New combo therapy tested to halt spreading skin condition

NCT ID NCT04237103

Summary

This study tested if adding a weekly oral medication (methotrexate) to a standard light therapy treatment works better for controlling active vitiligo than light therapy alone. It involved 32 adults whose vitiligo was actively spreading. Researchers measured changes in skin color, disease activity, and quality of life over 8 months to see which treatment was more effective and safe.
