FDA Approves Neurocrine's Crenessity (crinecerfont) for Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia

• The FDA has approved Crenessity (crinecerfont) as an adjunctive treatment for congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) in adults and children, marking a significant advancement. • Crenessity is the first and only classic CAH treatment that directly reduces excess adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and downstream adrenal androgen production. • Clinical trials demonstrated that Crenessity enables lower glucocorticoid doses while maintaining or improving androgen control in CAH patients. • Neurocrine Biosciences expects Crenessity to be commercially available soon, offering a new treatment option for individuals with classic CAH.
