Participants received pasireotide 600 micrograms (μg) twice daily (BID) subcutaneously (SC) to achieve or maintain urinary free cortisol (UFC) normalization. If UFC levels were increased at any time, participants received 900 μg BID SC, until no safety or tolerability concerns were observed as per investigators assessment. If the participant was unable to tolerate the 900 μg BID, dosing of 600 μg three times a day was given.

Pasireotide 600 μg or 900 μg was administered as an SC injection.

Cushing's disease is a rare serious condition that is caused by an adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) secreting pituitary adenoma. This study assessed the long-term safety and efficacy of pasireotide in participants with Cushing's disease.

Extension Study to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of Pasireotide in Participants With Cushing's Disease

Extension to a Multicenter, Open-label Study to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of 600 μg SOM230, Administered Subcutaneously, Bid in Patients With Cushing's Disease

A participant was considered a responder if the mean UFC from the two 24-hour urine samples collected at Month 6 was within normal limits. The normal range for UFC is 55 to 276 nmol/day.

24-hour urine samples were collected to obtain mean UFC measurements. A negative mean change from baseline indicates improvement.

An AE was any undesirable sign, symptom or medical condition occurring after starting study drug even if the event is not considered to be related to study drug. AEs were assessed according to incident dose group: Pasireotide 1200 μg sc total daily dose (TDD), Pasireotide 1800 μg SC TDD and Pasireotide SC Any Dose. The incident dose for an AE was the last total daily dose administered on or prior to the AE onset date.

Blood samples were withdrawn to obtain the serum cortisol levels. A negative change from baseline indicates improvement.

Participants with Cushing's disease were considered responders if mean UFC levels from the 24-hour urine collections at Day 15 (Core study) and at extension Month 6, were within normal limits. Ctrough levels of pasireotide were measured at Day 15 of Core study and Month 6.

Blood samples were withdrawn to obtain the ACTH levels. A negative change from baseline indicates improvement.

Safety Population included participants from ITT Population. ITT Population included participants who completed 15 days of treatment in the Core study, experienced significant clinical benefit without any unacceptable AEs, and received at least 1 dose in the extension period.

Participants received pasireotide 600 μg BID SC, to achieve or maintain UFC normalization.

Pasireotide 600 μg BID SC

Participants received 900 μg BID SC if UFC levels were increased at any time, until no safety or tolerability concerns were observed as per investigators assessment. If the participant was unable to tolerate the 900 μg BID, dosing of 600 μg three times a day was given.

Pasireotide 900 μg BID SC

Participants received pasireotide 600 μg BID SC to achieve or maintain UFC normalization. If UFC levels were increased at any time, participants received 900 μg BID SC, until no safety or tolerability concerns were observed as per investigators assessment. If the participant was unable to tolerate the 900 μg BID, dosing of 600 μg three times a day was given.

The objective of the study is to determine the relative contributions of four established predictors of hyperandrogenism (luteinizing hormone \[LH\] secretion, ovarian response to recombinant human chorionic gonadotropin \[r-hCG\] administration, adrenal response to adrenocorticotropic hormone \[ACTH\] administration, and hyperinsulinemia) in older vs. young women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) in a cross-sectional, physiological study. The investigators hypothesize that hyperinsulinemia is a stronger independent predictor of free testosterone (T) in older reproductive aged (vs. young) women with PCOS.

PCOS is a highly prevalent reproductive disorder characterized by hyperandrogenism (HA) and oligo/anovulation. PCOS is also associated with metabolic syndrome, obesity and insulin resistance. In young women with PCOS, several factors contribute to HA: a) excess LH secretion, b) abnormal ovarian steroidogenesis, c) abnormal adrenal steroidogenesis, and d) hyperinsulinemia/ insulin resistance. Of interest, HA (and menstrual function) improves with age in PCOS. However, the relative contributions of the aforementioned HA-related factors in young adult vs. late reproductive-aged women with PCOS are not known. Identifying the most important predictor(s) of HA in older women with PCOS will be critically important for devising the most relevant therapeutic strategies for older women with PCOS. The investigators propose to determine the relative contributions of four established predictors of HA (LH secretion, ovarian response to r-hCG administration, adrenal response to ACTH administration, and hyperinsulinemia) in older vs. young women with PCOS in a physiological study. The investigators hypothesize that hyperinsulinemia is a stronger independent predictor of free testosterone (T) in older reproductive aged (vs. young) women with PCOS. In addition, the investigators hypothesize that, in older vs. young women with PCOS: a) ovarian response to r-hCG will be a weaker independent predictor of free T; b) mean LH will be a stronger independent predictor of free T; and c) the predictive ability of adrenal response to ACTH will be similar. This will be a cross-sectional physiological study. Ordinary Least Square (OLS) regression will be utilized to determine the relative contributions of 4 established predictors of HA in older vs. young women with PCOS. Statistical plans include intra-age group hypothesis testing, inter-age group hypothesis testing, and a ranking of the importance of predictors in each age group.

This is a cross-sectional physiological observational study.

This is a study regarding PCOS, so only females will be eligible.
