Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study was to confirm efficacy and safety of osilodrostat for the treatment of patients with Cushing's disease who are candidates for medical therapy.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 3

Detailed Description

The study LCI699C2302 (LINC-4) is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of osilodrostat in patients with Cushing's disease.

Enrolled patients were initially randomized to either osilodrostat or placebo, in a 2:1 ratio, for a 12-week double-blind period (Period 1). Randomization was stratified by history of pituitary radiation. After Week 12, all patients received open-label osilodrostat until the end of the Core phase at Week 48 (Period 2).

After Week 48, patients could join an optional 48 week extension period.

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Percentage of Randomized Participants With a Complete Response [at Week 12]

      A complete responder at week 12 is defined as a participant who had a mean urine free cortisol ≤ upper limit of normal (mUFC ≤ ULN) at Week 12. Participants who had a missing mUFC assessment at Week 12 were counted as non-responders for the primary endpoint.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Percentage of Participants With mUFC ≤ ULN at Week 36 [At Week 36]

      The complete response rate in both arms combined at Week 36. A complete responder at Week 36 is defined as a participant who had mean urine free cortisol <= upper limit of normal (mUFC <= ULN) at Week 36. Participants with missing mUFC at Week 36 were counted as non-responders.

    2. Change From Baseline in mUFC [Baseline, weeks 2,5,8,12,14,17,20,23,26,29,32,36,40,48,60,72,84,96]

      To assess the change in mean urinary free cortisol (mUFC) from baseline by treatment arm.

    3. Time-to-first Control of mUFC - Number (%) of Participants With mUFC <=ULN [up to 12 weeks]

      To assess time-to-first control of mUFC, (in days) from randomization to the first mUFC collection that was ≤ ULN before completion/discontinuation of placebo-controlled period. Participants who did not achieve post-baseline mUFC control were censored at discontinuation or completion of placebo-controlled period, whichever was earlier.

    4. Time-to-first Control of mUFC - Median Time to First Controlled mUFC Response [up to 12 weeks]

      To assess time-to-first control of mUFC, (in days) from randomization to the first mUFC collection that was ≤ ULN before completion/discontinuation of placebo-controlled period. Participants who did not achieve post-baseline mUFC control were censored at discontinuation or completion of placebo-controlled period, whichever was earlier. The median time-to-first control and corresponding two-sided 95% Confidence Interval were calculated using Kaplan-Meier methodology of Brookmeyer and Crowley (1982).

    5. Time-to-first Control of mUFC - % Event Probability Estimates [up to 12 weeks]

      To assess time-to-first control of mUFC, (in days) from randomization to the first mUFC collection that was ≤ ULN before completion/discontinuation of placebo-controlled period. Participants who did not achieve post-baseline mUFC control were censored at discontinuation or completion of placebo-controlled period, whichever was earlier. % Event probability estimate is the estimated probability that a participant will have an event prior to the specified time point. % Event probability estimates are obtained from the Kaplan-Meier survival estimates for all treatment groups; Greenwood formula is used for Confidence Interval (CI) of Kaplan-Meier (KM) estimates.

    6. Time-to-escape During Osilodrostat Treatment From Collection of Normal mUFC (≤ ULN) to the First mUFC > 1.3 x ULN - Number (%) of Participants [up to 48 weeks]

      To assess time-to-escape from the first collection of normal mUFC (≤ ULN) to the first mUFC > 1.3 x ULN on two consecutive visits on the highest tolerated dose of osilodrostat and not related to a dose interruption or dose reduction due to safety reasons. Escape will not be assessed for participants during the first 26 weeks.

    7. Time-to-escape During Osilodrostat Treatment From Collection of Normal mUFC (≤ ULN) to the First mUFC > 1.3 x ULN - Median Time to Escape From Normal mUFC [from week 26 to week 48]

      To assess time-to-escape from the first collection of normal mUFC (≤ ULN) to the first mUFC > 1.3 x ULN on two consecutive visits on the highest tolerated dose of osilodrostat and not related to a dose interruption or dose reduction due to safety reasons. Escape will not be assessed for participants during the first 26 weeks. The median time-to-escape and corresponding two-sided 95% Confidence Interval were calculated using Kaplan-Meier methodology of Brookmeyer and Crowley (1982).

    8. Time-to-escape During Osilodrostat Treatment From Collection of Normal mUFC (≤ ULN) to the First mUFC > 1.3 x ULN - % Event Probability Estimates [week 26 and week 36]

      Escape is defined as the first loss of control of urinary free cortisol (UFC) that meets all of the following criteria: 1. prior normalization of UFC has occurred (median urinary free cortisol (mUFC)≤ upper limit of normal (ULN)); 2. patient reached the highest tolerated dose of osilodrostat; 3. 2 consecutive mUFC (collected at scheduled visits) were above 1.3x ULN; 4. the loss of control of UFC is not related to a dose interruption or dose reduction due to safety reasons; 5. happened beyond Week 26 when the patients have a chance to be treated with doses as high as 30 mg bid. Event probability estimate is the estimated probability that a participant will have an event prior to the specified time point. Event probability estimates are obtained from the Kaplan-Meier survival estimates for all treatment groups; Greenwood formula is used for CI of KM estimates.

      The CushingQoL is a valid and reliable disease-specific QoL questionnaire which assesses health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in patients with Cushing's syndrome and has been validated in patients with Cushing's disease. The CushingQoL consists of questions reflecting dimensions of HRQoL related to physical aspects (e.g. 'I bruise easily'), psychological aspects (e.g. 'I am more irritable, I have sudden mood swings and angry outbursts'), and social aspects (e.g. 'I have had to give up my social or leisure activities due to my illness'). The questionnaire consists of 12 items measured on a five point Likert-type scale assessing how often or how much each item has been related to the patient's Cushing's disease in the previous week. The raw score is calculated by summing the individual item scores prior to being standardized so that the total score ranges from 0 to 100. Increases from baseline are indicative of an improvement.

    26. Change From Baseline in Standardized Psychosocial Issues Score, Using Cushing Disease-specific Quality of Life Patient Reported Outcome (PRO) Assessment [Baseline to Week 12 and 48, Week 12 to Week 36, Week 36 to Week 48.]

    28. Change From Baseline in EQ-5D-5L Utility Index [Baseline to Week 12 and 48, Week 12 to Week 36, Week 36 to Week 48.]

      EQ-5D-5L Utility Index: The EQ-5D-5L questionnaire is a standardized measure of health status developed by the EuroQol Group in order to provide a simple, generic measure of health for clinical and economic appraisal. The EQ-5D-5L measures 5 items on mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, anxiety/depression, measured on 5 levels: no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems, and extreme problems. A utility index can be computed from the EQ 5D-5L descriptive system with utility scores ranging from -0.281 (worst imaginable health state) to 1 (best imaginable health state), with -0.281 representing an "unconscious" health state. A single index value is analyzed for the EQ-5D-5L score. An increase from baseline in the EQ-ED-5L utility index is indicative of an improvement.

    29. Change From Baseline in EQ-5D VAS [Baseline to Week 12 and 48, Week 12 to Week 36, Week 36 to Week 48.]

      The EQ-5D-5L also includes a 20 cm vertical, VAS (visual analogue scale) with a scale of 0-100, with endpoints labeled 100='the best health you can imagine' and 0='the worst health you can imagine'. A single index value is analyzed for the EQ-5D-5L VAS score. An increase from baseline in the EQ-ED-5L VAS is indicative of an improvement.

    30. Change From Baseline in Beck Depression Inventory-II - Total Score Derived [Baseline to Week 12 and 48, Week 12 to Week 36, Week 36 to Week 48.]

      The Beck Depression Inventory II (BDI-II) is a patient reported instrument that consists of 21 items designed to assess the intensity of depression in clinical and normal patients in the preceding two weeks. Each item is a list of four statements arranged in increasing severity about a particular symptom of depression. A global score ranges from 0 to 63 and is calculated with a higher score representing a greater level of depression. The following scoring guidelines for interpretation of BDI-II have been suggested (Smarr, 2011): Minimal range =0-13, Mild depression =14-19, Moderate depression =20-28 and Severe depression = 29-63. A reduction from baseline in BDI-II is indicative of an improvement.

Periodic abstinence (e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods) and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception. B. Female sterilization (have had surgical bilateral oophorectomy with or without hysterectomy) or tubal ligation at least six weeks before taking study drug. In case of bilateral oophorectomy, documentation is required (e.g. operative report, pelvic ultrasound or other reliable imaging method). C. Male sterilization (at least 6 months prior to screening). For female subjects on the study the vasectomized male partner should be the sole partner for that subject.

    D. Combination of any two of the following (a+b or a+c, or b+c):

    Title Change From Baseline in Standardized Health Related Quality of Life Score, Using Cushing Disease-specific Quality of Life Patient Reported Outcome (PRO) Assessment
    Description The CushingQoL is a valid and reliable disease-specific QoL questionnaire which assesses health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in patients with Cushing's syndrome and has been validated in patients with Cushing's disease. The CushingQoL consists of questions reflecting dimensions of HRQoL related to physical aspects (e.g. 'I bruise easily'), psychological aspects (e.g. 'I am more irritable, I have sudden mood swings and angry outbursts'), and social aspects (e.g. 'I have had to give up my social or leisure activities due to my illness'). The questionnaire consists of 12 items measured on a five point Likert-type scale assessing how often or how much each item has been related to the patient's Cushing's disease in the previous week. The raw score is calculated by summing the individual item scores prior to being standardized so that the total score ranges from 0 to 100. Increases from baseline are indicative of an improvement.

    Title Change From Baseline in EQ-5D-5L Utility Index
    Description EQ-5D-5L Utility Index: The EQ-5D-5L questionnaire is a standardized measure of health status developed by the EuroQol Group in order to provide a simple, generic measure of health for clinical and economic appraisal. The EQ-5D-5L measures 5 items on mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, anxiety/depression, measured on 5 levels: no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems, and extreme problems. A utility index can be computed from the EQ 5D-5L descriptive system with utility scores ranging from -0.281 (worst imaginable health state) to 1 (best imaginable health state), with -0.281 representing an "unconscious" health state. A single index value is analyzed for the EQ-5D-5L score. An increase from baseline in the EQ-ED-5L utility index is indicative of an improvement.

    Title Change From Baseline in Beck Depression Inventory-II - Total Score Derived
    Description The Beck Depression Inventory II (BDI-II) is a patient reported instrument that consists of 21 items designed to assess the intensity of depression in clinical and normal patients in the preceding two weeks. Each item is a list of four statements arranged in increasing severity about a particular symptom of depression. A global score ranges from 0 to 63 and is calculated with a higher score representing a greater level of depression. The following scoring guidelines for interpretation of BDI-II have been suggested (Smarr, 2011): Minimal range =0-13, Mild depression =14-19, Moderate depression =20-28 and Severe depression = 29-63. A reduction from baseline in BDI-II is indicative of an improvement.
