the combination of those two therapies can fasten and improve the response rate, this could be a good option to treat this condition not only in children, but also for adults patients.
The goal of this pilot clinical trial is to assess the effectiveness of psychodramatic psychotherapy in reducing the psychological distress and/or the skin condition in patients with vitiligo. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Is there any improvement in terms of psychological distress in patients with vitiligo participating in a psychodramatic psychotherapy, compared to a control group? 2. Is there any improvement in terms of skin condition in patients with vitiligo participating in a psychodramatic psychotherapy, compared to a control group? Participants in the experimental group will receive the dermatological drug treatment usually recommended for vitiligo, and in addition they will participate in a 6 months psychodramatic psychotherapy. Researchers will compare the results of the experimental group with the results of a control group including vitiligo patients who will receive the dermatological pharmacological treatment usually recommended for vitiligo and participate in a 6 months program of self-help activities.
