NCT00702650

Brief Summary

Testosterone replacement treatment is the most effective way of treating hypogonadism in men. Acrux has a propriety testosterone replacement product- Testosterone MD-Lotion (cutaneous solution), and this study will evaluate the efficacy via pharmacokinetics of various doses of this product. The study will also assess safety of the product.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Percentage of Participants With 24-Hour Average Concentration [Cavg(0-24h)] Total Testosterone Within Normal Range at Day 120

    Cavg(0-24) is the average serum concentration calculated over the 24 hour period on Day 120. Calculated as the AUC(0-24) divided by 24 hours. Normal range for Total Testosterone was defined as 300 - 1050 nanograms per deciliter (ng/dL).

    Day 120

Secondary Outcomes (14)

  • Percentage of Participants With Maximum Serum Concentration (Cmax) >1500 ng/dL

    Day 120

  • Percentage of Participants With Cmax Between 1800 and 2500 ng/dL

    Day 120

  • Percentage of Participants With Cmax >2500 ng/dL

    Day 120

  • Percentage of Participants With Minimum Concentration (Cmin) <300 ng/dL

    Day 120

  • Change From Baseline to Endpoint in Psychosexual Daily Questionnaire

Study Arms (1)

Testosterone MD-Lotion

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants received Testosterone Metered Dose (MD)-Lotion for 120 days. Participants started by receiving 3.0 mL (60 mg) of 2% Testosterone MD-Lotion, and based upon restoration to eugonadal levels, may have had their dose of testosterone adjusted upwards or downwards on Days 45 and 90. Doses could be titrated to one of the following: 1.5 mL (30 mg) of 2% Testosterone MD-Lotion applied daily by 1 dose to the axilla (1.5 mL to one axilla). 3.0 mL (60 mg) of 2% Testosterone MD-Lotion applied daily by 2 doses to the axilla (1.5 mL to each axilla). 4.5 mL (90 mg) of 2% Testosterone MD-Lotion applied daily by 3 doses to the axilla (2 x 1.5 mL to one axilla and 1 x 1.5 mL to the other axilla). 6.0 mL (120 mg) of 2% Testosterone MD-Lotion applied daily by 4 doses to the axilla (2 x 1.5 mL to each axilla).

Drug: Testosterone MD-Lotion

Interventions

30 mg to 120 mg administered topically once daily for 120 days

Also known as: LY900011, Axiron

  • Chronic skin disorder (e.g. eczema, psoriasis) likely to interfere with transdermal drug absorption
  • Men with suspected reversible hypogonadism
  • Any man in whom testosterone therapy was contraindicated, which included those with:
  • Known or suspected carcinoma (or history of carcinoma) of the prostate or clinically significant symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia and/or clinically significant symptoms of lower urinary obstruction and International Prostate Symptom Scores (IPSS) scores of greater than or equal to 19

  • Active deep vein thrombosis, thromboembolic disorders or a documented history of these conditions
  • Current significant cerebrovascular or coronary artery disease
  • Untreated sleep apnoea
  • Haematocrit of \> 51
  • Untreated moderate to severe depression
