简要总结
This study is designed to evaluate efficacy and safety of a testosterone patch as treatment for low libido in naturally menopausal women who are taking estrogen or estrogen/progestin therapy.
详细描述
Naturally menopausal women with hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD) were randomized into a 24-week, multicenter, multinational, double-blind (DB), parallel-group, placebo-controlled study. Patients were randomized to receive a placebo or testosterone transdermal system throughout the study. Safety was assessed by adverse events, lipids, serum chemistry with hepatic, renal and carbohydrate metabolism evaluation, and hematology. Physical exam including clinical assessments of facial hair and acne were monitored.
