Can a new pill bring back skin color in vitiligo?

NCT ID NCT07108283

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 14, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study tests a drug called zasocitinib in adults with nonsegmental vitiligo, an autoimmune condition that causes white patches on the skin. About 200 participants will take either the drug or a placebo for up to a year. The main goal is to see if the drug can improve skin color on the face by at least 75% after 6 months.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
zasocitinib (also known as TAK-279)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could lead to a new treatment option that helps restore skin color in people with vitiligo.
What could go wrong
This is an early Phase 2 trial with only 200 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The drug may not work better than placebo, and side effects are still being studied.
