Phase 2
Active, not recruiting
Conditions
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT05407324
Lead Sponsor
Corcept Therapeutics
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of CORT113176 (dazucorilant) in patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS).

Detailed Description

Eligible ALS patients will be randomized to one of three treatment arms (1:1:1) across North America and Europe for a 24-week double-blind treatment period.

Patients who complete participation (i.e., completed all visits) in the double-blind treatment period will be eligible for participation in a 132-week open-label extension (OLE) study. A daily dose of 300 mg dazucorilant will be used in the 132-week OLE period.

Patients that complete the double-blind treatment period and who do not enter the OLE will enter the 132-week follow-up period.
