$CORT Q2 to Gemini AI continues ..... Safety vs. Efficacy Perspectives Interestingly, relacorilant is generally considered to have a cleaner safety profile than Recorlev: Recorlev carries a boxed warning for hepatotoxicity (liver injury) and can cause QT prolongation. Relacorilant was designed to avoid these specific side effects (it does not cause the "off-target" effects of ketoconazole). Despite the better safety profile, the FDA prioritized the certainty of efficacy. They essentially "blocked" relacorilant on the grounds that its effectiveness wasn't robust enough to justify a new drug on the market, whereas they approved Recorlev despite its known toxicities because its efficacy was undeniable.

$CORT Q2 to Gemini AI: Q2: Is FDA much more strict to relacorilant than recorlev in their perspective NDA and approval or CRL? AI: Based on recent regulatory events, the FDA’s stance on relacorilant (Corcept Therapeutics) has indeed been more restrictive compared to its treatment of Recorlev (Xeris Biopharma). The FDA's Burden of Proof : For Recorlev: The FDA accepted the efficacy data from 166 patients across two trials as sufficient to establish a clear benefit. For Relacorilant: The FDA’s CRL came as a surprise to many because the GRACE trial was technically a success. However, the agency expressed concerns that the data—particularly from the confirmatory GRADIENT trial—did not provide enough evidence to outweigh the risks. This suggests a higher threshold or a lack of conviction in the "clinical meaningfulness" of relacorilant’s blood pressure and glucose improvements compared to Recorlev’s cortisol-lowering consistency.

$CORT I asked Gemini AI 2 questions: Q1: What's the chance to get the FDA nod on relacorilant for Cushing's syndrome after the FDA meeting to address the issues in CRL? AI: Getting a "nod" from the FDA for relacorilant in Cushing’s syndrome following the recent Complete Response Letter (CRL) is currently facing significant uphill challenges. The "Stumbling Blocks" in the CRL: The FDA’s concerns are not merely administrative; they go to the heart of the drug's safety and effectiveness. The primary issues identified include: - Questionable Effectiveness: - Liver Safety (DILI): - Pre-submission Warnings: Probability of Approval: Scenario Likelihood Timeline Additional Data Analysis Low 12-18 month New Phase 3 Trial High 2 years

$CORT Okay, to make the naysayers happy, let's forget about Relacorilant for Cushing. - Cushing syndrome is much more prevalent than reported, diagnosed cases (more than 2x prevalence from P4 clinical trials), which can support the rapid growth of both Korlym and Recorlev. - Teva patent case is going to be ruled in Corcept's favor by the federal court any day now. - Korlym's growing sales of $650M in 2024 & $800M-$850M in 2025 (Est.), which should support a SP of $50 alone. - Relacorilant+nab-paclitaxel for PROC: P1/P2/P3 trial tested effective and tolerable; PDUFA=7/11/2026 and nobody on earth is expecting a CRL => Support adding another $50 to SP in 2027. - Dazucorilant for ALS: Will rerun P2 then P3 trials; Looks very promising in ALS survival rate from the last P2 trial => Support adding another $100 to SP in 2028. - Miricorilant for NASH/MASH: 2029 and beyond. Again, the above analysis excludes Relacorilant for Cushing, but I believe it will find a way to eventually get a nod from FDA.

$CORT I think CORT / TEVA litigation will turn out to be a mixed result and CORT stock will go up post-derisking. The judge involved hasn't been pro or anti-pharmaceutical industry in the past and has applied rigorous legal approach to past judgements, on case by case basis. I think Corcept's enforcement of method of use patents on TEVA was OK given the tricky dosing of korlym, but maybe went too far, and so this ruling will be neither pro-TEVA or pro-Corcept but somewhere in the middle. Once this derisking is out of the way, the market can focus on PROC PDUFA which has a peak sales of $2B+ and so at 3x peak sales multiple could make this company worth $6B just on its own, let alone the hundreds of millions coming in from korlym sales...

$CORT two important details youre leaving out. First, Recorlev had all patients liver enzymes fully reversed back to normal range with discontinuation while relacorilant had a patient with 50x(!!) ULN and was not reversed even with drug discontinuation per the CRL meaning the drug destroyed that patients liver permanently. $XERS

$CORT For people who like to hear about and can handle the truth. Apple-to-apple comparison of reported liver injury during their perspective clinical trials (All from Gemini 3 AI): Recorlev (SONICS & LOGICS trials) Peak ALT/AST > 3x ULN - 13% to 15% of patients Peak ALT/AST > 5x ULN - 3% of patients Relacorilant (GRACE & GRADIENT trials) Peak ALT/AST > 3x ULN - 11% of patients Peak ALT/AST > 5x ULN - 4% of patients Trial cohorts sizes Recorlev: SONICS ~ 94, LOGICS ~ 79 (44 randomized) Relacorilant: GRADIENT ~ 137, GRACE ~ 152 (68 randomized) I encourage you to check these #'s using your preferred AI's. Note: ULN = "Upper Limit of Normal"

$XERS $CORT Pretty cool story. Seems Strongbridge(Merged with Xeris) followed a similar path with Ketoconazole by purifying it into the levo enantiomer and getting it approved for Cushings syndrome for a relatively low cost. It is important when investing to not only worry about a rising stock price but also the people who's lives have been drastically changed by these medications. The work Corcept and now Xeris is doing to change how these patients are identified allows more people to find a path to having a life they actually want to be alive for. The focus here should be on posting facts instead of attacking each other with outright falsehoods or half-truths. https://kffhealthnews.org/news/how-a-drugmaker-turned-the-abortion-pill-into-a-rare-disease-profit-machine/#:~:text=When%20the%20Food%20and%20Drug,1%2C000%20patients%20in%20the%20U.S.)

$XERS $CORT At the end of the day, the main goal should be access and options for patients needing medicine for these awful conditions. Corcept did a disservice to both themselves and patients by not heeding the FDA's warnings. Patients currently have 3 options and one of them has a generic which is great to help reduce costs over time. This market still has a lot of room to grow as more patients are identified. I could care less about CORT's stock price or their revenue as I am not an investor. It does look like it could 10x from here in 10 years just like XERS will most likely do as well in 5 to 10 years. Maybe split your investment across these 2 if you are worried one way or the other.

$XERS $CORT Recorlev's upside is substantial, to say the least, because it is a direct cortisol-lowering treatment and therefore a primary therapy, addressing approximately 75–80% of the patient population. The growth potential there is significant. Korlym, by contrast, is a secondary treatment, addressing roughly 20–25% of patients, primarily those who cannot tolerate direct cortisol-lowering therapies due to issues such as liver toxicity or other contraindications. In other words, Recorlev addresses the majority of the treatable Cushing's patient population (roughly ~75–80%), as it directly lowers cortisol and fits first-line treatment paradigms, while Korlym is more naturally positioned for a smaller subset (~25–30%) of patients who cannot tolerate or do not respond to direct cortisol-lowering therapies. And they are not even in competition with each other, the 20-25% that can not tolerate Recorlev/Direct cortisol-lowering, will go naturally to Korlym/etc. Simple equation.

$XERS $CORT (Gemini) ​2. Why Korlym is Holding Steady ​The expected "threat" from Recorlev has been mitigated by a few key factors: ​Different Mechanisms of Action: Korlym is a cortisol receptor blocker (it stops the hormone from working), while Recorlev is a steroidogenesis inhibitor (it stops the body from making cortisol). Doctors often view them as complementary or for different patient profiles rather than direct "either/or" substitutes. ​Market Expansion: Increased awareness and better diagnostic tools are identifying more Cushing’s patients than ever before. This "rising tide" is lifting both boats. ​Generic Buffer: Corcept’s launch of its own authorized generic of Korlym has helped it retain budget-conscious patients who might have otherwise switched to newer or different therapies.
