Paltusotine is a once-daily, oral, nonpeptide somatostatin receptor type 2 (SST2) specific agonist, in development for the treatment of acromegaly and neuroendocrine tumors. We report interim results from ACROBAT Advance (NCT04261712), an ongoing, multicenter, open-label, long-term extension study of paltusotine in subjects with acromegaly who previously completed either Phase 2 study ACROBAT Edge (NCT03789656) or Evolve (NCT03792555). ACROBAT Edge enrolled 47 subjects with el...

Cushing’s disease (CD) and Ectopic ACTH syndrome (EAS) stem from excess circulating adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and resulting hypercortisolemia. In CD, excess ACTH is secreted from pituitary tumors, whereas excess ACTH in EAS arises from nonpituitary tumors. ACTH acts on the adrenal melanocortin type 2 (MC2) receptor to control the synthesis and secretion of adrenal hormones, including the stress hormone cortisol (corticosterone in rats) which accounts for the com...
