Vitiligo
Conditions
Brief summary
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, vehicle-controlled phase II study of MH004 Ointment with a 28-week open-label long-term safety extension period. The study was designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and primary efficacy of MH004 Ointment in adolescents and adults with vitiligo.
Detailed description
This phase II trial of MH004 Ointment comprises two periods: a vehicle control period and an open-label long-term safety extension period. Participants will be randomly aligned to the 1.0% MH004 Ointment or Vehicle arms and treated for up to 24 weeks, followed by a 28-week open-label LTS treatment period with 1.0% MH004 Ointment. The primary objective of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy of MH004 Ointment in adolescent and adult participants with vitiligo.
Interventions
MH004 1% ointment applied topically to the affected area as a thin film once or twice daily.
Matching vehicle ointment applied topically to the affected area as a thin film once or twice daily.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Proportion of participants achieving Facial Vitiligo Area Scoring Index 50(F-VASI50) at Week 24. | Baseline; Week 24 | An F-VASI50 responder achieved at least 50% improvement from Baseline in F-VASI, measured by the percentage of vitiligo involvement (percentage of body surface area \[BSA\]) and the degree of depigmentation: 0% (no depigmentation), 10% (only specks of depigmentation), 25% (pigmented area exceeded depigmented area), 50% (depigmented and pigmented area was equal), 75% (depigmented area exceeded pigmented area), 90% (specks of pigment), or 100% (no pigment). The percentage of BSA (hand unit) vitiligo involvement was estimated to the nearest 0.1% by the Investigator using the Palmar Method. The Investigator used his/her hand to mimic the participant's hand size to evaluate the percentage of BSA vitiligo involvement. F-VASI was then derived by multiplying the values assessed for the vitiligo involvement by the percentage of affected skin for each site on the face and summing the values of all sites (possible range: 0-3; lower scores indicate increased improvement). |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Percentage of Participants Achieving a ≥ 50% Improvement from Baseline in the Total Body Vitiligo Area Scoring Index (T-VASI50) Score at Week 24 | Baseline; Week 24 | A T-VASI50 responder achieved at least 50% improvement from Baseline in T-VASI, calculated with contributions from 6 sites. The percentage of vitiligo involvement was estimated in hand units (percentage of BSA estimated to the nearest 0.1%) by the Investigator using the Palmar Method. The Investigator used his/her hand to mimic the participant's hand size to evaluate percent BSA vitiligo involvement. The degree of depigmentation for each site was estimated to the nearest percentage: 0% (no depigmentation present), 10% (only specks of depigmentation present), 25% (pigmented area exceeded depigmented area), 50% (depigmented and pigmented area was equal), 75% (depigmented area exceeded pigmented area), 90% (specks of pigment present), 100% (no pigment present). T-VASI was then derived by multiplying the values assessed for the vitiligo involvement by the percentage of affected skin for each site and summing the values (range: 0-100; lower scores indicate increased improvement). |
| Percentage of Participants Achieving a ≥ 75% Improvement from Baseline in the Total Body Vitiligo Area Scoring Index (T-VASI75) Score at Week 24 | Baseline; Week 24 | A T-VASI75 responder achieved at least 75% improvement from Baseline in T-VASI, calculated with contributions from 6 sites |
| Percentage Change from Baseline in Facial Body Surface Area (F-BSA) at Week 24 | Baseline; Week 24 | F-BSA involvement was the proportion of the facial body surface area with vitiligo. The area Face was defined as including the area on the forehead to the original hairline, on the cheek to the jawline vertically to the jawline and laterally from the corner of the mouth to the tragus. The area Face did not include surface area of the lips, scalp, ears, or neck, but included the nose and eyelids. Body surface area assessment was performed by the Palmar Method. Body surface area was estimated to the nearest 0.1%. The approximate size of the participant's entire palmar surface (i.e., the palm plus 5 digits) was considered as 1% BSA, and the approximate size of the participant's thumb was considered as 0.1% BSA. Percentage change = (\[post-Baseline (BL) value minus BL value\]/BL value) X 100. |
| Percentage Change from Baseline in F-VASI at Week 24 | Baseline; Week 24 | F-VASI was measured by the percentage of vitiligo involvement (percentage of BSA) and the degree of depigmentation: 0% (no depigmentation), 10% (only specks of depigmentation), 25% (pigmented area exceeded depigmented area), 50% (depigmented and pigmented area was equal), 75% (depigmented area exceeded pigmented area), 90% (specks of pigment), or 100% (no pigment). The percentage of BSA (hand unit) vitiligo involvement was estimated to the nearest 0.1% by the Investigator using the Palmar Method. The Investigator used his/her hand to mimic the participant's hand size to evaluate the percentage of BSA vitiligo involvement. F-VASI was then derived by multiplying the values assessed for the vitiligo involvement by the percentage of affected skin for each site on the face and summing the values of all sites (possible range: 0-3; lower scores indicate increased improvement).

| Percentage Change From Baseline in T-BSA at Week 52 | Baseline; Week 52 | T-BSA involvement was the proportion of the body surface area with vitiligo. Body surface area assessment was performed by the Palmar Method. Body surface area was estimated to the nearest 0.1%. The approximate size of the participant's entire palmar surface (i.e., the palm plus 5 digits) was considered as 1% BSA, and the approximate size of the participant's thumb was considered as 0.1% BSA. Percentage change = (\[post-BL value minus BL value\]/BL value) X 100. |
| Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) | From the time of Informed Consent Form signing until at least 30 days after the last application of study drug (up to Week 52) | An adverse event (AE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence associated with the use of a drug in humans, whether or not considered drug-related. An AE could have been any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of study treatment. A TEAE was defined as any AE reported for the first time or the worsening of a pre-existing event after the first application of study drug. |
| Percentage Change from Baseline in T-VASI at Week 52 | Baseline; Week 52 | T-VASI was calculated with contributions from 6 sites. The percentage of vitiligo involvement was estimated in hand units (percentage of BSA estimated to nearest 0.1%) by the Investigator using the Palmar Method. The Investigator used his/her hand to mimic the participant's hand size to evaluate percent BSA vitiligo involvement. The degree of depigmentation for each site was estimated to the nearest percentage: 0% (no depigmentation present), 10% (only specks of depigmentation present), 25% (pigmented area exceeded depigmented area), 50% (depigmented and pigmented area was equal), 75% (depigmented area exceeded pigmented area), 90% (specks of pigment present), 100% (no pigment present). T-VASI was then derived by multiplying the values assessed for the vitiligo involvement by the percentage of affected skin for each site and summing the values (range: 0-100; lower scores indicate increased improvement). Percentage change = (\[post-BL value minus BL value\]/BL value) X 100. |
