- STRATA Skin Sciences highlighted a peer-reviewed randomized trial in the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, with results already published online on March 19, 2026.
- The study found that combining the company’s 308-nm excimer laser with oral JAK inhibitors delivered substantially better repigmentation outcomes in children with progressive vitiligo than an excimer-laser regimen paired with topical tacrolimus.
- Safety was described as favorable over 48 weeks, with reported side effects characterized as manageable.
- The publication supports STRATA’s strategy to position its XTRAC excimer laser as a core component in combination regimens, alongside an intellectual property push aimed at protecting laser-based combinations with systemic drugs.
- Separately, updated AMA CPT codes 96920-96922 are set to expand reimbursement eligibility for excimer laser treatments to additional inflammatory and autoimmune skin conditions effective Jan. 1, 2027.
