About this study

Official title: Transplantation With Dermarolling System of Basal Cell Layer Suspension Obtained by Soft Trypsinisation in Vitiligo Lesion

Actually the methods for melanocyte delivery are invasive and often sophisticated. The dermarolling system with needles causing tiny microinjuries in the epidermis could offer a minimally invasive and painless method of melanocyte transplantation. The purpose of the study is to develop a new and simple method for transepidermally delivering keratinocytes and melanocytes into vitiligo skin.

Read the detailed description

Condition: stable lesion of non segmental and segmental vitiligo of adults.

Background: The best method to transepidermally deliver isolated cells (melanocytes) is not yet defined. Microneedle treatment of the " ex vivo " human skin caused many thin vertical epidermodermal fissures and a variable depth of injury into the dermis regarding the length of the needles. This kind of treatment could be able to create small epidermal defects which allows to deliver melanocytes to an epidermal site. An approach to replenish melanocytes by injection of dissociated epidermal cell suspension with a syringe was recently successfully used. So, we hypothesize that the use of dermaroller with 0.2mm needle length which causes tiny microinjuries strictly in the epidermis could offer a simple, minimally invasive and painless method of melanocyte transplantation.

Main objective: To demonstrate the efficacy and the interest of dermaroller use with 0.2mm needle length in the transplantation of basal cell layer suspension in the epidermis of depigmented vitiligo skin.

Secondary objectives

  1. To assess as control the effect of the use of dermaroller alone on the vitiligo lesion.
  2. If transplantation is successful, to assess the duration needed to obtain a good coalescence and a complete repigmentation of the vitiligo lesion.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Dermabrasion with dermarollerDevice

    • The dermaroller is passed on the treated depigmented area. This technique is based on tiny microwounds performed using 540 microneedles (0.2mm length) which should allow the penetration of the suspension cells into the epidermis to obtain a good repigmentation.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Dermabrasion with dermaroller in people with Vitiligo, run by Mohammed V Souissi University at 1 site in Morocco.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Nov 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Morocco. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact laila benzekri, PhD (212671964111, benzekrilaila@yahoo.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Rate of repigmentation lesions (time frame: At 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02962180, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 Nov 2016.
