Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Aim of the study: To perform a prospective, controlled, randomized, intra-individual comparative study in vitiligo lesions treated with epidermal cell transplantation with additional narrow-band UVB treatment using epidermal cell suspensions that have been characterized at the cellular level.
Study design:
Grafting with epidermal cells: A superficial skin shaving excision will be obtained from pigmented skin using a dermatome. A cell suspension will be obtained by trypsinisation. Vitiligo skin will be dermabraded by Erbium: Yag laser after local anaesthesia. The cell suspension will be spread on the dermabraded skin area and fixed with dressings. Keratinocyte, and melanocyte counts will be performed on an aliquot of the cell suspension. One symmetrical patch of vitiligo will be chosen as control and left untreated.
Narrow-band UVB treatment: Four weeks after transplantation of epidermal cells, the grafted and control patch will be treated by Narrow-band UVB. Treatment will be performed 2 times a week. Narrow-band UVB treatment will be performed for at least 3 months or 24 treatments.
Evaluation of the treatment success: The grade of pigmentation in all lesions will be evaluated clinically, with photographs. The clinical rating will be performed as follows: 0 = no repigmentation; 1 = 1-25% repigmentation; 2 = 26 to 50% repigmentation; 3 = 51 to 75% repigmentation; and 4 = 76 to 100% repigmentation. The evaluation of the photographs will be performed blinded by physicians not engaged in the treatment phase of the study. In addition the surface of vitiligo patches will be traced on transparent sheets and monitored by planimetry.
