  • Abdominal obesity (waist circumference greater than or equal to 95cm)
  • Serum testosterone levels of less than or equal to 14 nmol/L
  • At screening visit, a 2hr plasma glucose greater than or equal to 7.8 and less than or equal to 15 mmol/L in response to a 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT)
  • Willing to participate in a lifestyle program co-ordinated by Weight Watchers
  • Able and willing to meet all protocol-required procedures and visits
  • Able to personally read and understand the Participant Information and Consent Form and provide written, signed and dated informed consent to participate in study

排除标准

  • Testosterone treatment in the past 12 months
  • Baseline T less than 8 nmol/L , except where the participant has been assessed by a study investigator and all causes of low testosterone other than obesity have been ruled out.
  • Previously diagnosed Type 2 Diabetes
  • Symptoms indicating a requirement for specific pharmacotherapy for diabetes
  • Use of any medication known to affect testosterone or SHBG within the previous 1 month or with an underlying condition where there is an appreciable possibility that these may be required within the next 2 years. Includes medications which:
  • Affect the production (e.g. opiates, GnRH agonists) or action (e.g. spironolactone) of androgens
  • Affect the production of Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG) (e.g. thyroxine, insulin, growth hormone, antiepileptics):- please note thyroxine permitted if the dose has been stable for at least 3 months and will remain so.
  • Significant hypothalamo-pituitary gonadal (HPG) pathology likely to require treatment with T, excluding cryptorchidism, torsion, orchitis, well-treated hemochromatosis.
  • Ongoing episode of major depression or other significant psychiatric disorder
  • Prior history of prostate cancer or :
  • Greater than upper limit of normal for age-adjusted PSA values
  • Clinical suspicion of malignancy on digital rectal examination (DRE)
  • Score of greater than 19 on the IPSS (Q1-7), indicating severe symptoms of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH)
  • Breast, liver cancer or other malignancy, except for non-melanomatous carcinoma of the skin, which could affect compliance with the protocol or interpretation of study results
  • Significant personal or first-degree family history of thrombophilia, or taking anticoagulants other than low dose Aspirin (<150mg) and/or clopidogrel
  • Known to be human immunodeficiency virus ( HIV) positive
  • Major cardiovascular event within the previous 6 months, or active cardiac disease defined as one or more of the following:
  • New York Heart Association functional classification of heart failure greater than or equal to 2 (See Appendix II) or symptomatic angina
  • Uncontrolled arrhythmias, or arrhythmias deemed clinically significant by the investigator
  • Myocardial infarction , cardiac stenting or angioplasty in past 6 months
  • Transient Ischaemic Attack (TIA) or stroke within the previous 3 years
  • Elevated blood pressure (greater than 160 systolic and greater than 100mmHg diastolic) at screening
  • Haematocrit greater than 50%
  • Abnormal liver function: ALT, GGT, Bilirubin or ALP greater than 3 times upper limit of normal (ULN)
  • Known chronic viral hepatitis
  • eGFR less than 30 mL/minute
  • Clinically significant non-malignant disease that is likely to lead to serious illness or death within 2 years, or in the opinion of the Clinical Investigator, requires other intervention
  • Previous or planned bariatric surgery
  • Treatment with anti-obesity drugs or any investigational medication within 6 months prior to informed consent
  • Known history of anabolic steroid, drug or alcohol abuse within 6 months prior to the time of screening
