A Phase 3 interventional study of Testosterone MD-Lotion in Hypogonadism, sponsored by Eli Lilly and Company. Completed at 27 sites in 6 countries. Open to male participants aged 18 Years and older. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2011-07-25.
Sponsored by Eli Lilly and Company · Phase 3, Interventional, and Treatment
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.
345 studies on the registry are indexed under Hypogonadism; 43 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 155 is above the median of 56 across 260 interventional studies indexed under Hypogonadism.

Exclusion Criteria:
Any man in whom testosterone therapy was contraindicated, which included those with:
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
30 mg to 120 mg administered topically once daily for 120 days

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).

Change From Baseline to Endpoint in Psychosexual Daily Questionnaire
Questions included: Sexual Desire (0=none to 7=very high), Overall Sexual Activity Score (calculated as average of weekly values on scale from 0=none to 7=Frequent), Erection Maintained for Satisfactory Duration (0=not satisfactory to 7=very satisfactory), and Positive and Negative Mood (individual mood variables on scale from 0=Not at all true to 7=very true). Positive mood: sum of 4 positive mood variables-alert, full of pep/energetic, friendly, and well/good (range from 0-28). Negative mood: sum of 5 negative mood variables-angry, irritable, sad/blue, tired, and nervous (range from 0-35).
Time frame: Baseline, Day 120
Change From Baseline to Endpoint in the 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36)
The SF-36 Health Status Survey is a generic, health-related scale assessing subjects' quality of life on 8 domains: physical functioning, social functioning, bodily pain, vitality, mental health, role-physical, role-emotional and general health and 2 summary scores (mental component summary \[MCS\] and physical component summary \[PCS\]). MCS and PCS scores=0-100 (higher scores indicate better health status).

Change From Baseline to Endpoint in Draize Score
Draize score is a measurement of skin irritability of the application site based on erythema/eschar and oedema. Erythema/eschar scoring ranges from 0 (no erythema) to 4 (severe erythema \[beet redness\] to slight eschar formation \[injuries in depth\]). Oedema scoring ranges from 0 (no oedema) to 4 (severe oedema \[raised more than 1 millimeter and extending beyond area of exposure\]. The total Draize score ranges from 0 to 8.
