Study Summary

This is a large randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to determine the efficacy of testosterone replacement on cancer-related fatigue in older men with solid or hematologic (blood) cancer who report fatigue and have low testosterone levels.

Primary Outcome

Primary outcome is change in fatigue score. Fatigue will be assessed by the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy fatigue scale (FACIT-Fatigue)- The FACIT-Fatigue has been widely used in studies related to cancer-related fatigue and is able to detect clinically meaningful differences in fatigue scores in response to treatment. Population norms for the FACIT are also available, facilitating the interpretation of fatigue levels in patient populations. This instrument has been well-valid
