Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
* To test the hypothesis that GR blockade with mifepristone will decrease the severity of metabolic syndrome features as measured by waist circumference, lipid profile, body mass index, blood pressure and insulin resistance, measured by HOMA-IR score.
* To test the hypothesis that GR blockade with mifepristone will improve QoL, depression and anxiety scores, measured by validated assessments, in patients with mild hypercortisolism.
