When you say that the new drug "blocks cortisol", does that mean it increases the blood levels of it, or decreases it? I've read some articles which suggest a link between high levels of cortisol in the blood and depression, so I'm assuming that blocking cortisol would have an overall effect of reducing blood levels.
