简要总结
The study will determine the effects of three doses of Androxal(enclomiphene citrate)on morning testosterone versus AndroGel(approved topical treatment)in men with low testosterone (<350 ng/dL)after 6 weeks of continuous dosing.
详细描述
Study will require 7 visits, which includes 2 overnight stays in a clinic. One visit is an eye exam. Blood samples are required at all visits including sampling every hour for a 24 hour time period during the 2 overnight stays. A six month extension study will be available for all subjects completing the 6-week study.

Time points (in hours after dosing) at which testosterone concentration was measured are: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24.
次要结局
- Change in Leuteinizing Hormone (LH)(Baseline, Week 2, Week 4, Week 6)
- Change in Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH)(Baseline, Week 2, Week 4, Week 6)
