A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Parallel Study With an Open-Label Extension to Assess the Impact of Testosterone Solution on Total Testosterone, Sex Drive and Energy in Hypogonadal Men

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate if testosterone solution can raise
testosterone hormone levels into the normal range, and also improve levels of sexual
arousal, interest and drive and/or energy level, in men with low testosterone and decreased
sexual arousal, interest and drive and/or decreased energy. The study will last about 16
weeks, followed by an optional 24 week open label treatment phase to investigate the long
term safety of testosterone solution.


Inclusion Criteria:

- Total testosterone level <300 nanogram per deciliter (ng/dL) [10.4 nanomole per Liter
(nmol/L)] at each of 2 screening visits

- At least 1 symptom of testosterone deficiency, which must include decreased energy or
decreased sexual drive

- Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) <4 nanogram per milliliter (ng/ml) at screening

Exclusion Criteria:

- Sexual partner who is or becomes pregnant at any time during the study

- Use of long-acting intramuscular (IM) testosterone undecanoate or testosterone
pellets in the 6-month period prior to screening

- Body Mass Index (BMI) >37 kilogram per square meter (kg/m^2) at screening

- Severe lower urinary tract symptoms and/or significant prostate enlargement

- Prolactin lab test result of >30 ng/mL at screening

- Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) >11% at screening

- Hematocrit ≥50% (>54% at elevated altitude) at screening

- Current use of any medications, herbal, and/or nutritional supplements that can
interfere with testosterone

- Dermatologic condition in underarm area that might interfere with testosterone
absorption (for example, eczema) or be exacerbated by topical testosterone
replacement therapy

- Currently receiving treatment with cancer chemotherapy or antiandrogens

- Chronic use of systemic glucocorticoids (use for >14 days within the 3 months prior
to screening); use of non-testosterone anabolic steroids within 12 months prior to
screening

steroids

- History of use of estrogenizing agents within 12 months prior to screening

months prior to screening

- History of frequent opioid use: >1 time/week during any week within 30 days prior to
screening

- Current use of dopamine receptor agonists (cabergoline, pergolide, bromocriptine)

- Have a history of significant central nervous system injuries or disease (including
stroke, spinal cord injury, or multiple sclerosis) within 6 months prior to screening

- Systolic blood pressure >170 or <90 millimeter of mercury (mm Hg) or diastolic blood
pressure >100 or <50 mm Hg at screening or a history of malignant hypertension

- History of unstable angina as defined by Braunwald Classification of Unstable Angina
or angina occurring during sexual intercourse in the last 6 months

- History of any of the following coronary conditions within 90 days of screening:
myocardial infarction, coronary artery bypass graft surgery, percutaneous coronary
intervention (angioplasty or stent placement)

- Have any supraventricular arrhythmia with an uncontrolled ventricular response [mean
heart rate >100 beats per minute (bpm)] at rest, or have any history of spontaneous
or induced sustained ventricular tachycardia (heart rate >100 bpm for ≥30 seconds),
or use of an automatic internal cardioverter-defibrillator

- Have a history of sudden cardiac arrest

- Exhibit any evidence of congestive heart failure [New York Heart Association (NYHA)
Class 2 or above], within 6 months prior to screening

- Have had a new, significant cardiac conduction defect within 90 days prior to
screening

- Clinical suspicion (or history) of prostate cancer during digital rectal examination
at screening

- Known or suspected breast cancer (or history of breast cancer) or other active cancer
(with the exception of nonmelanotic skin cancer)

- Exhibit evidence of severe renal impairment [creatinine clearance <30 milliliter per
minute (mL/min) as determined by the Cockcroft-Gault formula] at screening

- Exhibit a history of severe liver disease or clinical evidence of hepatic impairment
at screening
