Corcept Therapeutics Incorporated is a pharmaceutical company focused on developing drugs for treating severe psychiatric and neurological diseases. Corcept''s lead product, CORLUX, is in Phase clinical trials for treating the psychotic features of PMD. The drug is administered orally to PMD patients once per day for seven days.

The company has also initiated a proof-of-concept study to evaluate the ability of CORLUX to mitigate weight gain associated with the use of olanzapine.
