Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Percentage of Participants Treated With Ruxolitinib Cream Who Achieved a ≥ 50% Improvement From Baseline in Facial Assessment of the Vitiligo Area and Severity Index Score (F-VASI50) Compared With Participants Treated With Vehicle at Week 24

    An F-VASI50 responder achieved at least 50% improvement from Baseline in F-VASI, measured by the percentage of vitiligo involvement (percentage of body surface area \[BSA\]) and the degree of depigmentation: 0% (no depigmentation), 10% (only specks of depigmentation), 25% (pigmented area exceeded depigmented area), 50% (depigmented and pigmented area was equal), 75% (depigmented area exceeded pigmented area), 90% (specks of pigment), or 100% (no pigment). The percentage of BSA (hand unit) vitiligo involvement was estimated to the nearest 0.1% by the Investigator using the Palmar Method. The Investigator used his/her hand to mimic the participant's hand size to evaluate the percentage of BSA vitiligo involvement. F-VASI was then derived by multiplying the values assessed for the vitiligo involvement by the percentage of affected skin for each site on the face and summing the values of all sites (possible range: 0-3; lower scores indicate increased improvement).

    Baseline; Week 24

Secondary Outcomes (48)

  • Percentage of Participants Who Achieved a Facial Assessment of the Physician's Global Vitiligo Assessment (F-PhGVA) of Clear or Almost Clear

    Week 24

  • Percentage of Participants Who Achieved a ≥ 50% Improvement From Baseline in Full Body Assessment of Vitiligo Area and Severity Index (T-VASI) at Week 52

    Baseline; Week 52

  • Dose Response on Percentage Change From Baseline in F-VASI

    up to 156 weeks

  • Number of Participants With Any Treatment-emergent Adverse Event (TEAE) and Any Grade 3 or Higher TEAE up to Week 24

    up to 24 weeks

  • Number of Participants With Any TEAE and Any Grade 3 or Higher TEAE up to Week 52

    up to 52 weeks

  • +43 more secondary outcomes

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 75 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Clinical diagnosis of vitiligo.
  • Vitiligo with depigmented areas including:
  • at least 0.5% of the total body surface area (BSA) on the face (0.5% BSA is approximately equal to the area of the participant's palm \[without digits\]) AND
  • at least 3% of the total BSA on nonfacial areas (3% BSA is approximately equal to the area of 3 of the participant's handprints \[palm plus 5 digits\]).
  • Participants who agree to discontinue all agents used to treat vitiligo from screening through the final follow-up visit. Over-the-counter preparations deemed acceptable by the investigator and camouflage makeups are permitted.

You may not qualify if:

  • Conditions at baseline that would interfere with evaluation of vitiligo.
  • Participants who are receiving any kind of phototherapy, including tanning beds.
  • Participants with other dermatologic disease besides vitiligo whose presence or treatments could complicate the assessment of repigmentation.
  • Participants who have used skin bleaching treatments for past treatment of vitiligo or other pigmented areas.
  • Participants who have received any of the following treatments within the minimum specified timeframes.
  • Use of any biologic, investigational, or experimental therapy or procedure for vitiligo within 12 weeks or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) of screening.
  • Use of laser or light-based vitiligo treatments, including tanning beds, within 8 weeks of screening.
  • Use of immunomodulating oral or systemic medications (eg, corticosteroids, methotrexate, cyclosporine) or topical treatments that may affect vitiligo (eg, corticosteroids, tacrolimus/pimecrolimus, retinoids) within 4 weeks of screening.
  • Use of any prior and concomitant therapy not listed above that may interfere with the objective of the study as per discretion of the investigator, including drugs that cause photosensitivity or skin pigmentation (eg, antibiotics such as tetracyclines, antifungals) within 8 weeks of screening.
  • Participants with a clinically significant abnormal thyroid-stimulating hormone or free T4 at screening.
  • Participants with protocol-defined cytopenias at screening
  • Participants with severely impaired liver function.
  • Participants with impaired renal function.
  • Participants taking potent systemic cytochrome P450 3A4 inhibitors or fluconazole within 2 weeks or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, before the baseline visit.
  • Participants who have previously received JAK inhibitor therapy, systemic or topical.
