A Ph2b to Evaluate Tildacerfont in the Reduction of Glucocorticoid Steroid Doses in Adult CAH

January 22, 2024 updated by: Spruce Biosciences

A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of SPR001 (Tildacerfont) in Reducing Supraphysiologic Glucocorticoid Use in Adult Subjects With Classic Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia

An investigation of the ability of Tildacerfont to reduce supraphysiologic glucocorticoid dosing in classic CAH subjects up to 76 weeks of treatment. Optional open label extension up to 240 weeks.

Active, not recruiting

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

This is a study that will evaluate the ability of Tildacerfont to reduce the glucocorticoid steroid dose used by adult CAH subjects. The first 24-weeks will be a double-blind, placebo controlled, comparison of Tildacerfont vs Placebo. The following 52-weeks will allow all subjects to move to open label Tildacerfont to continue to reduce steroid dose where appropriate, and observe long term safety. Subjects will be offered a long term open label extension up to 240 weeks.
