Pharmaceutical formulations containing relacorilant, a heteroaryl-ketone fused azadecalin compound
Disclosed herein are novel formulations containing relacorilant ((R)-(1-(4-fluorophenyl)-6-(1-methyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)sulfonyl)-4,4a,5,6,7,8-hexahydro-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-g]isoquinolin-4a-yl)(4-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl)methanone) that are suitable for administration, including oral administration, to patients suffering from disorders amenable to treatment by glucocorticoid receptor modulators (GRMs). Single unit dosage forms comprise softgel capsules containing these formulations. Such softgel capsules may contain, e.g., relacorilant formulations containing 25 milligrams (mg), 50 mg, 100 mg, 200 mg, 300 mg, 400 mg, 500 mg, or other amounts of relacorilant. These novel formulations and single unit dosage forms may be used to treat diseases and disorders including Cushing's syndrome, Cushing's Disease, and other disorders.
