Summary

The study will evaluate the pharmacokinetics of testosterone transdermal systems at steady-state in hypogonadal men.

Clinical Details

Official title: An Open Label, Dose-Titration Investigation of the Pharmacokinetics, Metabolism and Safety of Testosterone Transdermal Systems in Hypogonadal Men

Study design: Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment

Primary outcome: Time-average (Cavg) Steady State Testosterone Concentration Over 24 Hours

Detailed description: Subjects will receive testosterone for 4 weeks. Based on a single morning testosterone measurement performed at the end of Week 1, the dosage can be titrated up or down to the next dose level to maintain testosterone levels in the normal range. At the end of 4 weeks of treatment, a pharmacokinetic profile for total testosterone and metabolites will be obtained.
