    Abstract: Rotation thromboelastometry (ROTEM ® ) can be used for hypercoagulability evaluation. Cushing's syndrome (CS) is associated with hypercoagulability; however, ROTEM ® has never been evaluated in this setting. Objective To evaluate hypercoagulability in CS using ROTEM ® and to correlate these parameters with coagulation markers and with the presence of deep vein thrombosis. Design and methods Thirty patients with active CS (26 women) and 30 controls matched for age, sex, body mass index, diabetes mellitus, arterial hypertension, ABO blood group and smoking were included. We measured levels of activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), platelets, fibrinogen, D‐dimer, factor VIII (FVIII), von Willebrand factor (vWF) and C‐reactive protein. ROTEM ® was used to evaluate the intrinsic (INTEM), extrinsic (EXTEM) and fibrinogen (FIBTEM) pathways. Doppler ultrasonography was performed to search for lower limbs deep vein thrombosis. Results INTEM clotting time using ROTEM ® was shorter in patients than in controls ( P  = 0·04). Other ROTEM ® parameters were not different. Mean aPTT was shorter in patients than in controls ( P  = 0·001). The FVIII, vWF and D‐dimer levels were higher in patients than in controls ( P  = 0·001, 0·001 and 0·02, respectively). Obese CS patients presented higher levels of platelets and alterations in maximum clot formation (MCF), alpha angle and maximum speed of clot formation of INTEM ( P  = 0·03, 0·02 and 0·02, respectively) and an increase in the MCF of FIBTEM ( P  = 0·02). No deep vein thrombosis was found. Conclusions Although FVIII and vWF were abnormal in CS patients, only the initiation clot formation was different in the ROTEM ® methodology and no deep vein thrombosis was found.

    Abstract: Acromegaly treatment has greatly evolved in recent decades, but there are still patients whose acromegaly is not controlled with currently available treatments, and there is a need to improve the treatment burden. Fortunately, there are new treatments under development that may increase treatment efficacy and convenience.

    Abstract: The 14th Acromegaly Consensus Conference was convened to consider biochemical criteria for acromegaly diagnosis and evaluation of therapeutic efficacy. Methods Fifty-six acromegaly experts from 16 countries reviewed and discussed current evidence focused on biochemical assays; criteria for diagnosis and the role of imaging, pathology, and clinical assessments; consequences of diagnostic delay; criteria for remission and recommendations for follow up; and the value of assessment and monitoring in defining disease progression, selecting appropriate treatments, and maximizing patient outcomes. Results In a patient with typical acromegaly features, insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I 〉 1.3 times the upper limit of normal for age confirms the diagnosis. Random growth hormone (GH) measured after overnight fasting may be useful for informing prognosis, but is not required for diagnosis. For patients with equivocal results, IGF-I measurements using the same validated assay can be repeated, and oral glucose tolerance testing might also be useful. Although biochemical remission is the primary assessment of treatment outcome, biochemical findings should be interpreted within the clinical context of acromegaly. Follow up assessments should consider biochemical evaluation of treatment effectiveness, imaging studies evaluating residual/recurrent adenoma mass, and clinical signs and symptoms of acromegaly, its complications, and comorbidities. Referral to a multidisciplinary pituitary center should be considered for patients with equivocal biochemical, pathology, or imaging findings at diagnosis, and for patients insufficiently responsive to standard treatment approaches. Conclusion Consensus recommendations highlight new understandings of disordered GH and IGF-I in patients with acromegaly and the importance of expert management for this rare disease.

    Abstract: The aim of the Acromegaly Consensus Group was to revise and update the consensus on diagnosis and treatment of acromegaly comorbidities last published in 2013. Participants The Consensus Group, convened by 11 Steering Committee members, consisted of 45 experts in the medical and surgical management of acromegaly. The authors received no corporate funding or remuneration. Evidence This evidence-based consensus was developed using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) system to describe both the strength of recommendations and the quality of evidence following critical discussion of the current literature on the diagnosis and treatment of acromegaly comorbidities. Consensus Process Acromegaly Consensus Group participants conducted comprehensive literature searches for English-language papers on selected topics, reviewed brief presentations on each topic, and discussed current practice and recommendations in breakout groups. Consensus recommendations were developed based on all presentations and discussions. Members of the Scientific Committee graded the quality of the supporting evidence and the consensus recommendations using the GRADE system. Conclusions Evidence-based approach consensus recommendations address important clinical issues regarding multidisciplinary management of acromegaly-related cardiovascular, endocrine, metabolic, and oncologic comorbidities, sleep apnea, and bone and joint disorders and their sequelae, as well as their effects on quality of life and mortality.

    Abstract: Osilodrostat, a potent oral 11β-hydroxylase inhibitor, provided rapid and sustained normalization of mean urinary free cortisol (mUFC) in patients with Cushing's disease (CD) during the 48-week (W) core period of LINC 4 (NCT02697734), and was well tolerated. We report long-term efficacy and safety results from the LINC 4 core and extension phases combined. Methods 73 adults with CD and mUFC & gt;1.3× the upper limit of normal (ULN) were enrolled. LINC 4 comprised a 12W, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled period followed by 36W of open-label osilodrostat. At W48, patients could enter an optional extension. Dose adjustments were permitted based on efficacy/tolerability (range during open-label treatment 1–30 mg bid). LINC 4 ended when all patients transitioned to a separate long-term safety study (not reported) or discontinued treatment. Efficacy/safety are reported for all patients unless otherwise stated, and excludes data collected during W1–12 for placebo recipients. Results Of the 65 patients who completed the core phase, 60 entered the extension. Median (range) osilodrostat exposure from core baseline to study end was 87.1 (2–127) W; median average (IQR) dose was 4.6 (3.7–9.2) mg/day. 15 patients discontinued osilodrostat; 7 after W48 (6 because of adverse events [AEs]). The proportion of patients with normal mUFC (≤138 nmol/24h [50 µg/24h] ) was 68.5% (n=50/73) at W48, 61.5% (n=40/65) at W72 and 72.4% (n=42/58) at the end-of-treatment extension (EOT) visit. Median mUFC decreased from 2.5×ULN (core baseline) to 0.5×ULN (W48 and W72), to 0.4×ULN (EOT). Median late-night salivary cortisol decreased from 2.8×ULN (core baseline) to 1.2×ULN (W48 and W72), to 1.1×ULN (EOT).The most common AEs during the entire study were decreased appetite (46.6%), arthralgia (45.2%), fatigue (39.7%), nausea (37.0%), headache (34.2%) and dizziness (30.1%). Hypocortisolism- and adrenal-hormone-precursor-accumulation-related AEs occurred in 28.8% (21/73) and 61.6% (45/73) of patients during the entire study, less frequently in the extension than the core. Most were grade 1/2 and resolved with dose reduction/interruption and/or concomitant medication. During the extension, hirsutism and acne were reported as AEs by 1 and 0 patients, respectively.Median ACTH increased from 1.1×ULN (core baseline) to 3.0×ULN (W48), to 3.6×ULN (W72), to 3.5×ULN (EOT). Median change (95% CI) in pituitary tumor volume (assessed by MRI) from core baseline to last available assessment was 4.0 mm3 (−24.1–169.8); pituitary-tumor-enlargement-related AEs led to drug discontinuation in 2 and 0 patients during the core and extension, respectively. No trend was observed between tumor volume change and osilodrostat dose. Conclusion Osilodrostat provided long-term control of cortisol production during LINC 4. Fewer AEs related to hypocortisolism and accumulation of adrenal-hormone-precursors occurred during the extension than during the core. Osilodrostat is an effective and well-tolerated long-term treatment option for CD patients. Presentation: Tuesday, June 14, 2022 10:15 a.m. - 10:30 a.m.

    Abstract: Cushing's disease (CD) is a serious disorder associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, and reduced patient quality of life (QoL), because of hypercortisolism. We report long-term effects of osilodrostat, a potent 11β-hydroxylase inhibitor, on cardiovascular/metabolic-related risk factors, physical features of hypercortisolism and QoL in CD patients following the core and extension phases of the LINC 4 study (NCT02697734). Methods LINC 4 comprised a 12-week (W), randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled period, 36W of open-label osilodrostat, and an optional extension phase in adults with CD and mUFC & gt;1.3xULN. Dose adjustments were permitted based on efficacy/tolerability (range during open-label treatment 1–30 mg bid). LINC 4 ended when all patients transitioned to a separate long-term safety study or discontinued treatment. Cardiovascular/metabolic-related parameters, physical features of hypercortisolism (rating: 0=absent; 1=mild; 2=moderate; 3=severe), and CushingQoL score were evaluated at core baseline, every 2, 4, 12 or 24W (depending on study phase/parameter) and at the end-of-treatment extension (EOT) visit. Change from baseline is provided for patients with assessments at core baseline, W48 and EOT. Results Of the 65 patients completing W48, 60 entered the extension. Median (range) osilodrostat exposure from core baseline to study end: 87.1 (2–127) W; median (IQR) average dose: 4.6 (3.7‍–‍9.2) mg/day. Mean changes (95% CI) in cardiovascular/metabolic-related parameters from core baseline to W48 and EOT, respectively, included decreases in systolic (−9.7 [−14.9, −4.6] mmHg; −12.4 [−17.4, −7.4] mmHg; baseline: 131.5 mmHg) and diastolic (−4.2 [−7.3, −1.2] mmHg; −5.6 [−8.9, −2.4] mmHg; baseline 87.5 mmHg) blood pressure, fasting plasma glucose (−3.1 [−6.8, 0.6] mg/dL; −3.5 [−8.5, 1.4] mg/dL; baseline: 95.3 mg/dL) and cholesterol (−0.5 [−0.8, −0.2] mmol/L; −0.6 [−0.9, −0.3] mmol/L; baseline: 5.5 mmol/L). Improvements (mean change [95% CI]) from core baseline to W48 and EOT also occurred for weight (–4.3 [–5.9, –2.6] kg; –6.8 [–8.8, –4.8] kg; baseline: 78.3 kg) and waist circumference (–4.5 [–6.0, –3.1] cm; –7.6 [–9.6, –5.6] cm; baseline: 102.8 cm). Physical features of hypercortisolism improved (severity reduced) or remained stable from core baseline to EOT in most patients (respectively): ecchymosis (21% [n=10/48]; 79% [n=38/48] ), striae (26%; n=12/46; 72% [n=33/46]), hirsutism in females (29% [n=11/38] ; 61% [n=23/38]), muscle weakness (33% [n=16/49] ; 61% [n=30/49]), facial rubor (48% [n=23/48] ; 46% [n=22/48]), central obesity (55% [n=27/49] ; 37% [n=18/49]), and fat pads (dorsal: 58% [n=28/48] ; 31% [n=15/48]; supraclavicular: 65% [n=32/49] ; 35% [n=17/49]). CushingQoL score improved from core baseline to W48 and EOT (mean change [95% CI] : 12.0 [8.2, 15.9]; 17.1 [12.5, 21.7] ; baseline: 51.8). Conclusion Most cardiovascular/metabolic-related parameters continued to improve during long-term osilodrostat treatment. Additionally, most physical features of hypercortisolism, including hirsutism, either improved or remained stable, and CushingQoL score improved. Osilodrostat is an effective treatment that may alleviate disease burden for many patients with CD. Presentation: Monday, June 13, 2022 12:30 p.m. - 2:30 p.m.

Introduction: Phase II (LINC 2, NCT01331239) and Phase III (LINC 3, NCT02180217; LINC 4, NCT02697734) studies showed that osilodrostat, a potent oral 11β-hydroxylase inhibitor, was an effective long-term therapy for Cushing’s disease (CD) patients (pts). Objective: This pooled analysis of the LINC program examined how dosing, including dose uptitration and adjustments during long-term maintenance, can provide rapid, sustained mUFC control, minimize AEs and improve treatment outcomes. Methods: Individual pt data from LINC 2, LINC 3 and LINC 4 were pooled and analyzed. Given differences in study designs across trials, placebo treatment periods were excluded. Pts with mUFC & gt;1.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) (LINC 2 and LINC 3) or mUFC & gt;1.3 x ULN (LINC 4) were enrolled. In LINC 2, pts started open-label osilodrostat 2 mg twice daily (bid), with dose increases every 2 weeks (W) if mUFC & gt;ULN. In LINC 3, pts started open-label osilodrostat 2 mg bid, with dose increases every 2W until W12 if mUFC & gt;ULN, then every 4W after W12. In LINC 4, pts were randomized to osilodrostat 2 mg bid or placebo for the first 12W. Dose was increased every 3W until W12 if mUFC & gt;ULN and every 3W after W12. Maximum dose was 30 mg bid in all studies (reduced from 50 mg bid in LINC 2 core phase). Dose adjustments were permitted during the extensions based on efficacy and tolerability. Results: This analysis included 229 pts. Median (min-max) osilodrostat exposure was 100.1 weeks (1–351). Median (min–max) daily osilodrostat dose was 6.8 mg/day (1–47); dose needed to achieve mUFC control varied widely between pts. Median time to first mUFC control was 35 days (D; 95% confidence interval [CI] 34–41) in all pts; according to baseline (BL) mUFC severity: mUFC & lt;2 x ULN, 28D (95% CI 17–34); mUFC 2–5 x ULN, 40D (95% CI 34–42); mUFC & gt;5 x ULN, 52D (95% CI 41–56). Median time to first AE of special interest (AESI) was 12W (95% CI 10–15); AESIs occurred at different osilodrostat doses. AEs related to hypocortisolism (BL to W12, 23%; W12–48, 24%; W48–72, 8%; W72 onwards, 20%) and accumulation of adrenal hormone precursors (BL to W12, 36%; W12–48, 37%; W48–72, 14%; W72 onwards, 18%) were less frequent during long-term maintenance than dose titration. AESIs were mostly manageable with dose interruption and/or additional therapy; few patients discontinued treatment as a result (hypocortisolism-related AEs, n=8; adrenal hormone precursor accumulation-related AEs, n=3). Conclusions: Osilodrostat led to sustained mUFC control in all 3 studies; time to control was shorter in pts with lower BL mUFC values. Median daily osilodrostat dose was low but varied widely. Dose titration regimens differed for each study, but AESIs were less frequent during long-term treatment than dose uptitration and were manageable in most pts without stopping treatment. Personalized therapy during dose titration and lifelong monitoring are needed to optimize clinical outcomes in CD pts. Presentation: Thursday, June 15, 2023
