What participants receive

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

  • Control Intervention (UVB)Device

    Also called Phototherapy

    Targeted narrowband-UVB phototherapy in alignment with published Vitiligo Working Group recommendations.

  • Investigational Interventions (Ablative Laser Resurfacing + RECELL + UVB)Device

    Spray-On Skin™ Cells prepared using RECELL will be applied to an area prepared by ablative laser, followed by targeted narrowband UVB phototherapy.

All Participants (within patient control)ExperimentalEach participant will serve as their own Control, receiving both Control and Investigational Interventions randomly allocated to treatment of a portion of a depigmented vitiligo lesion.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Incidence of ≥80% Study Area Repigmentation

    Repigmentation was evaluated by qualified members of a Central Review Committee.

    Measured: Week 24

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Repigmentation Category

    Expert Central Review Committee categorization of the amount of area repigmented (0-25%, 26-50%, 51-79% and 80-100%). This is visual estimation of the vitiligo lesion area that has repigmented, with reference to training images. Higher %repigmentation is a better outcome.

    Measured: Week 24

  2. Color Matching

    The Expert Central Review Committee visually judged the quality of repigmentation in terms of how closely it matches with the normal pigmentation seen in the surrounding area. The rating scale consists of poor, moderate, good, and excellent. Color matching can only be evaluated in instances of >0% repigmentation.

    Measured: Week 24

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Investigational Interventions (Ablative Laser Resurfacing + RECELL + UVB) in people with Vitiligo, run by Avita Medical at 12 sites in United States.

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 18 inclusion and 19 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 May 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 sites in United States. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 21 Sep 2023). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of ≥80% Study Area Repigmentation (time frame: Week 24). 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 NCT04547998, 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 24 May 2024.
