In plain English
This study looks at how the medicine osilodrostat moves through the body (pharmacokinetics, or PK), how it affects the body (pharmacodynamics, or PD), and how well children and teenagers tolerate it. It is for young people aged 2 to under 18 with Cushing's syndrome, a condition where the body makes too much of a hormone called cortisol. The study is funded by Recordati Group.
Who can take part
- Children and teenagers aged 2 to under 18 with Cushing's syndrome that comes from within the body
- Those whose surgery did not work, who are waiting for surgery, or for whom surgery is not an option right away
- Weighing more than 10 kilograms
- Cushing's syndrome confirmed by specific tests, including growth and weight changes, cortisol tests, and urine tests
- Able to swallow study tablets whole, or the contents of capsules mixed with water
- Parents or legal guardians able to give permission
Who may not be able to
- Those with a large pituitary tumour causing or at high risk of pressing symptoms
- Not enough time since stopping other cortisol-lowering medicines, or recent use of other experimental drugs
- Past allergic reactions to drugs similar to osilodrostat
- History of cancer in the past 5 years (apart from some skin cancers)
- Moderate to severe kidney problems
- Certain liver test results that are too high
- History of blood clots
- Risk factors for a heart rhythm problem called long QT syndrome, or certain heart conditions
- Uncontrolled or not well-treated high blood pressure
- Major surgery within the last month, or certain pituitary surgery within the last 6 weeks
- Use of steroid tablets or injections in the month before screening
- Uncontrolled thyroid problems
- Poorly controlled diabetes
- Pregnancy, breastfeeding, or not agreeing to use effective birth control if able to become pregnant
- Any other condition that the study doctor thinks would make taking part unsafe or affect the results
- Use of medicines that are not allowed in the study
What taking part involves
- • Taking the study medicine osilodrostat as tablets swallowed whole, or as capsule contents mixed with water
- • Tests to measure how the medicine moves through the body and how it affects the body

About This Trial
Multicenter, open-label, non-comparative study to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and tolerability of osilodrostat in children and adolescent patients with Cushing's syndrome.
More detail
The period 1 study duration will be 12 weeks. The study will include a screening period of up to 4 weeks prior to Day 0 (baseline) (to allow for an adequate washout period from any medications that may modify cortisol levels). All subjects being treated with osilodrostat at 12 weeks and obtaining benefit from therapy, per investigator judgment, will be offered participation in an optional 9-month extension period, during which assessment of the PD activity and safety/tolerability of osilodrostat will be done. Patients who do not enter the optional extension period will have a safety follow up visit 4 weeks later.
