PMON165 Favorable Liver Safety Profile of the Selective Glucocorticoid Receptor Modulator Relacorilant in Healthy and Hepatically Impaired Adults and in Patients with Cushing Syndrome

ABSTRACT: Abstract

Background

Relacorilant is a highly selective glucocorticoid receptor (GR) modulator in development for the treatment of endogenous Cushing syndrome (CS). Unlike the FDA-approved GR antagonist mifepristone, relacorilant lacks affinity for the progesterone and other receptors. In a phase 2 study in patients with CS (NCT02804750, Pivonello et al, 2021), relacorilant provided clinically meaningful changes in a number of cortisol-excess-related comorbidities, including hypertension and hyperglycemia, without undesirable antiprogesterone effects or drug-induced hypokalemia. Currently, 4 clinical studies of relacorilant in patients with CS are ongoing: GRACE (NCT03697109), a phase 3 trial enrolling patients with endogenous CS of all etiologies; GRADIENT (NCT04308590), a phase 3
