New drug tested to tame dangerous hormone flood

NCT ID NCT05307328

Summary

This study tested an investigational drug called SPI-62 to see if it could safely reduce the harmful excess cortisol caused by ACTH-dependent Cushing's syndrome. For 24 weeks, 26 adult participants received either the drug or a placebo, with an option to continue on the drug long-term. The goal was to control the disease by targeting a specific enzyme in the liver involved in cortisol production.
