Corcept: 'Strong Buy' On Lifyorli FDA Approval And ALS Phase 3 Advancement

Summary Corcept Therapeutics Incorporated remains a Strong Buy following early FDA approval of Lyforli [relacorilant] plus nab-paclitaxel for platinum-resistant ovarian cancer [PROC]. The company expects further upside from European approval, additional oncology indications, and a triple-combo study with Avastin, with key data and decisions anticipated by year-end. Phase 2 data for dazucorilant in ALS showed significant 1- and 2-year survival benefits, supporting a planned phase 3 study targeting overall survival as a primary endpoint. CORT 2026 revenue guidance was raised to $950–$1,050 million, driven by strong Lyforli uptake and robust Korlym sales, though risks include EU approval uncertainty and potential pricing pressures.
