Financial Results

"In 2025, our Cushing’s syndrome business experienced a surge in demand due to growing recognition among physicians of hypercortisolism’s true prevalence and the necessity of appropriate treatment. We had a record number of new prescriptions written for our medications and a record number of new prescribers in 2025, which translated to a 37 percent increase in the number of tablets sold compared to the prior year. We should have achieved higher growth but were not able to fully meet demand because of capacity constraints at our previous specialty pharmacy vendor. There were also operational disruptions in the fourth quarter as we transitioned our business to our new specialty pharmacy. This transition is now fully complete and February is on track to be a record month for the number of new patients that have started treatment with our medications. We expect that our Cushing’s syndrome business will expand for many years," said Joseph K. Belanoff, M.D., Corcept’s Chief Executive Officer.

Corcept’s fourth quarter 2025 revenue was $202.1 million, compared to $181.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. Revenue for the full year was $761.4 million, compared to $675.0 million in 2024.

Net income was $24.3 million in the fourth quarter, or $0.20 diluted net income per common share, compared to net income of $30.7 million, or $0.26 diluted net income per common share, in the fourth quarter of 2024. For the full year, net income was $99.7 million, or $0.82 diluted net income per common share, compared to net income of $141.2 million, or $1.23 diluted net income per common share, in 2024.

Cash and investments were $532.4 million at December 31, 2025, compared to $603.2 million at December 31, 2024. In 2025, Corcept paid $245.9 million to purchase its common stock, pursuant to the company’s stock repurchase program, net exercise of employee stock options and net vesting of restricted stock grants.

Clinical Development

"We are engaged with the FDA to determine the best path forward for our New Drug Application (NDA) for relacorilant in Cushing’s syndrome and are confident that the ultimate outcome will be approval," said Dr. Belanoff. "Our NDA for relacorilant in platinum-resistant ovarian cancer, which is now bolstered by the final overall survival results from our ROSELLA study, has a Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) date of July 11, 2026.

In addition, our ongoing clinical studies will soon produce important data. Results from MOMENTUM, our trial evaluating the prevalence of hypercortisolism in patients with resistant hypertension, will be featured in an oral presentation at the American College of Cardiology (ACC) meeting in March. Results from our BELLA trial in patients with advanced ovarian cancer will be available by the end of this year, as will results from MONARCH, our Phase 2b trial in patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH). By the end of next year, we expect results from our studies in platinum-sensitive ovarian, endometrial, cervical and pancreatic cancers."

"We are also planning to start a Phase 3 trial of dazucorilant in patients with ALS, which will seek to replicate the benefit patients exhibited in our DAZALS trial, by the middle of this year," added Dr. Belanoff.

Hypercortisolism (Cushing’s Syndrome)

New Drug Application – Engaged with FDA to determine best path forward to approval following Complete Response Letter for relacorilant in patients with Cushing’s syndrome
GRACE – Pivotal Phase 3 trial of relacorilant in 152 patients with Cushing’s syndrome – Results published in The Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology (Pivonello et al, February 2026)
MOMENTUM – Enrollment completed in 1,000-patient trial examining the prevalence of hypercortisolism in patients with resistant hypertension; results will be presented at ACC meeting in March
"Relacorilant has the potential to become the new standard of care for patients with Cushing’s syndrome. In its Phase 2 and Phase 3 studies, patients treated with relacorilant showed clinically meaningful and statistically significant improvements in hypertension and a wide range of Cushing’s syndrome’s other signs and symptoms. Importantly, these benefits were observed without off-target effects and toxicities such as drug-induced hypokalemia, endometrial hypertrophy, vaginal bleeding, adrenal insufficiency and QT prolongation. These adverse events can have serious health consequences and are associated with currently available treatments. We are working with the FDA to bring relacorilant to patients as soon as possible," said Bill Guyer, PharmD, Corcept’s Chief Development Officer.

Oncology

Relacorilant in Combination with Chemotherapy

New Drug Application – FDA reviewing NDA for relacorilant plus nab-paclitaxel to treat patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer, with a July 11, 2026 PDUFA date
Marketing Authorization Application (MAA) – European Medicines Agency reviewing MAA for relacorilant plus nab-paclitaxel to treat patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer – Approval expected by the end of this year
ROSELLA – Both dual primary endpoints (progression-free and overall survival) met, without the need for biomarker selection and without increased safety burden – Complete results will be presented at the Society of Gynecology Oncology (SGO) meeting in April
BELLA Part A – Enrollment completed in Phase 2 trial of relacorilant plus nab-paclitaxel and bevacizumab in 95 patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer – Results expected by the end of this year
BELLA Part B – Enrollment underway in Phase 2 trial of relacorilant plus nab-paclitaxel and bevacizumab in 90 patients with platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer whose disease progressed while on a PARP inhibitor
BELLA Part C – Enrollment underway in Phase 2 trial of relacorilant plus nab-paclitaxel in 90 patients with endometrial cancer (who have received one or two prior lines of therapy)
STELLA – Phase 2 trial of relacorilant plus nab-paclitaxel in 50 patients with cervical cancer (received one or two prior lines of therapy) to begin in coming weeks, conducted in collaboration with ARCAGY-GINECO, an academic clinical research group specializing in gynecologic cancers
TRIDENT – Enrollment underway in Phase 2 trial of relacorilant plus nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine as first-line therapy in 50 patients with pancreatic cancer
Relacorilant in Combination with Androgen Deprivation Therapy

Nenocorilant in Combination with Immunotherapy

SYNERGY – Enrollment underway in Phase 1b dose-finding trial of nenocorilant plus nivolumab in 30 patients with a variety of solid tumors
"Results from our pivotal Phase 3 ROSELLA study demonstrate a 35 percent reduction in the risk of death in patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer (PROC). These results – without the need for biomarker selection, without increased safety burden and with oral administration – highlight relacorilant’s potential to become the new standard of care in PROC. Our applications are under review with regulatory authorities in both the United States and Europe, and we are working with urgency to bring this medication to patients with this highly challenging form of ovarian cancer," said Dr. Guyer.

"Our ROSELLA results, as well as other pre-clinical and clinical oncology data, highlight the potential of glucocorticoid receptor antagonism to benefit patients across a wide variety of solid tumor types beyond PROC. We are currently studying relacorilant in other solid tumors, including platinum-sensitive ovarian, endometrial, cervical, pancreatic and prostate cancers, and we will continue to broaden our research to help as many patients as possible," added Dr. Guyer.

Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatohepatitis (MASH)

MONARCH – Enrollment completed in randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, Phase 2b trial of miricorilant in 175 patients with biopsy-confirmed or presumed MASH – Results expected by the end of this year
"In our Phase 1b study, miricorilant was well-tolerated and very rapidly reduced liver fat while improving fibrosis, liver enzymes and other markers of liver health, as well as key metabolic and lipid measures. We look forward to building on these promising findings in our Phase 2b MONARCH study, with results expected by the end of this year," said Dr. Guyer.

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)

DAZALS – Exploratory analyses showed that patients who received dazucorilant 300 mg exhibited an 84 percent reduction in risk of death during the study’s first year compared to patients who received placebo (hazard ratio: 0.16, p-value: 0.0009)
Phase 3 trial – Planned to begin by the middle of this year
"Elevated cortisol activity is linked to ALS. In our Phase 2 DAZALS study, patients who received dazucorilant experienced a profound reduction in early mortality – a period when many patients with ALS retain significant function and quality of life," said Dr. Guyer. "We are currently conducting a dose titration study, with the goal of improving gastrointestinal tolerability, to inform the direction of our Phase 3 program."
