Background: Current standard-of-care assessment of adrenal disorders relies on the venipuncture-based total cortisol measurements. Salivary cortisol (SalF) and cortisone (SalE) measurements have advantages such as a more accurate assessment of patients with cortisol-binging globulin abnormalities and the convenience of at-home non-invasive testing. Aims: This study aimed to compare concentrations of cortisol and dexamethasone between clinical (venipuncture-based) and saliva samples. Methodology: We conducted a cross-sectional study (July 2024-January 2025) of adults undergoing overnight dexamethasone suppression test (DST) or cosyntropin stimulation test (CST). Saliva samples were collected alongside clinical samples. Saliva measurements included cortisol, cortisone, and dexamethasone (mass spectrometry), while clinical samples were tested for total cortisol (Roche immunoassay) and, in a subgroup, dexamethasone (mass spectrometry). Results: Of 241 patients (186 (77%) women, median age 53 years (IQR 39-66)), 178 (74%) provided samples as a part of DST and 63 (26%) as a part CST. An inability to provide sufficient saliva for analysis was found in 5 patients (2%). In patients undergoing DST, median post-dexamethasone serum total cortisol was 1.3 mcg/dL (IQR 0.8-2.2), and median serum dexamethasone (SerD) was 0.43 mcg/dL (IQR 0.3-0.6) based on clinical samples, while median SalF was 10.2 ng/dL (IQR 6.6-23.6), SalE was 78.6 ng/dL (IQR 52.8-131.1), and saliva dexamethasone (SalD) was 60 ng/dL (IQR 41-93). SalE (r=0.92, p<.0001) demonstrated a stronger correlation than SalF (r=0.85, p<.0001) when compared with post-dexamethasone serum total cortisol measurements. SalD (r=0.85, p<.0001) correlated with SerD measurements. In patients undergoing CST, median baseline serum total cortisol was 7.2 mcg/dL (IQR 4.6-10) based on clinical samples, while median baseline SalF was 86.6 ng/dL (IQR 38.3-166.3), and median SalE was 707 ng/dL (IQR 347-906). Median peak 60-minute serum total cortisol was 21.5 mcg/dL (IQR 18-24), while SalF was 870.4 ng/dL (IQR 440-2904) and SalE was 2501 ng/dL (IQR 1770-3193). Both baseline (r=0.92, p<.0001) and 60 min peak post-cosyntropin SalE (r=0.84, p<.0001) demonstrated a strong correlation with venipuncture-based measurements. SalF had a weaker than SalE correlation at both baseline (r=0.88, p<.0001) and 60 min peak post-cosyntropin (r=0.79, p<.0001). Conclusion: Our study demonstrates that salivary measurements of cortisone, cortisol and dexamethasone strongly correlate with standard-of-care venipuncture concentrations following DST and CST. SalE showed the stronger than SalF correlation with venipuncture-based serum total cortisol concentrations. Presentation: Sunday, July 13, 2025

Loss of circadian cortisol variation has been reported in patients with Cushing syndrome (CS), however, is scarcely investigated in patients with mild autonomous cortisol secretion (MACS). Outpatient assessment of late night and early morning salivary cortisol and cortisone may serve as a valuable diagnostic tool in patients with hypercortisolism. Methods: We conducted a single-center cross-sectional study of adults evaluated at our center between 04/2024 and 04/2025. The study included patients with Cushing’s syndrome (CS), mild autonomous cortisol secretion (MACS), and referent subjects without known adrenal disorders. Participants were provided with two cotton swabs (Salivettes) and instructed to collect saliva samples at two standardized time points: at bedtime (PM) and on waking (AM). Each swab was kept in the mouth for 2-2.5 minutes. Saliva was analyzed for cortisol and cortisone using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Delta cortisol and delta cortisone were defined as the difference between AM and PM concentrations for each individual and were calculated for all participants. Results: A total of 82 patients (32 with ACTH-dependent CS, 5 with ACTH-independent CS, and 45 with MACS), median age of 55 years [IQR 44-65], 63 (77%) women, and 71 referent subjects, median age of 34 years [IQR 28-42], 54 (76%) women, were included. Delta cortisol was higher in referents (median of 212 ng/dL, [IQR 157-358]) vs patients with CS (median 95 ng/dL [IQR -21-184]) or MACS (median 131 ng/dL, [IQR 91-229]). Similarly, delta cortisone was also highest in referents with a median of 828 ng/dL [IQR 612-1131] versus median of 211 ng/dL [IQR -58-468] in CS and 484 ng/dL [IQR 189-849] in MACS. When compared to referents in an age- and sex-adjusted linear regression model, delta cortisone was lower in both patients with CS (est -1.3 (95%CI -1.75 to -0.85), P<0.001 and MACS (est -0.66, 95%CI of -1.17 to -0.16, P=0.010). Delta cortisol was lower in patients with CS (est -1.32, 95%CI -2.11 to -0.54, P=0.001), but not MACS (est -0.51, 95%CI -1.39 to 0.36). Conclusion: Patients with both CS and MACS demonstrate a blunted circadian salivary cortisol and cortisone secretion, as reflected by a lower delta cortisol and cortisone when compared to referent subjects. Assessment with delta salivary cortisone in patients with MACS may be more valuable than a standard of care late night salivary cortisol assessment. Presentation: Sunday, July 13, 2025

Background: Salivary cortisol (SalF), and cortisone (SalE) interpretation can be influenced by intra-individual variability arising from cortisol secretion cyclicity, assay performance, and sampling techniques. No studies to date have examined the impact of sampling on intra-individual variability. Methods: We conducted a single-center cross-sectional study of adults evaluated with total serum cortisol measurements as a part of the overnight dexamethasone suppression test (DST) or cosyntropin stimulation test (CST), November 2024- January 2025. Participants were provided with two cotton swabs (salivettes) and asked to collect two consecutive saliva samples immediately after the venipuncture for total cortisol. Each cotton swab was kept in the mouth for 2-2.5 minutes. Saliva was tested for SalF and SalE by mass spectrometry. Variability was examined based on cortisol tertiles. Results: A total of 78 paired saliva samples were obtained from 60 participants (45 [75%] women; median age 55 years [IQR 39-66]), who were undergoing either DST (42 [70%]) or CST (18 [30%]). A total of 10 (17%) saliva samples did not contain a sufficient sample for analysis during the first or second saliva collection (7 [12%] from DST group, and 3 [5%] from CST group).Among 53 patients undergoing DST, the median serum total cortisol was 1.3 mcg/dL [IQR 0.9-3], the median first SalF was 20 ng/dL [IQR 7-28], the median second SalF was 12 ng/dL [IQR 6-23], and the median variability was 11% [IQR 3-22%]. The median first SalE was 69 ng/dL [IQR 54-185], while the median second SalE was 63 ng/dL [IQR 56-178], with a median variability of 6% [IQR 4-10].In patients undergoing CST, peak median serum total cortisol was 20 mcg/dL [IQR 18-24], median first SalF was 809 ng/dL [IQR 536-1227], and median second SalF was 1063 ng/dL [IQR 667-1503], with the median variability of 14% [IQR 8-22]. The median first SalE was 2507 ng/dL [IQR1697-2966], while the median second SalE was 2485 ng/dL [IQR 1530-2976], with a median variability of 9% [IQR 3-12].When examining intra-individual variability of SalF, the variability was lowest in the middle tertile, corresponding to serum cortisol of 1.8-8.9 mcg/dL, at 9% [IQR 5-16]. Variability was higher in the lowest tertile (14% [IQR 0-52]) and the highest tertile (12% [IQR 6-16]). Overall, the variability of SalE was lower than that of SalF: 7% [IQR 4-13] in the lowest tertile, 5% [IQR 2-9] in the middle tertile, and 10% [IQR 4-12] in the highest tertile. Conclusion: We show that saliva sampling may impact the results, with 17% patients providing insufficient sample for analysis, and variability of 9-14% for SalF and 5-10% for SalE. Same time-point sampling-related variability should be considered in interpretation of SalF and SalE measurements. Presentation: Sunday, July 13, 2025

Abstract Disclosure: M. Salehi: None. K. Yu: None. C.A. Villavicencio Torres: None. V. Fell: None. I. Bancos: None. Context: The use of the 1 mg overnight dexamethasone suppression test (1 mg-DST) is considered the standard-of-care test for the assessment of hypercortisolism. Scarce data are available on the utility of 8 mg-DST in distinguishing adrenal from pituitary hypercortisolism. Objective: To determine the value of 8 mg-DST in diagnosing hypercortisolism subtype. Methods: We conducted a single-center retrospective cohort study (2005-2024) of consecutive adults who underwent both the 1 mg-DST and the 8 mg-DST within a 6-month period. Only patients with optimal reference standard confirming the type of hypercortisolism were included. Patients were excluded if they had an abnormal DST and dexamethasone concentration <100 ng/dL or were receiving oral estrogen therapy. Delta cortisol [(post 1 mg-DST cortisol- post 8 mg-DST cortisol) x100/post 1 mg-DST cortisol)] was calculated for each patient. Results: A total of 61 patients (50, 82% women, median age 60 years, interquartile range, IQR 47-67) underwent both 1- and 8 mg-DST at least once, with 8 (13%) patients undergoing the 1 mg-DST and 8 mg-DST twice, and 1 (1.6%) patient undergoing both tests thrice. Adrenal hypercortisolism was diagnosed in 44 (72%) patients and pituitary hypercortisolism in 17 (28%) patients. Median post 1 mg-DST cortisol was 4.6 mcg/dL (IQR 2.8-7.2) in adrenal and 13.7 mcg/dL (IQR 7.3-21.7) in pituitary hypercortisolism. Median post 8 mg-DST cortisol was 3.2 mcg/dL (IQR 2.5-6.3) in adrenal and 3.6 mcg/dL (IQR 2.2-7.5) in pituitary hypercortisolism. Median delta cortisol was higher in pituitary hypercortisolism when compared to adrenal hypercortisolism (69%, IQR 25-83 vs 5 %, IQR -20-16, P<0.001). Delta cortisol demonstrated a good discrimination in distinguishing adrenal from pituitary hypercortisolism with a median area under receiver operator of 82% (95%CI 69-92). A cut-off of 25% provided a specificity of > 85%, while a cut-off of -1% yielded a sensitivity of > 85% in diagnosing adrenal hypercortisolism. Conclusion: In this study, we show that performing 8 mg-DST in addition to 1 mg-DST in selected patients with hypercortisolism and calculating delta cortisol is a valuable in distinguishing hypercortisolism subtype.

Context: The impact of active hypercortisolism on sleep is incompletely characterized. Several studies report impaired sleep in patients with Cushing syndrome (CS). Patients with mild autonomous cortisol secretion (MACS) demonstrate an abnormal circadian cortisol secretion with mild nocturnal hypercortisolism that could also impact sleep. Objectives: To characterize sleep abnormalities and to identify factors associated with impaired sleep in patients with CS and MACS. Methods: We conducted a single-center cross-sectional study of prospectively enrolled adults with active CS and MACS evaluated between August 31, 2020, and December 2, 2024. Clinical and biochemical severity scores for hypercortisolism were calculated. Quality of life (QoL) was assessed using 1) Short Form-36 (SF-36), physical (PCS) and mental (MCS) component summaries, and 2) Cushing QOL survey, with psychosocial and physical domains. Sleep quality was assessed using Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), a global score of ≥5 was considered abnormal. Pearson correlations and linear regression models were used to explore associations with PSQI scores. Results: In 285 patients (226 [79%] women, 259 [91%] White, median age of 54 [IQR 44-64] years), MACS was diagnosed in 147 (52%) and CS in 138 (48%). Patients reported abnormal sleep (median PSQI of 12 (IQR 8-16) in CS vs 10 (IQR 7-15) in MACS (P=0.086). Most prevalent sleep abnormalities included report of “fairly bad” or “very bad” overall sleep quality (73% in CS and 54% in MACS) and report of severe day dysfunction due to sleepiness (70% in CS and 56% in MACS). In an age-, sex- and BMI- adjusted univariable analysis of patients with hypercortisolism, higher clinical hypercortisolism severity score (r=0.13, P=0.024) and worse QoL, as measured by SF-36 and Cushing QoL (P=<0.001 for all), were associated with higher PSQI scores, a reflection of poor sleep. In a multivariable analysis of patients with hypercortisolism, we found that younger age (est -0.08, P=<0.001), female sex (est 1.95, P=0.004), lower BMI (est -0.07, P=0.041), and higher clinical severity score (est 0.12, P=0.024) were associated with higher PSQI scores, indicating impaired sleep. In a multivariable analysis of only patients with MACS, female sex (est 2.17, P=0.012), lower BMI (est -0.12, P=0.017), and higher clinical severity score (est 0.24, P=0.003), but not age were associated with higher PSQI scores, indicating impaired sleep. In patients with CS, only younger age (est -0.12, P=<0.001), but not other variables were associated with higher PSQI scores. Conclusion: We found that patients with MACS have impaired sleep, possibly due to nocturnal hypercortisolism. In patients with MACS, but not CS, clinical hypercortisolism severity score was associated with more impaired sleep. Presentation: Sunday, July 13, 2025

Objectives: 1) To characterize sleep abnormalities and to identify factors associated with impaired sleep in patients with MACS. 2) To compare sleep abnormalities between patients with MACS and referent subjects. Methods: We conducted a single-center cross-sectional study of prospectively enrolled adults with MACS evaluated between August 31, 2020, and April 03, 2025. In parallel, we conducted a referent subject study between May 15, 2019, and May 02, 2023. Referent subjects were eligible if they had abdominal cross-sectional imaging without evidence of an adrenal mass. For patients with MACS, clinical and biochemical severity scores for hypercortisolism were calculated. In both groups, quality of life was assessed using Short Form-36 (SF-36), physical (PCS) and mental (MCS) component summaries. Sleep quality was assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), a global score of ≥5 was considered abnormal. Pearson correlations and linear regression models were used to explore associations with PSQI scores. Results: The total cohort included 167 patients with MACS and 89 referent subjects. No differences in age (median 60 vs 56 years, P= 0.122) and sex (71% vs 67% females, P= 0.523) were observed between patients with MACS and referents. However, median BMI was higher in patients with MACS (32 28 kg/m2 [IQR 28-38] vs 28 kg/m2 [IQR 24-32], P= < 0.001). Patients with MACS had more impaired sleep than referent subjects (median PSQI 11 [IQR 7-15] vs 5 [IQR 3-7], P= <0.001). In an age-, sex- and BMI- adjusted univariable analysis, lower PCS and MCS scores were associated with poor sleep in both referents (r= -0.45, P= <0.001 and r= -0.29, P= 0.008) and patients with MACS (r= -0.36 and -0.38, P= <0.001), however, the presence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) was not. In patients with MACS, both higher clinical and biochemical severity scores were associated with poor sleep (r=0.20, P=0.012) and (r= 0.15, P= 0.050). Multivariable analysis of age, sex, BMI, clinical severity and OSA demonstrated that women (est 2.35, P= 0.004), lower BMI (est -0.13, P= 0.014) and higher clinical severity score (est 0.17, P=0.026), but not OSA were associated with impaired sleep in patients with MACS. All PSQI subcomponents were higher in patients with MACS vs referents, indicating poor sleep-most significantly, sleep quality score (OR 3.93, 95% CI: 2.58-6.29), sleep disturbance score (OR 3.73, 95% CI: 2.28-6.37) and daytime dysfunction score (OR 4.74, 95% CI: 2.29-10.75). Conclusion: Patients with MACS report impaired sleep, and women with lower BMI and higher clinical hypercortisolism severity scores are more affected. Reversing abnormal nocturnal hypercortisolism may improve sleep. Presentation: Saturday, July 12, 2025

Atkinson: None. I. Bancos: Funding for investigator-initiated research from Esteve. Context: Mild autonomous cortisol secretion (MACS), found in about 50% of patients with adrenal incidentalomas, is associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity. While adrenalectomy improves outcomes in unilateral MACS, safe and effective medical therapy is needed for bilateral MACS. Objectives: To evaluate the tolerability and safety of overnight metyrapone in adults with MACS. Methods: Study design: Open-Label, Phase 2, Clinical Trial (NCT06106295) Participants: Patients >18-years-old with MACS and benign adrenal imaging phenotype were prospectively enrolled between December 2023 and January 2025. MACS was diagnosed based on 1 mg post-dexamethasone suppression test serum cortisol >1.8 mcg/dL. Eligibility required at least one MACS-associated comorbidity (obesity, dysglycemia, dyslipidemia, hypertension, osteopenia or osteoporosis). Intervention: Metyrapone was administered at an initial dose of 250 mg each evening with up titration in 250 mg increments every 2-4 weeks based on tolerance, to a maximum of 1000 mg. Outcomes: The primary endpoint was assessment of treatment-related adverse events (AE), categorized by CTCAE grade. Adrenal insufficiency (AI) was considered an AE, assessed on biochemistry and AddiQoL survey. Sample size: 30 patients projected Results: Twenty-six patients with MACS [median age 66 years (IQR 61-68), 69% women] were enrolled. At the time of analysis, median metyrapone dose was 1000 mg (IQR 750-1000). At median follow-up of 3 months (IQR 2-6), 22 patients (85%) developed at least one AE. None were serious, aside from one patient with an acute kidney injury (AKI), unlikely related to metyrapone. All other AEs were CTCAE Grade 1-2, including dizziness 12%, nausea 6% and fatigue 5%. Of all 90 AEs, 12 (13%) occurred at a dose of 250 mg, 10 (11%) at 500 mg, 20 (22%) at 750 mg and 48 (53%) at 1000 mg. One (1%) was definitely related to metyrapone (hypokalemia), 16 (18%) probably related, 20 (22%) possibly related, 35 (39%) unlikely to be related, and 18 (20%) unrelated to metyrapone. Dose was reduced in 5 patients (19%) due to an AE. Two discontinued metyrapone, one because of AKI, while the other withdrew from the study. Morning serum cortisol was not significantly changed between baseline [11.5 (IQR 9.2-14.8)], 3 months [12.0 (IQR 11.0-15.0)], and 6 months [9.7 (IQR 7.9-12.5)] (normal: 4.8-20 mcg/dL). No patient developed AI (morning serum cortisol <10 mcg/dL and ACTH >60 pg/ml), but plasma ACTH significantly increased from baseline to 3 months [8.0 (IQR 5.4-20.8) vs. 18.0 (IQR 14.0-28.0), P=0.021] (normal: 10-60 pg/ml). Between 3 and 6 months, no significant change occurred in ACTH. AddiQol survey scores did not change significantly between baseline, 3 and 6 months. Conclusion: Metyrapone therapy in patients with MACS demonstrated a favorable safety profile with no occurrence of AI. Further investigation into efficacy and MACS-associated outcomes is warranted.

ABSTRACT Objective Data on bone health in patients with mild autonomous cortisol secretion (MACS) are limited and heterogenous. We sought to assess the prevalence of osteoporosis and symptomatic fragility fractures in patients with adrenal adenomas and hypercortisolism, and explore associations with the degree of cortisol excess and frailty. Design This multicenter cross ‐sectional study involved prospective enrollment of adults with nonfunctioning adrenal adenomas (NFA), MACS, Cushing syndrome (CS) and referent subjects without adrenal disorders during the study period (January 2019–September 2022). All participants completed a bone health questionnaire at enrollment and had dual‐energy X ‐ray absorptiometry bone mineral density assessment within 12‐months. Final analyses were adjusted for age, sex, body mass index, smoking status, alcohol use. Results Participants included 117 with NFA (median age 62 years, 80% women), 191 with MACS (median age 63 years, 74% women), 62 with CS (median age 50 years, 92% women), and 101 referent subjects (median age 59 years, 47% women). Both patients with CS (OR: 3.0, 95% CI: 1.1–8.3) and MACS (OR: 2.2, 95% CI: 1.9–4.9) had a higher prevalence of osteoporosis when compared to referents. Among patients with MACS, only those with post 1‐mg dexamethasone suppression test (post‐1mg‐DST) cortisol > 83 nmol/L had a higher prevalence of osteoporosis when compared to referents (OR: 3.2, 95% CI: 1.4–7.5) and NFA (OR: 2.2, 95% CI: 1.1–4.4). For clinical fragility fractures, only patients with CS showed an increased prevalence when compared to referents (OR: 6.1, 95% CI: 1.7–26.4) and NFA (OR: 3.8, 95% CI: 1.3–11.2). Prevalence of clinical fragility fractures was similar to referents in patients with MACS (OR: 1.8, 95% CI: 0.6–6.9) and NFA (OR: 1.5, 95% CI: 0.4–6.1), and was not associated with post‐1mg‐DST cortisol or frailty in the MACS and NFA groups. Conclusion Patients with CS, and those with MACS and post‐1mg‐DST cortisol > 83 nmol/L, exhibited a higher burden of osteoporosis. However, only CS was associated with an elevated risk of symptomatic fragility fractures.

Abstract Context The impact of active hypercortisolism on sleep is incompletely characterized. Studies report impaired sleep in patients with Cushing syndrome (CS). Patients with mild autonomous cortisol secretion (MACS) demonstrate mild nocturnal hypercortisolism that could impact sleep. Objectives To characterize sleep abnormalities in patients with CS and MACS using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), identify factors associated with poor sleep, and compare sleep abnormalities in patients with MACS vs referent subjects. Methods We conducted a single-center cross-sectional study of adults with active CS and MACS. Clinical and biochemical severity scores for hypercortisolism were calculated. Parallelly, we enrolled referent subjects. Quality of life was assessed using (1) the Short Form-36 (SF-36) in all participants and (2) the CushingQoL in patients with active hypercortisolism. Sleep quality was assessed using PSQI. Results PSQI was assessed in 154 patients with CS (mean 12, SD ±4.5), 194 patients with MACS (mean 11, SD 4.6), and 89 referents (mean 5, SD ±3.4). Patients with MACS exhibited shorter sleep duration, longer sleep latency, more severe daytime dysfunction, lower sleep efficiency, and a higher sleep medication use compared to referent subjects (P = <.001 for all). Age-, sex, and body mass index-adjusted analysis demonstrated no differences in PSQI or its subcomponents between patients with CS and MACS (P > .05 for all). In a multivariable analysis of patients with MACS, younger age, female sex, and higher clinical hypercortisolism severity score were associated with impaired sleep. In patients with CS, only younger age was associated with poor sleep. Conclusion Patients with MACS demonstrate sleep impairment that is similar to patients with CS. Younger women with higher clinical severity of MACS are more likely to have impaired sleep.

ABSTRACT Objectives To characterize practice patterns and outcomes in the management of low‐ and intermediate‐grade salivary gland carcinoma prior to the existence of treatment guidelines. Methods Analysis of a registry of patients who underwent parotid and submandibular gland resections for low‐and intermediate‐grade carcinomas between 2010 and 2019. Results Of all 786 patients included in the study, 726 (92%) had preoperative imaging and 653 (83%) had preoperative biopsy. Of the 729 patients with parotid gland cancer, the majority underwent superficial ( n = 384, 53%) or total ( n = 254, 35%) parotidectomy. In patients with facial nerve preservation, total parotidectomy was associated with a significant increase in transient facial weakness (72/177 (41%) vs. 82/311 (26%), RR 0.65, 95% CI 0.50–0.84, p < 0.05) and permanent facial nerve weakness (23/176 (13%) vs. 16/301 (5%), RR 0.41, 95% CI 0.22–0.75, p < 0.05) compared to superficial parotidectomy. Adjuvant radiation therapy ( RT ) was delivered to 285 (36%) patients. The proportion of patients receiving adjuvant RT declined significantly over the time period from 2015 to 2019 compared to 2010 to 2014 at 162/504 (32%) and 123/282 (44%), respectively ( RR 0.74, 95% CI 0.61–0.89, p < 0.05). When comparing the time periods from 2015 to 2019 and 2010 to 2014, there was no significant difference in local control rates ( RR 0.52, 95% CI 0.26–1.04, p = 0.06) or regional control rates ( RR 0.75, 95% CI 0.26–2.13, p = 0.58). Conclusions Management of low‐ and intermediate‐grade salivary cancer from 2010 to 2019 was variable, which is expected given the rarity and heterogeneity of the disease and the lack of treatment guidelines prior to 2021. Most patients with parotid malignancies underwent superficial or total parotidectomy. The extent of parotidectomy had an impact on facial nerve function outcomes. Delivery of adjuvant radiation trended down with time. The data presented here will support dissemination of the guidelines and provide data that could inform future trials. Level of Evidence 2b.
