Crenessity has positive effects in patients with CAH at 2 years

CHICAGO — At 2 years, crinecerfont demonstrated favorable effects on weight, body composition and insulin resistance in adults with classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia, researchers reported at ENDO 2026.
In addition, crinecerfont (Crenessity, Neurocrine Biosciences) was associated with stable or improved bone age progression in children and adolescents with classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH), according to results from another ENDO 2026 presentation.

Hormone therapy use may protect against low bone mineral density

Garetosmab may benefit patients with rare bone disease

CHICAGO — Garetosmab reduced new heterotopic bone lesions in patients with fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva at 56 weeks compared with placebo, according to results of the OPTIMA trial presented at ENDO 2026.
“[Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva] is an ultrarare disorder that affects about one in 1 million of the population,” Richard Keen, MD, PhD, director of the Centre for Metabolic Bone Disease, Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital NHS Trust in London, said during a presentation. “It’s caused by a dominant heterozygous gain-of-function mutation in ACVR1, which results in the formation
