Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study will test whether a testosterone injection (testosterone cypionate) affects blood pressure in men with low testosterone. About 144 men will receive the injection every two weeks for 14 weeks, and their blood pressure will be monitored continuously for 24 hours. The goal is to see if testosterone therapy causes any changes in blood pressure.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
testosterone cypionate injection
What this could lead to
If successful, this study could clarify whether testosterone therapy is safe for blood pressure in men with low testosterone.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase study without a placebo group, so results may not be conclusive. Blood pressure changes may be minor or not clinically meaningful.

Washout must be completed prior to collection of baseline serum testosterone samples to determine study eligibility. * An office blood pressure measurement \<140 millimeters of mercury (mmHg) for SBP AND \<90 mmHg for DBP. * If the subject is on an antihypertensive regimen, he has been on stable dose for at least 4 weeks prior to study enrollment. * If the subject is on glucocorticoids \>7.5 mg prednisone equivalent per day (e.g., hydrocortisone 30 mg, methylprednisolone 6 mg, or dexamethasone 1.2 mg), he has been on stable dose for at least 4 weeks prior to study enrollment with no intention of changing dose for the duration of the study. * Subjects with acceptable laboratory parameters 1. Hematocrit ≤ Upper limit of normal (ULN) 2. Hemoglobin ≤ 16 gm% 3. Prolactin ≤ ULN 4. PSA ≤ 4.0 ng/mL (PSA level between 1.5 to 4.0 ng/mL (both inclusive) for subject who is treated with 5-alpha reductase inhibitors (e.g., dutasteride, finasteride) 5. HbA1c ≤ 9 % 6. ALT ≤ 2.5 x ULN 7. AST ≤ 2.5 x ULN 8. Serum bilirubin ≤ 2.0 mg/dL * No history of addiction to any recreational drug or drug dependence or alcohol abuse (including illicit steroid use) as per Investigator's judgement. * Subject is not considering fathering a child or donating sperm during the study or for approximately 30 days after the last dose of study drug. * Subject is not currently enrolled in another clinical study and will not enroll in another clinical study throughout the duration of the study. Exclusion Criteria: * Subjects with known hypersensitivity to study drug, including androgens, or product excipients. * Subjects with abnormal prostate digital rectal examination (DRE) with palpable nodule(s) or International Prostate Symptom Score (I-PSS) score \> 19 points. * Subjects with history of, or current or suspected, prostate or breast cancer. * Subjects with history of any clinically significant illness, infection, or surgical procedure within 4 weeks prior to study enrollment except for diabetes, or renal disease * Subject with history of fluid or electrolyte imbalance. * Subject taking anticoagulant. * Subjects with history of uncontrolled heart failure, stroke or myocardial infarction within the past 6 months. * Subject with history of severe lower urinary tract symptoms in past 6 months. * Subjects with history of diagnosed, severe, untreated, obstructive sleep apnea. * Subjects working night shifts. * Subjects performing strenuous manual labor or exercise while wearing the ABPM monitor. * Subjects with chronic atrial fibrillation or any other chronic condition, which interferes with the ability to obtain precise ambulatory recordings. * Subject with polycythemia. * Subject with history of thrombophilia or venous thromboembolic events. * Subject with positive serology for Hepatitis B Virus (HBV), Hepatitis C Virus (HCV), or Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). * Participation in any clinical study within 45 days or 5 half-lives of the drug before dosing of Investigational Product. * Loss of ≥ 350 ml (1 unit) of blood within 30 days of enrollment in the study. * Any other medical condition or serious inter current illness that, in the opinion of the Investigator, may make it undesirable for the subject to participate in the study.
