Purpose
Approximately 4 to 5 million men in the U.S. are testosterone-deficient. Enclomiphene (trans-clomiphene) citrate (Androxal) was evaluated to determine if Androxal increased serum testosterone levels in men with secondary hypogonadism. Subjects were randomly assigned to 1 of 4 treatments groups. Appropriate amounts of medications were dispensed at each visit. Subjects took their medications orally or by rubbing it onto the skin (depending on the treatment assignment) once daily for up to 6 months. Treatment visits occurred at approximately 4-week intervals for Months 1, 2, and 3 and then at 6-week intervals for Months 4, 5, and 6.

| Official Title: | A Phase III, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Open-Label, Active-Controlled Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Androxal™ Treatment in Men With Secondary Hypogonadism |
- Evaluate the safety of Androxal™ administered in men with secondary hypogonadism [ Time Frame: Six months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
- Demonstrate that treatment of men with secondary hypogonadism with Androxal™ was non-inferior to treatment with the active control, AndroGel® [ Time Frame: Six months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
