Pharmacokinetic Study to Determine Time to Steady-state

December 10, 2020 updated by: Clarus Therapeutics, Inc.

Pharmacokinetic Study to Determine Time to Steady-state of an Oral Testosterone Undecanoate Formulation in Hypogonadal Men.

The purpose of the study is to confirm how long (i.e., how many days) it takes to reach steady-state when testosterone undecanoate is administered twice daily.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Serum testosterone levels will be obtained in hypogonadal (serum testosterone <300 ng/dL) males receiving testosterone undecanoate capsules administered twice daily. Serum samples will be obtained consecutively in the morning on several days during one month of open-label treatment to confirm the time at which steady-state is reached.
