A Study to Evaluate the Safety and PK of CRN04894 for the Treatment of Cushing's Syndrome

Study Purpose

A Phase 1b/2a, first-in-disease, open-label, multiple-ascending dose exploratory study to evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamic biomarker responses associated with CRN04894 (an adrenocorticotropic hormone [ACTH] receptor antagonist) in participants with ACTH-dependent Cushing's syndrome (Cushing's disease or Ectopic ACTH Syndrome [EAS])

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms	No
Study Type An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes. An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes. Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.	Interventional
Eligible Ages	18 Years and Over
Gender	All

More Inclusion & Exclusion Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Adult male or female, aged 18 years or more. 2. Evidence of chronic 'active' ACTH-dependent Cushing's syndrome. 3. Evidence of acutely 'active' ACTH-dependent Cushing's syndrome within 10 days of Day 1. 4. Participants with documented ACTH-dependent Cushing's syndrome taking short-acting steroidogenesis inhibitors (ketoconazole, levoketoconazole, osilodrostat, or metyrapone) may participate after a washout period of at least 5 days, if they meet other study inclusion criteria, relative to Investigator's judgment. Participants with documented ACTH-dependent Cushing's syndrome taking cabergoline may participate after a washout period of at least 14 days, if they meet other study inclusion criteria.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Women who are pregnant or lactating. 2. History of bilateral adrenalectomy. 3. Previous pituitary MRI findings of a putative ACTH-secreting lesion within 3 mm of the optic chiasm. 4. Presence of any known malignancy. 5. Use of mitotane. 6. Previous unsuccessful surgery for Cushing's syndrome within 6 weeks

Trial Details

Trial ID: This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.	NCT05804669
Phase Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans. Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data. Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs. Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.	Phase 1/Phase 2

Additional Details

This is a Phase 1b/2a, first-in-disease, open-label, multiple-ascending dose exploratory study to evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamic biomarker responses associated with atumelnant (also known as CRN04894) (an adrenocorticotropic hormone [ACTH] receptor antagonist) over a 10-day or 14-day treatment period in participants with ACTH-dependent Cushing's syndrome (Cushing's disease or Ectopic ACTH Syndrome [EAS]). Participants will receive oral atumelnant once daily for 10 days followed by monitoring during 4 'wash-out' days, or for 14 days.

Arms & Interventions

Arms

Experimental: Multiple Ascending Doses

Sequential, open-label, 10-day or 14-day fixed-dose cohorts.

Interventions

Drug: - atumelnant

Atumelnant is an orally active investigational agent which antagonizes the action of ACTH at its receptor administered as oral tablets.
