Description: CORT Corcept Therapeutics November 03, 2025

Corcept Therapeutics (NASDAQ:CORT) is a U.S.-based biopharma focused on developing and commercializing medicines for severe endocrine-related disorders. Its only FDA-approved product, Korlym (mifepristone), treats hyperglycemia secondary to endogenous Cushing’s syndrome in adults who are ineligible for or have failed surgery. The pipeline spans multiple phases: relacorilant is in Phase III for hypercortisolism and in a separate Phase III trial combined with nab-paclitaxel for platinum-resistant ovarian cancer; early-stage programs target adrenal cancer, prostate cancer, ALS (dazucorilant, Phase II), and metabolic-dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (miricorilant, Phase IIb).

Key quantitative points as of the latest filing: Korlym generated roughly $71 million in net sales in FY 2023, representing about 85 % of total revenue, while cash and short-term investments stood at $210 million, giving the company a runway of over two years at current burn rates. The global Cushing’s syndrome market is estimated at $1.2 billion and is projected to grow ~5 % CAGR, driven by increased diagnostic awareness and limited therapeutic options-an environment that could amplify Korlym’s market share if relacorilant succeeds. Additionally, biotech sector funding remains robust, with Q3 2024 venture capital inflows up 12 % YoY, supporting continued R&D investment for companies like Corcept.
