Early Molecular Changes in Vitiligo After Narrowband Ultraviolet Therapy
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Phototherapy (NB-UVB) via the 3 Series PC & SP phototherapy cabinet for Vitiligo and Dermatology/Skin - Other. Completed, enrolled 10 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Vitiligo is a chronic acquired cutaneous disease of pigmentation that affects patients' quality of life across all degrees of involvement and severity. Phototherapy, such as Narrow band UVB (NB-UVB), is a clinically indicated treatment for skin lesions. NB-UVB treatment has been shown to promote repigmentation and normalize cellular behaviors. The investigators would like to analyze the change in protein expression and histological change in skin from NB-UVB treatment in participants with Vitiligo. The investigators are recruiting participants with Vitiligo on the body, arms, and/or legs.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
This is an investigator-initiated, single-blinded, ascending dose study of NB-UVB treatment for Vitiligo in adults of 3 treatments for one week. It is designed to measure the molecular changes and re-pigmentation in affected and normal skin of participants with Vitiligo and normal skin in healthy participants.
