Please note, this OEL/ADE monograph also applies to pasireotide diaspartate (CAS RN 820232-50-6) and pasireotide pamoate (CAS RN 396091-79-5). Pasireotide diaspartate is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with Cushing’s disease for whom pituitary surgery is not an option or has not been curative. Pasireotide diaspartate is an injectable cyclohexapeptide somatostatin analogue. Pasireotide exerts its pharmacological activity via binding to somatostatin receptors (SSTRs). Five human somatostatin receptor subtypes are known, such as SSTR 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. These receptor subtypes are expressed in different tissues under normal physiological conditions. Corticotroph tumor cells from Cushing’s disease patients frequently over-express SSTR5 whereas the other receptor subtypes are often not expressed or are expressed at lower levels. Pasireotide binds and activates the SSTRs resulting in inhibition of ACTH secretion, which leads to decreased cortisol secretion.
