Patients already on anti-cortisol therapy will be classified as having corticosteroid producing tumors regardless of their plasma ACTH and serum cortisol levels, as these levels can be affected by anti-cortisol therapy
• •STEP 1: Not pregnant and not nursing, because this study involves an agent that has known genotoxic, mutagenic and teratogenic effects based on animal reproduction studies. Therefore, for women of childbearing potential only, a negative urine or serum pregnancy test, per institution standard, done ≤ 14 days prior to registration is required
