Response - NO
Brief Summary   Vitiligo is a chronic autoimmune condition associated with marked psychological distress, especially in our country owing to the darker skin types. There is a growing need for targeted therapies in vitiligo for its effective clearance. JAK (Janus kinase) inhibitors act by inhibiting IFN (Interferon) gamma signalling which is the main cytokine implicated in melanocyte destruction(1). However, data regarding ideal dosing, efficacy and long-term safety of oral tofacitinib in the Indian population is lacking. Through our study, we hope to bridge this gap and aid in creating a standardised protocol for the use of oral tofacitinib in vitiligo.
