Abstract: Pituitary tumors may be reduced in size by administration of relacorilant. Pituitary tumors include, without limitation, non-secreting tumors, hormone-secreting tumors, adenomas, and carcinomas. Relacorilant administration may be effective to reduce hormone secretion from a hormone-secreting pituitary tumor, e.g., to reduce adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH) secretion. A pituitary tumor may be imaged before and/or after relacorilant administration. Relacorilant may be administered independent of surgery, and before, during, or after surgery to treat a pituitary tumor. Relacorilant may aid or improve surgical outcomes, and may reduce the size or growth of pituitary tumor tissue before surgery, and any tumor tissue remaining following surgical treatment. Relacorilant may be orally administered for the treatment of pituitary tumors. Relacorilant may be orally administered to a fasted patient, or to a fed patient.

The methods and compositions include administration of a heteroaryl-ketone fused azadecalin glucocorticoid receptor modulator (GRM).

Abstract: Methods and uses for treating an adrenal gland tumor in a subject suffering therefrom are disclosed, to reduce the size or tumor load of, prevent the growth of, or slow the growth of, or reduce or alter secretions from, or induce degeneration or apoptosis in, the adrenal gland tumor. The novel treatments include use of, or administration of, an effective amount of the glucocorticoid receptor modulator (GRM) compound having a heteroaryl-ketone fused azadecalin structure to a patient suffering from an adrenal gland tumor. The adrenal gland tumor may be a benign adrenal gland tumor. The GRM may be relacorilant, which is ((R)-(1-(4-fluorophenyl)-6-((1-methyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)sulfonyl)-4,4a,5,6,7,8-hexahydro-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-g]isoquinolin-4a-yl)(4-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine-2-yl)methanone). The GRM may be orally administered. The GRM may be administered with food. The treatments may be used in the absence of surgery, or prior to, or during, or after surgery for the adrenal gland tumor.

Abstract: Methods and uses are disclosed for treating a subject suffering from a disorder selected from a liver disorder, Cushing's syndrome, or Cushing's Disease, cancer, an infection, an inflammatory condition, a cardiovascular, endocrine, or kidney disease, and combinations thereof, or other disorder for which they may be administered a drug which may cause liver toxicity, without adverse effects on the liver. Such liver disorders include fatty liver diseases are effective for reducing high levels of liver enzymes with a favorable safety profile. The methods and uses comprise administering to the subject an effective amount of a selective nonsteroidal glucocorticoid receptor modulator such as relacorilant, including methods and uses in combination with another drug, without adverse effects on liver enzyme levels, or on liver function. In embodiments, the other drug may be a drug that may cause liver toxicity, such as drugs that inhibit CYP3A enzymes, e.g., itraconazole or ketoconazole.

Abstract: Applicant discloses methods, uses, and compositions of heteroaryl ketone fused azadecalin compounds for treating patients suffering from Cushing's syndrome or Cushing's Disease (collectively “CS”) without causing significant QT interval prolongation (e.g., the QT interval following administration differs by no more than about 10 milliseconds from the baseline QT interval). Therapeutic amounts of the heteroaryl ketone fused azadecalin compounds may be between about 50 milligrams per day (mg/day) and up to about 500 mg/day, and in embodiments may be up to about 800 mg/day. The methods, uses, and compositions may reduce QT interval, and may be useful for treating QT prolongation in patients, including CS patients. The treatments may be oral treatments administered to a fasted patient, or to a fed patient. The heteroaryl ketone fused azadecalin compounds may be administered with a meal.

Abstract: This invention provides new methods for a) identifying Cushing's Syndrome patients at high risk of developing hypokalemia during glucocorticoid receptor modulator (GRM) treatment, and b) for prophylactically treating such patients to prevent, or reduce the severity of, hypokalemia. Patients at such high risk may be identified prior to their developing hypokalemia. Such a patient may be an adult patient with endogenous Cushing's Syndrome having type 2 diabetes mellitus or glucose intolerance to control hyperglycemia secondary to hypercortisolism. Patients may be identified by an above-threshold level of ACTH or cortisol in a patient sample taken post-GRM administration or pre-GRM administration, respectively. Upon identifying such a patient prior to the development of low potassium, the present methods provide for prophylactically treating the patient by administration of one or more hypokalemia treatments concurrently with an increased dose of GRM or with an initial dose of GRM to prevent hypokalemia.

Abstract: Novel methods of treating tumors, including neuroendocrine tumors (NET), such as a catecholamine-secreting tumor (CST), are disclosed. The methods include treating Cushing's syndrome in a Cushing's syndrome patient having a NET, such as a CST. Tumors may be treated with a glucocorticoid receptor (GR) modulator (GRM), such as a GR antagonist (GRA). The novel treatments may treat Cushing's syndrome, may reduce catecholamine production by the tumor, may reduce catecholamine excess, may ameliorate symptoms of catecholamine excess, and may improve the efficacy of ?-adrenergic or ?-adrenergic blockade, somatostatin or somatostatin analog treatment or imaging, or Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy, in patients with a CST. The GRM may reduce the activation of a GR, and may bind to a GR with higher affinity than it binds to a progesterone receptor (PR). In embodiments, the drug may only poorly bind to PR, or may not measurably bind to PR.

Abstract: Pituitary tumors may be reduced in size by administration of relacorilant. Pituitary tumors include, without limitation, non-secreting tumors, hormone-secreting tumors, adenomas, and carcinomas. Relacorilant administration may be effective to reduce hormone secretion from a hormone-secreting pituitary tumor, e.g., to reduce adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH) secretion. A pituitary tumor may be imaged before and/or after relacorilant administration. Relacorilant may be administered independent of surgery, and before, during, or after surgery to treat a pituitary tumor. Relacorilant may aid or improve surgical outcomes, and may reduce the size or growth of pituitary tumor tissue before surgery, and any tumor tissue remaining following surgical treatment. Relacorilant may be orally administered for the treatment of pituitary tumors. Relacorilant may be orally administered to a fasted patient, or to a fed patient.
