New and emerging treatments for vitiligo: a narrative review
The approval of topical ruxolitinib marks a pivotal step toward precision therapy in vitiligo. Ongoing studies of combination and maintenance regimens offer promise for sustained repigmentation and disease stabilization. However, optimizing long-term outcomes requires continued translational research to elucidate mechanisms of relapse, improve accessibility of emerging therapies and personalize treatment strategies to individual disease phenotypes.
