About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Cushing's Syndrome

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Patients with endogenous Cushing's syndrome:

  • Cushing disease patients with persistent or recurrent disease (after pituitary surgery) or who are newly diagnosed but are unsuitable for early surgery or wish to defer surgery;
  • Patients with ectopic ACTH syndrome (either occult, after surgery failure, or inoperable or metastatic);
  • Patients with Cushing's syndrome from adrenal causes

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Pseudo Cushing's syndrome
  2. Cyclic Cushing's syndrome defined by at least one normal UFC value among at least three 24-hour urinary sampling measurements over the previous 2 months
  3. Advanced adrenocortical carcinoma or ectopic ACTH secretion (EAS) secondary to a small cell lung carcinoma
  4. Life expectancy less than 3 months
  5. Pituitary or adrenal surgery or pituitary irradiation or surgery of the ACTH-secreting ectopic tumor or bilateral adrenalectomy planned before the week 12 visit
  6. Pituitary irradiation within the previous 5 years (for Cushing's disease patients)
  7. Enlarged pituitary adenoma (greater than 1 cm in vertical diameter and leaving less than 2 mm from the chiasma) or compression of the optic chiasma on the pituitary MRI for patients with Cushing's disease
  8. Severe uncontrolled hypertension (>180/110 mmHg) despite anti-hypertensive therapy (for otherwise eligible patients, blood pressure medication may be adjusted to meet this criterion)
  9. Severe hypokalemia (< 2.5 mmol/L) despite corrective measures
  10. White blood cell counts <3 x 109 /L; hemoglobin <10 g/dL; platelets <100 x 109 /L
  11. Any other severe acute or chronic medical or psychiatric condition, or laboratory abnormality that in the judgment of the investigator, would present excess risk associated with study participation or study drug administration, or which, in the judgment of the investigator, would make the patient inappropriate for entry into this study.

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

Metyrapone

Arm Description

Metyrapone will be administered orally in an open-label fashion. Two possible initiation doses will be used depending on the severity of hypercortisolism, dose will then be adjusted (up or down-titrated) during the first month on an individual basis according to clinical tolerance and cortisol levels achieved.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Normalization of cortisol levels (urinary free cortisol)

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this prospective, international phase III/IV study is to assess the efficacy and safety of metyrapone in patients with endogenous Cushing's syndrome during up to 36 weeks of treatment. The ability of metyrapone (250 mg capsules) to normalize urinary free cortisol (UFC) levels will be assessed during up to 36 weeks (9 months) of treatment.
Detailed Description
This study will include Cushing disease patients with persistent or recurrent disease (after pituitary surgery) or who are newly diagnosed but are unsuitable for early surgery or wish to defer surgery. It will also include patients with ectopic ACTH syndrome (either occult, after surgery failure, or inoperable or metastatic) and patients with Cushing's syndrome from adrenal causes. The ability of metyrapone to normalize urinary free cortisol levels will be assessed during up to 36 weeks (9 months) of treatment. Patients participating in this study and who are controlled or close to the target at the end of a 3-months period may continue with an optional extension period of 6 months in which the long-term efficacy and safety profiles of metyrapone will be assessed. This extension study is intended to provide new findings to consolidate existing efficacy and safety data on metyrapone in the treatment of Cushing's syndrome.
