[B]All capsule strengths also contain [U]oleic acid[/U], [U]polyoxyl 40 hydrogenated castor oil (Cremophor RH 40)[/U], [U]borage seed oil[/U], [U]peppermint oil[/U], and butylated hydroxytoluene as inactive ingredients. Gelatin capsule shells are composed of the following inactive ingredients: Gelatin, sorbitol, glycerin, purified water, iron oxide red, FD&C Yellow #6, and titanium dioxide.[/B][/I] [B]12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY 12.3 Pharmacokinetics Absorption[/B] [I]JATENZO delivers physiologic amounts of testosterone, producing testosterone concentrations that approximate normal concentrations seen in healthy men. [B]JATENZO was taken orally at a starting dose of 237 mg twice per day with meals in a multicenter, open-label, randomized, 2-arm, active-controlled trial in hypogonadal males. The dose was adjusted, as needed, on Days 14 and 56 between a minimum of 158 mg twice per day and a maximum of 396 mg twice per day based on the average plasma testosterone concentration obtained over 24 hours after the morning dose. [/B][U][B]The average daily NaF-EDTA plasma testosterone concentration was 403 (± 128) ng/dL at the end of treatment, whereas the normal eugonadal range in NaF-EDTA plasma was 252-907 ng/dL in this study[/B][/U][B]. [/B]Note that the titration scheme for use in clinical practice is based on serum total testosterone [see Dosage and Administration (2.2)].[/I] [B]Table 3 summarizes the pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters for plasma total testosterone in patients completing at least 105 days of JATENZO treatment administered twice daily.[/B] [ATTACH type="full" alt="Screenshot (16429).png"]24716[/ATTACH] [B]Figure 2 summarizes the mean plasma total testosterone profile for the patients at the final PK visit[/B] [ATTACH type="full" alt="Screenshot (16430).png"]24717[/ATTACH] [B][I]When JATENZO was dosed with different breakfasts containing various amounts of fat, the bioavailability with the 30 g fat, 45 g fat, and high-calorie high-fat breakfasts was comparable, but there was a food effect with the 15 g fat breakfast compared to the 30 g fat breakfast. [U]The 15 g fat breakfast had a 25% decrease in testosterone exposure compared to the 30 g fat breakfast[/U].[/I] 14 CLINICAL STUDIES 14.1 Clinical Trials in Hypogonadal Males [/B] [I]The efficacy and safety of JATENZO were evaluated in 166 adult hypogonadal males in an open-label study of approximately 4 months duration (NCT02722278). The study included a Screening Phase, a Treatment Titration Phase, and a Treatment Maintenance Phase. JATENZO was taken orally at a starting dose of 237 mg twice per day with meals. The dose was adjusted on Days 21 and 56 between a minimum of 158 mg twice per day and a maximum of 396 mg twice per day on the basis of the average testosterone concentration obtained over 24 hours post-morning dose. The primary endpoint was the percentage of patients with mean plasma total testosterone concentration (Cavg) over 24 hours within the normal eugonadal range on the final PK visit of the study. [/I] [B][I][U]Secondary endpoints were the percentage of patients with a maximum total testosterone concentration (Cmax) above three predetermined limits[/U]: less than or equal to 1500 ng/dL, between 1800 and 2500 ng/dL, and greater than 2500 ng/dL. [/I][/B] [I]One hundred and forty-five (87%) of the 166 hypogonadal men who received JATENZO had a mean total testosterone concentration (Cavg) within the normal eugonadal range at the end of treatment. [U][B]The percentage of patients who received JATENZO and had Cmax less than or equal to 1500 ng/dL[/B][/U][B], between 1800 and 2500 ng/dL, and greater than 2500 ng/dL at the final PK visit were [U]83%[/U], 3%, and 3%, respectively. [/B]Note that the testosterone concentrations were not measured in serum but the effects of different sample preparation conditions were accounted for in the data analysis of the results shown here. The titration scheme for use in clinical practice is based on serum total testosterone [see Dosage and Administration (2.2)].[/I] [/QUOTE]
