Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 2 to 17 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child

Who may be able to join

  • Male and female children and adolescents from 2 to < 18 years of age with Cushing's syndrome of endogenous origin: Who have failed surgery (or) who are awaiting surgery (or) for whom surgery is not an immediate option. For patients who are awaiting surgery, the study treatment could be less than 12 weeks.
  • Patients must weigh > 10 kg.
  • The diagnosis of Cushing's syndrome must be confirmed by each of the following:
  • 3a) The clinical criterion of decreasing growth percentiles with increasing weight (as evidenced by the presence of a contrast in height and BMI SD scores, for example a SDS < 0 and BMI SDS > 0, or a strong clinical suspicion of Cushing's syndrome, such as photographic evidence of a change in facial appearance); 3b) Abnormal low-dose (0.5 mg Q6h x 48 hours, or overnight 15mcg/kg [max 1 mg]) dexamethasone suppression test, defined as plasma cortisol levels > 1.8 mcg/dl, at time point 48 hours (0.5 mg Q6h x 48 hours) or 9 to 12 hours (overnight 15mcg/kg [max 1 mg]) after the first dose of dexamethasone; (OR) Midnight serum cortisol levels > ULN, assessed while the patient is sleeping and after pre-cannulation (OR) two samples of late-night salivary cortisol greater than ULN for the assay. 3c)Two 24-hour urinary free cortisol values > 1.3 x ULN;
  • 4. Able to swallow study drug tablets (not crushed or split) or the content of the capsules mixed with water.

  • Use of other investigational drugs at the time of enrollment, or within 30 days, or prior to completion of a wash-out duration that is at least 5 half- lives of the drug, at the time of enrollment, whichever is longer. Local regulations may require a longer wash-out period or specify other limitations for participation in an investigational trial, in which case they will be applicable as well.
  • History of hypersensitivity to drugs of the same or similar chemical classes as osilodrostat.
  • History of malignancy of any organ system (other than localized basal cell carcinoma of the skin), treated or untreated, within the past 5 years, regardless of whether there is evidence of local recurrence or metastases.

  • Female patients of childbearing potential who do not agree to use highly effective birth control methods .
  • Pregnant or nursing (lactating) women.
  • Any medical condition that would, in the investigator's judgment, prevent the patient's participation in the clinical study due to safety concerns or compliance with clinical study procedures. Any severe, acute, or chronic medical or psychiatric condition or laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk associated with study participation or study treatment administration or that may interfere with the interpretation of study results and, in the judgment of the investigator, would make the patient inappropriate for the study.

About this study

Official title: A Phase II, Multicenter, Open-label, Non-comparative Study to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Tolerability of Osilodrostat in Children and Adolescent Patients With Cushing's Syndrome

Multicenter, open-label, non-comparative study to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and tolerability of osilodrostat in children and adolescent patients with Cushing's syndrome.

Read the detailed description

The period 1 study duration will be 12 weeks. The study will include a screening period of up to 4 weeks prior to Day 0 (baseline) (to allow for an adequate washout period from any medications that may modify cortisol levels). All subjects being treated with osilodrostat at 12 weeks and obtaining benefit from therapy, per investigator judgment, will be offered participation in an optional 9-month extension period, during which assessment of the PD activity and safety/tolerability of osilodrostat will be done. Patients who do not enter the optional extension period will have a safety follow up visit 4 weeks later.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing LCI699 in people with Cushing Syndrome, run by RECORDATI GROUP at 15 sites in 7 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 21 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Mar 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 15 sites in United States, France, Italy, United Kingdom, Belgium and 2 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Recordati (+39 0248787456, casi.m@recordati.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Core Study: Evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of osilodrostat using Pharmacokinetic parameters of osilodrostat up to Week 12 in children and adolescents 2 to less than 18 years of age with Cushing's Syndrome (time frame: up to Week 12). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 27 Mar 2026.
