Arms & Interventions
Pasireotide 600 ug
At randomization, participants received 600 ug subcutaneously (sc) twice daily (bid). Participants continued at this dose until month 6 if their month 3 mean urinary free cortisol (mUFC) was \<= 2 x the upper limit of normal (ULN) and the mUFC was below or equal to their baseline mUFC. Participants not meeting the mUFC criteria at month 3 were unblinded and required to increase their dose to 900ug bid on an open label basis. Participants had the option to continue in the extension phase as long as they did not meet any discontinuation criteria or until pasireotide was available commercially in their country.
Intervention: Pasireotide
Pasireotide 900 ug
At randomization, participants received 900 ug subcutaneously (sc) twice daily (bid). Participants continued at this dose until month 6 if their month 3 mean urinary free cortisol (mUFC) was \<= 2 x the upper limit of normal (ULN) and the mUFC was below or equal to their baseline mUFC. Participants not meeting the mUFC criteria at month 3 were unblinded and required to increase their dose to 1200 ug bid on an open label basis. Participants had the option to continue in the extension phase as long as they did not meet any discontinuation criteria or until pasireotide was available commercially in their country.
Intervention: Pasireotide
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Number of mUFC (Urinary Free Cortisol) Responders by Randomized Dose Group
Time Frame: 6 months
A responder in the primary efficacy analysis was a patient with a mUFC≤ULN at Month 6 and whose dose was not increased prior to Month 6.
