Combination therapy with 308-nm excimer laser, topical tacrolimus, and short-term systemic corticosteroids for segmental vitiligo: A retrospective study of 159 patients.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:Segmental vitiligo (SV) is characterized by a unilateral and localized distribution, early onset, and stable disease after rapid progression. And SV is often associated with poor response to various treatment modalities. OBJECTIVE:We sought to evaluate the effectiveness of combination therapy with 308-nm excimer laser, topical tacrolimus, and short-term systemic corticosteroids for SV, and to search for factors associated with the treatment response. METHODS:A retrospective interventional case-series study was performed on 159 patients with SV who were treated with the combination therapy for more than 3 months. RESULTS:The rate of 75% or more repigmentation was 50.3% after a median treatment duration of 12.1 months; 36.5% and 13.8% of the patients showed nearly complete (75%-99%) and complete (100%) repigmentation, respectively. Multivariable analysis showed the following to be independent factors with poor response: disease duration longer than 12 months (odds ratio 0.372, 95% confidence interval 0.157-0.882, P = .025), poliosis (odds ratio 0.494, 95% confidence interval 0.247-0.988, P = .046), and plurisegmental subtype (odds ratio 0.175, 95% confidence interval 0.065-0.474, P = .001). LIMITATIONS:This was a retrospective study. CONCLUSION:The combination therapy is effective for SV. Prolonged disease duration, poliosis, and plurisegmental subtype were shown to be independent prognostic factors of poor response in patients with SV.
