Study Summary

Deficiency of testosterone, growth hormone, or both hormones can result in osteoporosis. If either hormone is replaced, the condition of the bones improves. The purpose of this study is to determine if dual hormone treatment for men deficient in testosterone and growth hormone improves bone structure more than testosterone treatment alone.

Primary Outcome

Increased bone volume fraction (the fraction of bone that is bone, as opposed to the fraction that is marrow), as determined by magnetic resonance of the distal tibia

Interventions

  • DRUG Testosterone plus somatropin
  • DRUG testosterone
