Cushing’s Syndrome Understanding
Cushing’s Syndrome: Overview
Cushing’s disease is considered a rare condition characterized by the hypersecretion of the adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) due to a pituitary adenoma that ultimately causes endogenous hypercortisolism by stimulating the adrenal glands. It’s also known as hypercortisolism. The clinical signs suggesting Cushing’s disease, such as obesity, moon face, hirsutism, and facial plethora. Endogenous hypercortisolism is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular and metabolic manifestations, as well as respiratory disorders, psychiatric complications, osteoporosis and infections, leading to high rates of morbidity and mortality. Signs and symptoms of Cushing's syndrome vary. People who have very high levels of cortisol for a long time are likely to have clear signs of the disorder, including: weight gain, thin arms and legs, a round face, increased fat around the base of the neck, a fatty hump between the shoulders, wide purple stretch marks, mainly on the abdomen, breasts, hips, and under the arms and weak muscles
Children with Cushing’s syndrome tend to have obesity and grow more slowly than other children. Women may have excess hair on their face, neck, chest, abdomen, and thighs. Menstrual periods may become irregular or stop. Men may have decreased fertility with lowered interest in sex and may have erectile dysfunction.
"Cushing Syndrome- Pipeline Insight, 2022" report by DelveInsight outlays comprehensive insights of present scenario and growth prospects across the indication. A detailed picture of the Cushing Syndrome pipeline landscape is provided which includes the disease overview and Cushing Syndrome treatment guidelines. The assessment part of the report embraces, in depth Cushing Syndrome commercial assessment and clinical assessment of the pipeline products under development. In the report, detailed description of the drug is given which includes mechanism of action of the drug, clinical studies, NDA approvals (if any), and product development activities comprising the technology, collaborations, licensing, mergers and acquisition, funding, designations and other product related details.
Report Highlights
- The companies and academics are working to assess challenges and seek opportunities that could influence in Cushing Syndrome R&D. The therapies under development are focused on novel approaches to treat/improve in Cushing Syndrome.
- In May, 2021 Sparrow Pharmaceuticals presented new data of SPI-62 trial. SPI-62 is a potent and selective HSD-1 inhibitor, has demonstrated the ability to reduce intracellular cortisol in the liver by 90. Results of four Phase 1 and Phase 2 clinical trials in which SPI-62 was administered to 165 individuals showed, Pharmacokinetics supportive of once-daily oral dosing. Generally good safety and tolerability at and above the anticipated clinical dose.
- In August 2021, CRN04894: Crinetics Pharmaceuticals announced positive preliminary findings from the single ascending dose (SAD) portion of a first-in-human Phase 1 clinical study with CRN04894 demonstrating pharmacologic proof-of-concept for this first-in-class, investigational, oral, nonpeptide adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) antagonist that is being developed for the treatment of conditions of ACTH excess, including Cushing’s disease and congenital adrenal hyperplasia.
Cushing Syndrome Emerging Drugs Chapter
This segment of the Cushing Syndrome report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including phase II, I, preclinical and Discovery.

Cushing Syndrome Emerging Drugs
Relacorilant: Corcept Therapeutics
Relacorilant is a non-steroidal, selective glucocorticoid receptor modulator that does not bind to the body's other hormone receptors. Corcept is studying relacorilant in a variety of serious disorders, including ovarian and adrenal cancer and Cushing’s syndrome. Relacorilant is proprietary to Corcept and is protected by composition of matter and method of use patents, as well as orphan drug designation in the United States for the treatment of pancreatic cancer and both the United States and the European Union for the treatment of Cushing’s syndrome.
SPI-62: Sparrow Pharmaceuticals
SPI-62 is an oral, small molecule, novel 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (HSD-1) inhibitor. Sparrow’s lead proprietary small molecule SPI-62 reduces intracellular cortisol, the main cause of morbidity in Cushing syndrome. SPI-62 was associated with few, mostly mild, adverse effects in four prior clinical trials. In subjects with diabetic peripheral neuropathy, SPI-62 showed clinically meaningful separation from placebo on HbA1c, glucose, cholesterol, and triglycerides.
CRN04894: Crinetics Pharmaceuticals
CRN04894 is a nonpeptide, small molecule that is designed to be taken orally to block the interaction of ACTH with its target receptor. It has the potential to offer a life-saving treatment option to patients with Cushing’s disease, CAH and related diseases. Based on encouraging preclinical results, Company initiated a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled Phase 1 study of this orally administered, nonpeptide small molecule drug candidate in healthy volunteers. This study will assess the safety and tolerability of single and multiple doses of CRN04894 and will measure the effect of CRN04894 on suppression of cortisol, cortisol precursors, and adrenal androgens following exogenous ACTH stimulation.
