Full Title
A Phase 1b, Open-Label Study of Relacorilant in Combination with Pembrolizumab for Patients with Adrenocortical Carcinoma with Excess Glucocorticoid ProductionPurpose
The purpose of this study is to find the highest dose of the drug relacorilant that works best in combination with pembrolizumab immunotherapy in people with inoperable or metastatic adrenocortical cancer that produces too much of the hormone cortisol (Cushing syndrome). Relacorilant may decrease the negative effects of too much cortisol. Both drugs help boost the immune response against cancer.
Relacorilant is taken orally (by mouth) and pembrolizumab is given intravenously (by vein). Their use in this study is considered investigational.
