Acromegaly is a rare disease most commonly caused by benign pituitary adenomas producing excess growth hormone. A profound mismatch between biological control and symptom control creates a high disease burden despite optimal disease management.

BackgroundInjectable somatostatin receptor ligands (iSRLs) have been a mainstay in acromegaly treatment. Oral octreotide capsules (OOC; MYCAPSSA®) were recently approved in the USA. Results from the placebo-controlled CHIASMA OPTIMAL and open-label CH-ACM-01 studies showed an OOC safety profile consistent with that of iSRLs with no new or unexpected safety signals. Results of the MPOWERED trial have enabled a comparison of OOC safety and ...
