Study summary
This study is looking at a skin condition called vitiligo. Vitiligo is a skin condition where patches of the skin lose their natural color and become white. This study focuses specifically on vitiligo that affects the face. The treatment being tested is a cream called Anzupgo, which contains an active ingredient named delgocitinib. This cream is applied directly to the skin in the areas affected by vitiligo.The purpose of this study is to find out whether delgocitinib cream could be a helpful treatment for people who have non-segmental vitiligo on their face. During the study, participants will apply the cream to their facial vitiligo patches twice daily for a period of 24 weeks. The study will measure changes in the amount and appearance of the white patches on the face and other parts of the body after 4 weeks, 12 weeks, and 24 weeks of treatment.Throughout the study, doctors will check how well the treatment works by examining the size and severity of the vitiligo patches. They will also ask participants questions about how vitiligo affects their quality of life. The study will monitor any unwanted effects that might occur during treatment and at a follow-up visit 12 weeks after completion of the treatment period. Participants will have skin tape strips taken at the beginning of the study and during treatment to help researchers understand how the cream works on the skin.

Patients who have no pigmented hair within any of the vitiligo areas on the face 7. Clinically significant bacterial, viral, or fungal skin infection in the face within one week before baseline 8. Known or suspected hypersensitivity to any components of the trial drug 9. Previous or current treatment with JAK inhibitors (including delgocitinib), systemic or topical 10. Treatment with any marketed biological therapy or investigational biologic agents within 12 weeks or 5-lives, whichever is longer, prior to baseline 11. Systemic treatment with immunosuppressive or immunomodulating drugs within 12 weeks prior to baseline 12. Use of tanning beds, phototherapy, or intentional UV exposure within 12 weeks prior to baseline 13. Cutaneous applied treatment with topical corticosteroids or other immunomodulators such as phosphodiesterase type 4 inhibitors or calcineurin inhibitors within four weeks prior to baseline 14. Any systemic or topical therapies that could increase the skin sensitivity to UV/visible light or impact skin pigmentation, that is, retinoids, tetracyclines within four weeks prior to baseline 15.

Any clinically abnormal finding observed during the screening period that could affect the safety of the patient or influence the ability to complete the trial 22. Any significant illness or medical, physical, or psychiatric condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, could hinder the participant's ability to fully engage in the study-such as receiving the trial medication or attending scheduled visits-pose a notable risk to their health, or compromise the integrity of the trial data 23.
