Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of the study is to confirm how long (i.e., how many days) it takes to reach steady-state when testosterone undecanoate is administered twice daily.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Serum testosterone levels will be obtained in hypogonadal (serum testosterone \<300 ng/dL) males receiving testosterone undecanoate capsules administered twice daily. Serum samples will be obtained consecutively in the morning on several days during one month of open-label treatment to confirm the time at which steady-state is reached.
