Hello Mary & dear Cushies!! I’ve just discovered this article two months ago and I was very pleased to speak directly to Dr. Gerardo Burton. He and his team developed a drug (21OH-6OP) which is a SPECIFIC antagonist for cortisol receptors, unlikely mifepristone which inhibits cortisol AND progesterone with so many undesired adverse effects. Unfortunately the pharmaceutical company didn’t choose this drug to start the clinical trials and so it is resting in Dr. Burton’s lab.... since 2007. The great humanity in Dr. Burton drop tears into my eyes when he told me that he would like that his whole work could help at least somebody to improve their quality of life. As a Cushing’s disease survivor ten years ago ... and now with a relapse of Cushing’s syndrome I keep wondering how is it possible that Dr. Burton’s work remains unknown, wasted, buried and in oblivion. For any of us either with Cushing’s Disease or Syndrome this drug is like the light at the end of the tunnel... I wish I could explain all this as clearly as I intended... and the reason why I post this topic is because I promised Dr. Burton I would try to help him to make his work known specially for all of us... and if somebody can help with a FDA contact and make this story known to them... that would be of so much help!!! Thank to all of you for reading this, my best wishes for all... stay safe this pandemic Regards from Querétaro, México Mayela https://www.intramed.net/contenidover.asp?contenidoid=48298
