研究概览

简要总结

The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the effect of testosterone replacement in men with renal failure (on dialysis) who also have low testosterone. Specifically, the investigators will assess the change in requirement of Erythropoietin Stimulating agents.

详细描述

Testosterone replacement can increase hemoglobin count. This can therefore decrease the requirement of Erythropoietin Stimulating agents.
