Who could take part
eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria: 1. Have a confirmed diagnosis of endogenous hypercortisolemia caused by ACTH dependent or ACTH independent etiologies including: * Cushing's Disease that (more than one may apply) * has recurred after primary pituitary surgery * has persisted despite pituitary surgery (failed pituitary surgery) * has been treated with radiation therapy to the pituitary * is not treatable with surgery * exists in subjects who are not candidates for or who refuse surgery * Ectopic ACTH * Ectopic CRF secretion * Adrenal adenoma * Adrenal carcinoma * Adrenal autonomy 2. Have documented biochemical evidence of endogenous hypercortisolemia which includes elevated urinary free cortisol. 3. Require medical treatment of hypercortisolemia. Exclusion Criteria: Individuals not eligible to be enrolled into the study are those who: * Have de novo Cushing's disease and are surgical candidates for pituitary surgery. * Have an acute or unstable medical problem, which could be aggravated by mifepristone treatment. * Taking medications within 14 days of the baseline visit (Day 1) that a) have a large first pass metabolism largely mediated by CYP3A4 and a narrow therapeutic margin and/or b) are strong CYP3A4 inhibitors. * Female patients of reproductive potential, who are pregnant or who are unable or unwilling to use medically acceptable, non-hormonal methods of contraception during the study. * Have received investigational treatment (drug, biological agent or device) within 30 days of Screening * Have a history of an allergic reaction or intolerance to CORLUX (mifepristone) * Have a non-endogenous source of hypercortisolemia such as factious hypercortisolemia (exogenous source of glucocorticoid, iatrogenic Cushing's syndrome), factious or therapeutic use of ACTH * Have Pseudo-Cushing's syndrome. * Postmenopausal women with an intact uterus who have experienced unexplained vaginal bleeding within 12 months of Screening are excluded.
