Inclusion criteria

  • {"criterion_text":"-1. Participants with CAH who have completed a Crinetics CRN04894 study or completed treatment in a Crinetics CRN04894 study, and in the opinion of the Investigator had an acceptable benefit-risk assessment in the completed study and would benefit from continued dosing in this extension study: a. Group 1: Participants meeting the above criteria and are currently receiving CRN04894. b. Group 2: Participants meeting the above criteria and are not currently receiving CRN04894. Note: The maximum dose of CRN04894 in this study is not to exceed the maximum dose in a parent study for the indication."}
  • {"criterion_text":"-2. Participants must be compliant, in the opinion of the Investigator, with a stable regimen of glucocorticoid replacement (eg, hydrocortisone, prednisolone, prednisone, methylprednisolone), and a minimum total daily dose of ≥XX mg hydrocortisone (HC) or equivalent at the time of Informed Consent."}
  • {"criterion_text":"-3. Female participants who engage in heterosexual intercourse must: a. Be of nonchildbearing potential, defined as either surgically sterile (ie, hysterectomy, bilateral salpingectomy, tubal ligation for at least 3 months, or bilateral oophorectomy), OR b. Be postmenopausal with at least 1 year of amenorrhea. In participants with less than 1 year of amenorrhea, confirmation is required with 2 follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) measurements. A documented, historical test result measured prior to Screening may be used as 1 of the 2 measurements. The FSH value should be ≥30 IU/L to confirm menopausal status, OR c. Agree to use a highly effective method of contraception from the beginning of Screening until at least 2 weeks after the last dose of study drug. Contraceptive use by men and women also should be consistent with local regulations regarding the methods of contraception for those participating in clinical studies. Periodic abstinence (ie, calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, postovulation methods) and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception."}
  • {"criterion_text":"-4. Male participants agree to use a condom when sexually active with a female partner of childbearing potential from Screening until at least 2 weeks after the last dose of study drug (or be surgically sterile [ie, vasectomy with a confirmed absence of sperm in ejaculate]; or agree to remain abstinent on a long-term and persistent basis). Male participants should also agree to not donate sperm for the duration of the study and until at least 2 weeks after the last dose of study drug."}
