ENGLEWOOD, CO / October 16, 2019 / Aytu BioScience, Inc. (NASDAQ:AYTU), a specialty pharmaceutical company focused on commercializing novel products that address significant patient needs, today announced that it will release data from the Natesto® Spermatogenesis Study tomorrow, October 17, 2019, before the market opens. The clinical trial results are being presented today as part of the “Late Breaking” Abstract Session at the 75th Annual American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) Scientific Conference in Philadelphia, PA. This presentation is one of only six presentations featured during the “Late Breaking” session.
The investigator-initiated study investigating the impact of nasally-administered Natesto on preservation of fertility parameters is being conducted at the University of Miami’s Department of Urology, and Dr. Ranjith Ramasamy, MD, the Director of Reproductive Urology, is the study’s principal investigator. This single-site, prospective study has evaluated hypogonadal men, ages 18 to 55, completing up to six months of Natesto treatment to restore clinically low serum testosterone (T) levels with the goal of maintaining sperm concentration, motility, and total motile sperm count.
