New shot aims to recolor white patches in vitiligo
NCT ID NCT07533019
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Sep 09, 2026 · Updated 9 times
Summary
This study tests an experimental drug called LY4005130 in 60 adults with non-segmental vitiligo, a condition that causes white patches on the skin. Participants receive either the drug or a placebo by IV every few weeks for 24 weeks. The goal is to see if the drug can reduce the size of white patches, especially on the face, and to check for side effects.
