Safety, including measures of glucose homeostasis, of oral octreotide capsules was evaluated in CHIASMA OPTIMAL, a
prospective phase 3 study in patients whose acromegaly was controlled by injectable SRL treatment
• In trials involving patients previously on somatostatin receptor ligands (SRLs), hyperglycemia occurred in 15% receiving long-acting octreotide2
• Glucagon-producing α cells mostly express SST2, whereas SST5 and SST2 are found in insulin-producing β cells3
• The ratio of affinity to SSTs mediates the balance of glucose production and thus potential hyperglycemia risk4

The Mechanism of Oral Octreotide Capsules
• MYCAPSSA®is an investigational oral octreotide formulation designed for intestinal absorption using an excipient mixture (TPE®), in an enteric-coated hard gelatin capsule1,2
• TPE induces local, transient, and reversible paracellular permeation, enabling orally administered octreotide to be absorbed into systemic circulation1,2
• This formulation is designed to prevent early gastric release

CHIASMA OPTIMAL: Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria
Key Inclusion criteria
• Adults aged ≥18 years at first screening• Evidence of active disease (IGF-I ≥1.3 ×
ULN following the most recent pituitary surgery)
• Received injectable SRL therapy for ≥6 months
• On a stable dose of injectable SRL therapy for ≥3 months
• Average IGF-I ≤1.0 x ULN of 2 screening assessments
Key Exclusion criteria
• Receiving off-label doses of injectable SRLs
• Undergone radiotherapy any time in the past or pituitary surgery within 6 months prior to screening
IGF-I, insulin growth factor-1; ULN, upper limit of normal.
CHIASMA OPTIMAL: Study Design
aEarly study medication discontinuations (both arms), to be followed ≤36 wks, per protocol. bPer study protocol, discontinuations were considered nonresponders regardless of clinical response at the time of discontinuation (nonresponse imputation). Exploratory analyses were performed utilizing the last observation carried forward analysis, as well as a completer analysis of response among the subgroup that completed the entire 36 weeks on study drug. DPC, double-blind placebo-controlled; OLE, open-label extension.

• Most TEAEs were mild or moderate
• GI AEs were transient
• No deaths were reported during the DPC period
• Overall, OOCs were well tolerated; no new/unexpected safety signals were observed
• Three patients in the OOC group experienced severe TEAEs:
○ Gastrointestinal (abdominal discomfort, dyspepsia, nausea, vomiting)
○ Nervous system disorders (headache)
aTEAEs leading to study drug discontinuation in two patients the OOC group were nausea, vomiting, abdominal discomfort, heartburn and headache. bTEAEs of special interest includes: headache, fatigue, perspiration, soft tissue swelling, arthralgia, dysglycemia, hypertension, or other signs in view of investigator as related to acromegaly.SAE, serious adverse event; TEAE, treatment-emergent adverse event.
AEs Related To Blood Glucose Control
Minimal shifts in glucose control were consistent with class effect for first-generation SRLs
AE, adverse event; OOC, oral ocreotide capsules; SRLs, somatostatin receptor ligandsNOTE: Blood glucose increased and hyperglycemia were calculated by the recording of AEs by clinicians according to MedDRA terms.a1 of these AEs was deemed related to study drug by the investigator. bDeemed possibly related to study drug.

Glucose Control Throughout the DPC Period
In the OOC group (n=28)
• 19 patients had normal glucose levels at baseline and EOT (67.9%)
• 3 patients stayed within the same elevated range at EOT as they were at baseline(10.7%)
• 1 patient was in a lower range by EOT(3.6%)
• Shifted from mild elevation to normal range
• 5 patients were in a higher range by EOT(17.9%)
• All shifted from normal range to a mild elevation
