Background: The phase III, placebo-controlled, randomized TELESTAR study evaluated efficacy and safety of telotristat ethyl (TE) in patients (pts) with diarrhoea (≥4 bowel movements (BMs)/day) due to carcinoid syndrome (CS) inadequately controlled by somatostatin analogs (SSAs). TE, a tryptophan hydroxylase inhibitor, decreases peripheral serotonin levels. As add-on treatment to SSAs, TE 250 mg 3x/day (tid) and TE 500 mg tid significantly reduced BM frequency (P...

Introduction: TELESTAR was a pivotal, randomized phase 3 study evaluating telotristat etiprate (TE), a tryptophan hydroxylase inhibitor, among patients (pts) with carcinoid syndrome (CS). When added to somatostatin analogues (SSA), 250 mg tid and 500 mg tid TE each produced significantly greater bowel movement (BM) frequency reduction averaged over 12 weeks (wks) than placebo (PBO) plus SSA (P<0.001). Pts crossed over to open-label (OL) treatment with TE 500 mg ti...

Introduction: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) affects 10% of women and is associated with a 2-3fold risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D), hypertension, fatty liver and cardiovascular disease. Androgen excess has been implicated as a major contributor to metabolic risk in PCOS. We aimed to identify PCOS sub-types with distinct androgen profiles and compare their cardiometabolic risk.Methods: We cross-sectionally studied 488 tre...
