Clinical Trial: 28-Day Study of Testosterone Co-administered With Dutasteride in Hypogonadal Men

Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: Completed
Study Type: Interventional

Official Title: A Phase II, 28-Day, Randomized, Parallel-Group, Open-Label Study Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of Twice Daily Oral Doses of Testosterone (150-400mg) Co-administered With 0.25mg Dutasteride Compar

Brief Summary: The combination of testosterone and dutasteride is intended for use in hypogonadal men. This study will evaluate the effect of 28-day repeat dosing of this combination with varying BID doses of testosterone (T), in combination with a fixed BID dose of dutasteride (D), as well as a testosterone alone arm, on T and D levels in the blood. The rationale is to look for the effects of each compound on the other, and to look for any safety problems that may result when the 2 drugs are given together.
