Status: Recruiting now
Description:
AbbVie plans to enroll about 2,795 participants. This is an observational study, so researchers will not assign an experimental treatment. Researchers are measuring how vitiligo and two other skin conditions affect symptoms, daily life, work, and health care use. Participants may complete exams, questionnaires, record reviews, imaging, or sample collection; no drug-related side effects are expected unless they are already receiving routine treatment. People age 12 and older may qualify. The study is recruiting at 116 listed sites across 18 countries.
