How Testred Affects Patients

Testosterone is a hormone produced in the testes of males and the ovaries, adrenal glands, and other tissues in females. It is an important part of health and wellbeing, helping to boost libido, energy, immune system, and guard against osteoporosis. Males generally produce 20 times as much testosterone as females.

How Testred works in the body

Testosterone works in the body by activating androgen receptors, which are molecules that help to regulate protein production and gene activity. Testosterone is converted into a stronger form, dihydrotestosterone, which binds even more strongly to androgen receptors. This binding triggers a change in the receptor complex, which allows it to enter the nucleus of the cell and bind to specific parts of the DNA. This binding influences how certain genes are expressed, resulting in the testosterone effects in the body.

Clinical Trials for Testred

Leflutrozole for Hypogonadotropic Hypogonadism

18 - 49
Male
Garden City, NY

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate three doses of the drug leflutrozole on improvement of semen quality in men with hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, a condition that affects hormone levels and fertility. It will also study the safety of leflutrozole. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does leflutrozole improve semen quality? * What medical problems do participants experience when taking leflutrozole? Researchers will compare leflutrozole to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug). Participants will: * Take leflutrozole or a placebo orally once a week for 16 weeks. * Visit the clinic every 4 weeks for checkups and tests. * Provide semen samples to measure changes in semen quality. * Have their blood tested to measure hormone levels and ensure safety. * Be monitored for any side effects.

Locomotor Training + Testosterone for Spinal Cord Injury

18+
Male
Gainesville, FL

This pilot study will determine the feasibility of implementing a combinatory rehabilitation strategy involving testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) with locomotor training (LT; walking on a treadmill with assistance and overground walking) in men with testosterone deficiency and walking dysfunction after incomplete or complete spinal cord injury. The investigators hypothesize that LT+TRT treatment will improve muscle size and bone mineral density in men with low T and ambulatory dysfunction after incomplete or complete SCI, along with muscle fundtion and walking recovery in men with T low and ambulatory dysfunction ater incomplete SCI.

Combination Therapy for Breast Cancer

18 - No maximum age
All Sexes
Plantation, FL

This is an open-label, phase I/II double arm study of the SV-BR-1-GM regimen in combination with retifanlimab in patients with metastatic or locally recurrent breast cancer who have failed standard therapy. Patients will receive the SV-BR-1-GM regimen with combination immunotherapy. There will be an initial evaluation of the combination of the SV-BR-1-GM regimen with retifanlimab every 3 weeks. If this is found to be safe and well tolerated in a cohort of at least 12 patients (dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) in less than 30% of the patients evaluated), then an expansion cohort of up to 24 patients will be treated with that combination. These will be randomized to two regimens differing in the timing of checkpoint inhibitor administration.
