First seen Dec 30, 2025 · Last updated May 12, 2026 · Updated 17 times

Summary

This study looks at whether giving testosterone to men with low testosterone and end-stage kidney disease before a kidney transplant can help them recover better and more safely. About 50 men will receive testosterone therapy for at least 3 months before their transplant, and their outcomes will be compared to a similar group from the past who did not get testosterone. The goal is to see if this approach reduces complications and improves graft and patient survival.
