Biological drugs are extensively used to treat various inflammatory diseases, including psoriasis, atopic dermatitis (AD), and rheumatoid arthritis. While generally effective and safe, these therapies have been increasingly associated with secondary development of vitiligo, especially with anti-TNF α and anti-IL17 drugs. Dupilumab, an IL-4 receptor alpha antagonist used in moderate to severe AD, rarely induces vitiligo.

Baricitinib, a JAK inhibitor selectively targeting JAK1/2, has shown preliminary efficacy for vitiligo. We aimed to assess the efficacy and tolerability of combination therapy with baricitinib and narrowband UV-B (NB-UVB) to treat active nonsegmental vitiligo (NSV).

Although several case reports and small clinical trials have reported promising outcomes with Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors for vitiligo, high-quality evidence and guidelines are lacking. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of JAK inhibitors for the treatment of vitiligo using a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs). We searched the PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases up to August 2023, with additional studies from ClinicalTrials.
