Study to Determine the Prevalence of Hypercortisolism in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes and Treatment With Korlym® (Mifepristone) (CATALYST)

February 22, 2024 updated by: Corcept Therapeutics

Study of Hypercortisolism in Patients With Difficult to Control Type 2 Diabetes Despite Receiving Standard-of-Care Therapies: Prevalence and Treatment With Korlym® (Mifepristone) (CATALYST)

This is a Phase 4 study with 2 parts: Part 1 (Prevalence Phase) is non-interventional and will assess the prevalence of hypercortisolism in a population with difficult to control type 2 diabetes (T2D) (hemoglobin A1c ≥7.5%) despite receiving standard-of-care therapies. Part 2 (Treatment Phase) is a randomized, prospective, placebo-controlled, double-blind multi-center trial that will assess the safety and efficacy of mifepristone treatment in patients with hypercortisolism who have difficult to control T2D despite receiving standard of care therapies.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This is a Phase 4 study with 2 parts at approximately 30 sites in the United States (US).

Part 1 (Prevalence Phase) is non-interventional and will assess the prevalence of hypercortisolism in a population with difficult to control T2D (HbA1c ≥7.5%) despite receiving standard-of-care therapies.

Patients from Part 1 Prevalence Phase who meet eligibility requirements can then enroll in Part 2 and will be randomized 2:1 to receive mifepristone or placebo once daily with food. Randomization will be stratified by presence of adenoma (yes/no).

Part 2 (Treatment Phase) is a randomized, prospective, placebo-controlled, double-blind multi-center trial that will assess the safety and efficacy of mifepristone treatment in patients with hypercortisolism who have difficult to control T2D despite receiving standard of care therapies.
