How it works

Osilodrostat is a cortisol synthesis inhibitor. It inhibits 11beta-hydroxylase (CYP11B1), the enzyme responsible for the final step of cortisol biosynthesis in the adrenal gland. In a Chinese hamster lung cell line V79-4 that overexpresses human CYP11B1, adrenodoxin and adrenodoxin reductase, osilodrostat inhibited the activity of human CYP11B1 dose-dependently with IC50 values of 2.5 ± 0.1 nM (n = 4).

Dosing overview

Correct hypokalemia and hypomagnesemia, and obtain baseline electrocardiogram prior to starting ISTURISA. Initiate dosage at 2 mg orally twice daily, with or without food. Titrate dosage by 1 mg to 2 mg twice daily, no more frequently than every 2 weeks based on rate of cortisol changes, individual tolerability and improvement in signs and symptoms. Maximum recommended dosage is 30 mg twice daily. See Full Prescribing Information for complete titration, laboratory, and dosage modification recommendations. Patients with Hepatic Impairment: Child-Pugh B: Recommended starting dose is 1 mg twice daily. Child-Pugh C: Recommended starting dose is 1 mg once daily in the evening

After interruption or discontinuation of ISTURISA, cortisol suppression may persist and patients should be regularly monitored. QTc Prolongation: Perform electrocardiogram in all patients Use with caution in patients with risk factors for QTc prolongation. Elevations in Adrenal Hormone Precursors and Androgens: Monitor for hypokalemia, worsening of hypertension, edema, and hirsutism

CYP3A4 Inhibitor: Reduce the dose of ISTURISA by half with concomitant use of a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor. CYP3A4 and CYP2B6 Inducers: An increase of ISTURISA dosage may be needed if ISTURISA is used concomitantly with strong CYP3A4 and CYP2B6 inducers. A reduction in ISTURISA dosage may be needed if strong CYP3A4 and CYP2B6 inducers are discontinued while using ISTURISA
