SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 8 weeks

Adrenal insufficiency as measured by a standard cortisol stimulation test (using 0.25 mg cosyntropin IV and baseline and 60 minute post-injection serum cortisol measurements) after treatment. A rise in serum cortisol concentration after to a peak of ≥18 mcg/dL was considered normal; a smaller rise than this was considered adrenal insufficiency.
