Summary

This study tests a daily pill called ritlecitinib in adults and teens with nonsegmental vitiligo, a condition that causes white patches on the skin. The goal is to see if the medicine can maintain or improve skin color regained in a previous study, or if stopping it leads to color loss. About 394 participants who completed a prior year-long study will take the drug or a placebo for up to 52 weeks, with regular checkups to track safety and repigmentation.
