Background: Osilodrostat (potent oral 11β-hydroxylase inhibitor) provided rapid normalisation of mean urinary free cortisol (mUFC) in Cushing’s disease (CD) patients during the 48-week (W) core period of LINC 4 (NCT02697734) and was well tolerated. We report long-term efficacy and safety results from the LINC 4 core and extension phases.Methods: 73 adults with CD and mUFC >1.3 upper limit of normal (ULN) were enrolled. LINC 4 comprised a 12...

Background: Cushing’s disease (CD) is associated with hypercortisolism-induced cardiovascular morbidity and mortality and impaired patient quality of life (QoL). We report long-term effects of osilodrostat (potent 11β-hydroxylase inhibitor) on cardiovascular/metabolic-related risk factors, physical features of hypercortisolism and QoL in CD patients following the core and extension phases of the LINC 4 study (NCT02697734).Methods: LINC 4 compri...

Introduction: Osilodrostat (oral 11β-hydroxylase inhibitor) demonstrated rapid, sustained cortisol normalisation in Phase III studies (LINC 3, NCT02180217; LINC 4, NCT02697734) in patients with Cushing’s disease (CD). Relative osilodrostat bioavailability is ~20% higher in Asian patients than other ethnicities; body weight is not a major determinant of this difference. This analysis of LINC 3 and LINC 4 evaluated osilodrostat efficacy and safety in Asian and non-Asia...

IntroductionOsilodrostat, a potent, oral 11β-hydroxylase inhibitor, normalized mean urinary free cortisol (mUFC) in most patients with CD during a Phase III, randomized-withdrawal study. We now report findings from a Phase III study of osilodrostat in patients with CD that featured an initial double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled period (LINC 4; NCT02697734).MethodsAdults with CD (mUFC > 1.3 &...
