About this study

Official title: Tissue Resident Memory T Cells in Early & Late Cases of Generalized Non-segmental Vitiligo

This study aims to detect the presence and diversity of Tissue resident memory T cell populations in early and late cases of generalized non-segmental Vitiligo.

Read the detailed description
  • Written informed consent obtained from every participant.
  • Detailed history taking including onset, course, duration of the disease, aggravating factors and received medications
  • VASI score assessed in every patient.
  • Patients photographed, divided into two groups early \& late cases and 3 mm punch biopsies will be taken from perilesional and non lesional skin.
  • Biopsies processed and stained for CD8 \& CD69 in cases of early group, \& late group and controls by immunofluorescence.

What is being measured

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

  1. CD8+ immunofluorescence

    Number of Tissue resident Memory cells by positively stained by CD8+ in early and late generalized non segmental vitiligo patients

    Measured: 6months-1 year

  2. CD69+ immunofluorescence

    Number of Tissue resident Memory cells by positively stained by CD8+ in early and late generalized non segmental vitiligo patients

    Measured: 6months-1 year

  3. Double CD8+ and CD69+ immunofluorescence

    Number of Tissue resident Memory cells by double stained by CD8+ \&CD 69+ in early and late generalized non segmental vitiligo patients

    Measured: 6months-1 year

  4. VASI

    Vitiligo Area and Severity index minimum 0 maximum 100, the larger the number the worse the condition

    Measured: 6months-1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Vitiligo, run by Kasr El Aini Hospital at 1 site in Egypt.

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 4 inclusion and 5 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Feb 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

CD8+ immunofluorescence (time frame: 6months-1 year). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 4 Feb 2022.
