简要总结

This study in being conducted in men who have low testosterone and chronic kidney disease. The investigators will evaluate the effects of an oral testosterone preparation, JATENZO, on testosterone levels and hemoglobin (red blood cells).

详细描述

  • Purpose. The purpose of this research is to find out if JATENZO will help increase testosterone levels in men with hypogonadism and chronic kidney disease, determine if there is any improvement in testosterone levels, hemoglobin (red blood cells), muscle strength, lean mass and sexual function.
  • The dug will be daily for 6 months. Study Procedures. Every 2-4 weeks, the study participant will come in person for a research visit. Investigators will collect a blood sample at certain visits, do a brief physical exam, and obtain vital signs such as height, weight, blood pressure. The study also involves completing questionnaires, measuring body composition by a scan and testing muscle strength. The dose of JATENZO may be adjusted based on the testosterone levels.
