Official title Pharmacokinetic (PK), Pharmacodynamic (PD) and Tolerability of Osilodrostat in Pediatric Patients With Cushing's Syndrome

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT03708900

What this study is testing

What is LCI699?

LCI699 is an investigational medicine, given as a pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for cushing syndrome.

Also referred to as osilodrostat.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
Multicenter, open-label, non-comparative study to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and tolerability of osilodrostat in children and adolescent patients with Cushing's syndrome.
  • Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
