Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • INCLUSION CRITERIA:
  • SONICS STUDY COMPLETERS:
  • Completed the final SONICS visit (M12) and have demonstrated maintenance of clinical response on a stable Therapeutic Dose of levoketoconazole for at least 12 weeks prior to study entry.
  • ALL OTHERS:
  • Confirmed newly diagnosed, persistent or recurrent endogenous Cushing's syndrome of any etiology, except secondary to malignancy (including pituitary or adrenal carcinoma).
  • Elevated mean 24-hour Urinary Free Cortisol (UFC) levels at least 1.5X upper limit of the normative range of the study's central laboratory assay and from a minimum of three measurements from adequately collected urine.
  • Presence of abnormal values from at least one of these two diagnostic tests:
  • Abnormal Dexamethasone Suppression Test (DST) OR
  • Elevated late night salivary cortisol concentrations (at least two measurements) each greater than the upper limit of the study's central laboratory normative range
  • Non-candidates for CS-specific surgery, refuse surgery or surgery will be delayed until after study completion and agree to complete this study prior to surgery.
  • If post-surgical for CS-specific surgery, then no significant post-operative sequelae remain and the risk of such sequelae is considered negligible.
  • EXCLUSION CRITERIA:
  • Subjects will be excluded from the study if ANY of the following criteria are met (NOTE: exclusion criteria apply to and must be assessed in both cohorts):
  • Enrolled in SONICS but have not completed SONICS through Visit M12.
  • Pseudo-Cushing's syndrome based on assessment of the Investigator.
  • Cyclic Cushing's syndrome with multi-week periods of apparent spontaneous CS remission.
  • Non-endogenous source of hypercortisolism, including pharmacological corticosteroids or ACTH.
  • Radiotherapy of any modality directed against the source of hypercortisolism within the last 5 years.
  • Treatment with mitotane within 6 months of enrollment.
  • History of malignancy, including adrenal or pituitary carcinomas (other than low-risk, well-differentiated carcinomas of thyroid, breast or prostate that are very unlikely to require further treatment in the opinion of the treating physician, or squamous cell or basal cell carcinoma of the skin).
  • Clinical or radiological signs of compression of the optic chiasm.
