A multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-ranging Phase IIb study to assess the efficacy and safety of GIA632 in adult participants with non-segmental vitiligo followed by an extension period
This research is looking into a new treatment called GIA632 for adults who have non-segmental vitiligo. This type of vitiligo causes patches of skin to lose their colour. The study will compare GIA632 to a 'dummy' treatment (placebo) to see how effective and safe it is. Researchers want to find out how much the skin repigments, meaning how much colour returns to the white patches. They'll also be carefully checking for any side effects. This is a Phase II study, which means it's one of the earlier steps in developing a new medicine, focusing on finding the right dose and confirming its effects.

ما هو موضوع هذه الدراسة؟
This study is about a skin condition called non-segmental vitiligo. This is when patches of your skin lose their natural colour, often in many places on your body. Researchers are exploring a new medicine called GIA632 that they hope might help bring colour back to these patches.
The main goal of the study is to measure how much the vitiligo patches improve over 24 weeks – that's about six months. They will use special tools to measure changes in the amount of colour in the skin. They will also keep a close eye on any side effects or unwanted reactions to the medicine, to make sure it's safe.
The study also looks at other things, like how many people see a significant improvement, such as 50%, 75%, or even 90% of their skin colour returning. These measurements will be taken at different times over a longer period, up to 48 weeks (about 11 months), to see if the improvements last. By doing this, the researchers hope to understand if GIA632 could be a good new way to treat vitiligo.

ماذا يتضمن المشاركة؟
If you decide to take part, you would be assigned to either receive the new medicine (GIA632) or a dummy medicine (placebo). Neither you nor the study doctors will know which one you are receiving during the main part of the study. You will have regular visits to the clinic where doctors and nurses will check your skin, measure any changes in your vitiligo, and ask about your general health. These assessments will involve measuring the colour of your skin patches, taking photographs, and checking for any side effects. These visits will be spread out over a period of up to 48 weeks (about 11 months) in total. There will also be a follow-up period after you stop taking the study medicine.

أسئلة شائعة
What is vitiligo?
Vitiligo is a long-term skin condition where patches of skin lose their pigment, causing white areas to appear on your body.
What does 'non-segmental' vitiligo mean?
This means your vitiligo patches can appear on various parts of your body, rather than just one specific area or side.
What is a 'dummy medicine' or 'placebo'?
A placebo looks exactly like the study medicine but contains no active ingredients. It helps researchers compare the real medicine's effects.
Will I know if I'm getting the actual medicine or the placebo?
No, during the main part of the study, neither you nor the study doctors will know. This is called 'double-blind' and helps ensure fair results.
كم ستستغرق الدراسة إذا انضممت؟
The main part of the study will last around 24 weeks (6 months), with further checks extending up to about 48 weeks (11 months) in total.
