Clinical Trial Summary

This is a safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic study in 2 cohorts of healthy male participants with an option for an additional cohort. Cohorts 1 and 2 will receive once daily by mouth CORT113176 150 mg and 300 mg, respectively, for 14 days under fed conditions. Progression from Cohort 1 to Cohort 2 will be done based on the safety and tolerability outcome in Cohort 1 and after Cohort 1 has received the study drug for at least 7 days. The optional Cohort 3 may receive a higher dose that will not exceed CORT113176 450 mg once daily by mouth for 14 days under fed conditions. The progression from Cohort 2 to the optional cohort (Cohort 3) will be based on the same precautions as with the progression from Cohort 1 to Cohort 2. Each participant will undergo safety evaluations. Pharmacokinetics of CORT113176 will be assessed in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples. Pharmacodynamic assessments will include the measurement of serum cortisol.
