Abstract:

Methods and compositions are disclosed for diagnosing a patient suspected of suffering from, and for treating a patient suffering from, a disorder such as hypercortisolemia, metabolic syndrome, pre-diabetes, diabetes, Cushing's syndrome, Cushing's Disease, hyperglycemia secondary to hypercortisolemia, a liver disease, a cardiac disorder, high blood pressure, a blood clotting disorder, a cancer, a psychological disorder, weight gain, a disorder of glucose control, a bone disorder (e.g., osteoporosis), hypogonadism, pseudoacromegaly, pituitary tumors, functional hypercortisolism, ACTH secreting tumors, peripheral neuropathy, dyslipidemia and other disorders. The methods and compositions include administration of a heteroaryl-ketone fused azadecalin glucocorticoid receptor modulator (GRM). The preferred heteroaryl-ketone fused azadecalin GRM is relacorilant ((R)-(1-(4-fluorophenyl)-6-((1-methyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)sulfonyl)-4,4a,5,6,- 7,8-hexahydro-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-g]isoquinolin-4a-yl)(4-(trifluoromethyl)pyri- din-2-yl)methanone). In some cases, the GRM (e.g., relacorilant) is orally administered. In some cases, the GRM (e.g., relacorilant) is orally administered without food.
