Introduction: Osilodrostat and Metyrapone are two CYP11B1 inhibitors used for the treatment of patients with Cushing syndrome. Despite their common suspected mechanism of action, the comparison of serum steroid profiles determined in HPLC-MS/MS in patients treated by either Osilodrostat or Metyrapone for an ACTH-dependent Cushing syndrome identified higher levels of 11-deoxycortisol and androgens in patients treated by Metyrapone than in those treated by Osilodrostat (F. B...

Introduction: The steroidogenesis inhibitor osilodrostat (OSI), indicated for the medical treatment of endogenous Cushing’s syndrome, exhibits significant interindividual variability regarding the response to treatment (Pivonello et al. 2020). Plasma exposure may contribute to this variability. Our objective was to investigate the effect of concomitant use of mitotane (MIT), a potent inducer of CYP450 (3A4), on circulating OSI concentrations in patients treated f...
