Registered outcomes5
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Number of Participants With Total Serum Testosterone Concentration Within Normal Range at Week 12 | Week 12 | Normal range for total serum testosterone was defined as 300 to 1050 nanograms per deciliter (ng/dL). |
| Secondary | Change From Baseline to Week 12 in Sexual Arousal, Interest, and Drive (SAID) Scale Scores | Baseline, Week 12 | The SAID Scale is a self-administered instrument used to assess sexual arousal, interest, and sex drive in men with symptomatic hypogonadism. The SAID consists of 5 questions that were scored on a scale from 1 to 5, with "5" corresponding to greater levels of sexual arousal, interest, or drive. The SAID Scale total score was computed by summing the item scores and linearly transforming the sum to a 0 to 100 scale, with higher scores corresponding to greater sexual arousal, interest, and drive. Least squares (LS) mean change from baseline was calculated using an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) with treatment group and the baseline value as covariates. |
| Secondary | Change From Baseline to Week 12 in Hypogonadism Energy Diary (HED) Scores | Baseline, Week 12 | The HED is a self-administered instrument used to assess real-time energy levels in men with symptomatic hypogonadism. It consists of 2 questions that were scored on a scale from 0 to 10, with "10" corresponding to "Full of Energy" or "Not Tired at All" (The Tiredness scale was reverse-mapped, as it was collected with "10" corresponding to "Extreme Tiredness"). The questionnaire was completed 3 times daily (forming 6 unique items) for 7 consecutive days. Item scores were computed by averaging the values for each item across 7 days. If more than 2 days were missing for an item, the item score was missing. The total score was computed by summing the item scores and linearly transforming the sum to a 0 to 100 scale, with higher scores corresponding to greater energy. If any item score was missing, the total score was missing. LS mean change from baseline was calculated using ANCOVA with treatment group and the baseline value as covariates. |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) >4 Nanogram/Milliliter (ng/mL) | Double Blind Baseline, Week 12, Open Label Baseline, Week 36 | |
| Other | Change From Baseline in Total International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) | Baseline, Week 12, Week 36 | The IPSS is a self-administered instrument used to assess for the severity of lower urinary tract symptoms. The IPSS consists of 7 questions that were scored on a scale from 0 (none/no symptoms) to 5 (frequent symptoms), for a total score range of 0 to 35. Higher numerical scores from the IPSS questionnaire represent greater severity of symptoms. LS mean change from baseline was calculated using ANCOVA with treatment group and the baseline value as covariates. |
