Summary

This study tests an experimental drug called GIA632 in 210 adults with non-segmental vitiligo, a condition that causes white patches on the skin. The goal is to see if the drug can safely restore skin color and to find the best dose for future studies. Participants will receive either the drug or a placebo, and neither they nor their doctors will know which one they are getting.
