    Efficacy and Safety of Pasireotide Administered Monthly in Patients With Cushing's Disease

    NCT01374906

    4 Nov 2011 to 21 Dec 2016

Registry summary

Text and fields below are the sponsor's entries at ClinicalTrials.gov, shown as posted.

This is a randomized, double-blind, multicenter, phase III study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of 2 dosing regiments of Pasireotide long acting release (LAR) in patients with Cushing's disease.

Interventions

  • pasireotide LARDrug
  • SOM230 LAR 30 mgDrug
  • SOM230 LAR 10 mgDrug

Arms2

  • Experimental

    10 mg LAR dose

    Randomization was stratified based on Screening mUFC to ensure balanced distribution of disease severity in the two dose arms.

  • Experimental

    30 mg LAR dose

    Randomization was stratified based on Screening mUFC to ensure balanced distribution of disease severity in the two dose arms.

Primary outcomes1

Outcomes the sponsor listed as primary.

    Registry description

    Percentage of participants that attained a mean urinary free cortisol (mUFC) \<= 1.0 x upper limit of normal (ULN) at Month 7 regardless of dose up-titration at Month 4. Patients who discontinued before month 4 evaluations classed as non-responders. For patients missing month 7 mUFC assessments, the last available mUFC assessment at or after month 4 was carried forward as the month 7 mUFC assessment value.
