Study Summary

Researchers are looking for a new way to treat people with non-segmental vitiligo (NSV). The goal of this study is to learn about the safety of MK-6194 and how well people tolerate it. Researchers also want to learn if people who take MK-6194 have more of a decrease in the amount of vitiligo on their face compared to people who take placebo.

Primary Outcome

VASI is a validated scoring method that measures the extent and severity of vitiligo depigmentation. The F-VASI measures vitiligo involvement of the facial area. For facial lesions, size is estimated using fingertip units (FTU), fingers, or thumbs: 1 FTU is approximately 0.03% body surface area (BSA), while a finger or thumb is approximately 0.1% BSA. Depigmentation at each site is graded to the nearest percentage: 0%, 10%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 90%, or 100%. F-VASI is calculated by multiplying the are
