A Phase 1, Open-Label, Single-Sequence Crossover Study in Healthy Subjects to Determine the Effect of Relacorilant on Exposure to Probe Substrates for Cytochrome P450s 3A4, 2C8, 2C9, 2C19, and 2D6

This is an open-label, single-sequence, 3-period crossover study conducted in healthy
subjects. Eligible subjects will participate in a single treatment period, in which they will
receive the following treatments: Day 1, single doses of midazolam and metoprolol; Day 2,
single doses of pioglitazone, tolbutamide, and omeprazole; Days 5 to 17, daily doses of
relacorilant; Day 14, single doses of midazolam and metoprolol (with relacorilant); and, Day
15, single doses of pioglitazone, tolbutamide, and omeprazole (with relacorilant).

This is an open-label, single-sequence, 3-period crossover study conducted in healthy
subjects. Subjects will be screened for eligibility for the study within 21 days before the
first dose of study drug based on entrance criteria specified in Section 4. Eligible subjects
will participate in a single treatment period, in which they will receive the following
treatments:

- Day 1: single doses of midazolam and metoprolol

- Day 2: single doses of pioglitazone, tolbutamide, and omeprazole

- Days 5 to 17: daily doses of relacorilant

- Day 14: single doses of midazolam and metoprolol (with relacorilant)

- Day 15: single doses of pioglitazone, tolbutamide, and omeprazole (with relacorilant)
Blood samples will be collected before dosing and at intervals up to 24 hours after each
midazolam dose, up to 48 hours after each metoprolol, tolbutamide, and omeprazole dose,
and up to 72 hours after each pioglitazone dose for assay of the respective probe
substrates and relevant metabolites. Additional samples will be collected during the
relacorilant dosing period for assay of relacorilant and metabolites to confirm exposure
and at the beginning (before dosing on Day 5) and near the end (Day 14) of the
relacorilant dosing period for assay for 4β-OH cholesterol, a biomarker for CYP
induction.

Safety and tolerability will be monitored using AEs, clinical laboratory evaluations, 12-lead
ECG recordings, vital sign and pulse oximetry measurements, and physical examinations.

Subjects will be admitted to the Clinical Research Unit (CRU) on the morning of Day −1
following an 8-hour fast for baseline assessments and will remain confined until completion
of procedures, 72 hours after the last dose of probe substrate and 24 hours after the last
dose of relacorilant. Subjects may leave the CRU after safety review on the morning of Day
18. Each subject will have a follow-up (FU) visit 14 ± 2 days after the last dose of study
drug.

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Able to understand the purpose and risks of the study; willing and able to adhere to
scheduled visits, treatment plans, laboratory tests, and other study evaluations and
procedures.

2. Give written informed consent.

3. Be males or nonpregnant, nonlactating females judged to be in good health, based on
the results of medical history, physical examination, vital signs, 12-lead ECG, and
clinical laboratory findings.

4. Have a body mass index (BMI) between 18 and 32 kg/m2, inclusive, and a body weight
more than 50 kg (110 pounds).

5. Be a nonsmoker. Use of nicotine or nicotine-containing products must be discontinued
at least 90 days prior to the first dose of study drug.

6. Be willing to comply with study restrictions

7. Have suitable veins for multiple venipuncture/cannulation.

8. Female subjects must be either of nonchildbearing potential (ie, postmenopausal or
permanently sterilized) or use highly effective contraception with low
user-dependency.

- The only acceptable method of highly effective contraception with low
user-dependency is an intrauterine device (IUD). Use of hormonal contraception
(by any route, including intrauterine hormone releasing systems) or hormone
replacement therapy is NOT acceptable.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Be an employee or immediate family member of the Clinical Research Unit or Corcept.

2. Have been previously enrolled in any study of relacorilant.

3. Have multiple drug allergies, or be allergic to any of the components of relacorilant.

4. Have a condition that could be aggravated by glucocorticoid blockade (eg, asthma, any
chronic inflammatory condition).

5. Have a history of gastric bypass surgery.

6. Have a history of malabsorption syndrome or previous gastrointestinal surgery, with
the exception of appendectomy and cholecystectomy, which could affect drug absorption
or metabolism.

7. Current alcohol or substance abuse.

8. In the 2 calendar months before first study drug administration, have donated/lost
blood or plasma in excess of 400 mL.

9. In the 30 days before first study drug administration, have participated in another
clinical trial of a new chemical entity or a prescription medicine.

10. Have a positive test for alcohol or drugs of abuse at screening or first admission.

11. Have a positive test for exogenous glucocorticoids at screening.

12. Have clinically relevant abnormal findings on vital signs, physical examination,
laboratory screening tests, or 12-lead ECG, at screening and/or before first study
drug administration, including but not limited to**:

1. QT interval corrected for heart rate (QTc) using Fridericia's equation (QTcF)
>450 ms (from mean of 3 supine ECGs, performed at least 2 minutes apart)

2. Stage 2 or higher hypertension (supine/semi-recumbent systolic blood pressure
[SBP] >160 mmHg, diastolic blood pressure [DBP] >100 mmHg; based on mean of
duplicate values recorded at least 2 minutes apart)

3. Stage 1 hypertension (supine/semi-recumbent SBP 140-160 mmHg, DBP 90-100 mmHg;
based on mean of duplicate values recorded at least 2 minutes apart) associated
with indication for treatment ie, evidence of end-organ damage, diabetes, or a
10-year cardiovascular risk, estimated using a standard calculator, (eg,
QRISK2-2016) greater than 20%

4. Glomerular filtration rate, estimated using the chronic kidney disease
epidemiology (collaboration) (CKD-EPI) method (eGFR; Levey 2009) <60
mL/minute/1.73 m2

5. Hypokalemia (potassium below lower limit of normal)

6. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate amino transferase (AST), and/or gamma-
glutamyltransferase (GGT) >1.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN)

7. Seropositive for hepatitis B, hepatitis C, or human immunodeficiency (HIV)
viruses **For purposes of qualifying any given subject for study participation,
out-of-range values may be repeated once.

13. Have any medical or social reasons for not participating in the study raised by their
primary care physician.

the chance of obtaining satisfactory data, as assessed by the Investigator.

enzymes involved in drug-drug-interactions, hormonal contraception or hormone
replacement therapy.
