A randomized interventional study that compares treatments for vitiligo and anti-vitiligo cream
This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of a novel combination therapy, AVC (Anti-Vitiligo Cream), compared to common treatments for vitiligo. A randomized interventional study was conducted on 1,000 patients with confirmed vitiligo, aged 7-70 years. Participants were divided into five groups (200 patients each): oral prednisolone, Tofacitinib, Ruxolitinib, AVC (Anti-Vitiligo Cream), and AVC combined with Tofacitinib. Outcomes were assessed over two years using the Vitiligo Area Scoring Index (VASI), patient satisfaction scores, and clinical observations. AVC-based therapies (Groups 4 and 5) demonstrated superior efficacy and patient satisfaction compared to other treatments. Group 5 (AVC + Tofacitinib) achieved the highest outcomes, with a mean satisfaction score of 90 (IQR: 85-95) and treatment efficacy significantly higher than Group 1 (p < 0.001). Regression analysis identified treatment outcomes and therapy type as significant predictors of satisfaction. AVC (Anti-Vitiligo Cream), particularly in combination with Tofacitinib, represents a groundbreaking approach for managing vitiligo, providing enhanced efficacy and patient satisfaction. These findings support the potential of AVC-based therapies as a standard treatment option.
