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...
