Hypogonadism Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Multicenter, Randomized, Parallel-Group, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Oral Administration of Different Doses of Org 538 in Symptomatic Aging Men With Androgen Deficiency
In this study we have evaluated the effects of three different doses of oral testosterone
undecanoate in aging men presenting with a combination of symptoms suggestive of
hypogonadism and low blood levels of the male hormone testosterone.
Specifically, we have studied the effects on:
- symptoms suggestive of low testosterone levels
- blood testosterone and other hormone levels
- bone mass
- muscle mass and fat mass
- muscle strength
- prostate
- lipids, hematocrit
