The FDA has approved osilodrostat (Isturisa –
Recordati), a cortisol synthesis inhibitor, for oral
treatment of adults with Cushing's disease when
surgical resection of the pituitary adenoma is not an
option or has not been curative. Osilodrostat is the

inhibitors such as ketoconazole and metyrapone have
been used off-label for this indication for many years.
