Efficacy and Safety of Ruxolitinib Cream in Chinese Children Aged 2-11 Years With Non-segmental Vitiligo
China20 participantsStarted 2026-06-01
Plain-language summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Ruxolitinib Phosphate Cream in treating non-segmental vitiligo in children aged 2 to 11 years under real-world conditions. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are:
Primary Efficacy: What is the improvement rate (e.g., proportion of participants achieving F-VASI75) after 24 weeks of treatment with Ruxolitinib Phosphate Cream in this population? Safety Profile: What is the safety profile of the treatment over 24 weeks, specifically regarding the incidence of Application Site Acne, Application Site Pruritus, and other adverse events?
Participants will:
Apply Ruxolitinib Phosphate Cream topically to vitiligo lesions as prescribed by the investigator.
Attend scheduled clinic visits at Weeks 4, 8, 12, and 24 for efficacy and safety assessments.
Undergo standardized clinical photography and severity scoring of their vitiligo lesions at each visit.
Report any adverse events or skin reactions experienced during the study period to the research team.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* Children aged 2 to 11 years, regardless of sex.

* Legal guardian voluntarily provides signed informed consent and agrees to scheduled follow-ups.
Exclusion Criteria:
* Diagnosis of other forms of vitiligo (e.g., segmental vitiligo).
* Presence of other hypopigmentary or depigmentary disorders that could interfere with efficacy assessment (e.g., pityriasis alba, leprosy, post-inflammatory hypopigmentation, progressive macular hypomelanosis, nevus depigmentosus, and tinea versicolor).
* Prior or current use of any treatment for depigmentation.
* History of failure with any systemic or topical JAK inhibitor therapy for vitiligo or any other inflammatory condition.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
