Summary

This study tests whether the drug Isturisa can improve health problems caused by mild autonomous cortisol secretion (MACS), a condition where the body makes too much cortisol. Ten adults with MACS will take Isturisa for two years while researchers track changes in blood sugar, cholesterol, weight, bone density, and quality of life. The goal is to see if the drug can help control these issues better than current care.
