| Osilodrostat |
Osilodrostat is a cortisol synthesis inhibitor. It potently inhibits 11β-hydroxylase (CYP11B1), the enzyme responsible for the final step of cortisol biosynthesis in the adrenal gland. In Cushing’s disease, the fall in plasma cortisol concentration also stimulates ACTH secretion, via the feedback mechanism which accelerates steroid biosynthesis. |
