What therapeutic areas could benefit from treatment with cortisol modulators?
As a leader in more than 30 ongoing studies of cortisol modulation, we’re working to develop transformative new therapies across a wide range of disease areas, including endocrinology, oncology, metabolism and neurology.
Endocrinology
Hypercortisolism (Cushing syndrome)
Hypercortisolism, also known as Cushing syndrome, is a serious medical condition that occurs when there is an excess of cortisol activity in the body.
Oncology
Ovarian Cancer
Ovarian cancer is a growth of cells that forms in the ovaries. The cells multiply quickly and can invade and destroy healthy body tissue.
Metabolism
Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis/Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatohepatitis (NASH/MASH)
NASH/MASH is a severe liver disease that can lead to cirrhosis and other serious health complications.
Neurology
ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis)
ALS is a progressive and fatal neurologic disorder that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord, causing loss of muscle control.
