0.005% Latanoprost Gel for Nonsegmental Vitiligo

Sponsor: Universitas Padjadjaran

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

Latanoprost, a prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) analog used for glaucoma treatment, is known to cause iris darkening, hypertrichosis, and periocular skin hyperpigmentation. PGF2α has been shown to stimulate the growth of melanocyte dendrites, increasing dendricity even at low doses, as well as enhancing tyrosinase activity and quantity, thereby promoting repigmentation. Studies on the use of 0.005% latanoprost gel in both children and adults with vitiligo have demonstrated effective repigmentation without reported side effects.

Official title: Comparison of the Effectiveness Between a Combination of 0.005% Latanoprost Gel With 308 nm Excimer Phototherapy and a Combination of 0.1% Mometasone Furoate Cream With 308 nm Excimer Phototherapy on Repigmentation of Nonsegmental Vitiligo in Children
