Methods of treating a liver disease or condition, or a symptom thereof, in a subject in need of treatment, are disclosed and described. One method comprises orally administering to a subject, a pharmaceutical composition having an amount of a testosterone, or an ester thereof, sufficient to treat the liver disease or condition, or symptom thereof.

Liver disease

Disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions and oral dosage forms including capsules containing (17-β)-3-oxoandrost-4-en-17-yl tridecanoate, and related methods. The capsule fill can include an additive and about 14 wt % to about 42 wt % for androst-4-en-17β-ol-3-one esters that comprise (17-β)-3-oxoandrost-4-en-17-yl tridecanoate or a combination of (17-β)-3-oxoandrost-4-en-17-yl undecanoate, (17-β)-3-oxoandrost-4-en-dodecanoate, and (17-β)-3-oxoandrost-4-en-17-yl tridecanoate. A single oral administration to a male subject of one or more dosage forms with a total androst-4-en-17β-ol-3-one equivalent dose of about 150 mg to about 895 mg is provided. In another embodiment, a method for providing a serum concentration of androst-4-en-17β-ol-3-one within a target PK performance for a male subject is provided. In a further embodiment, the pharmaceutical compositions and methods comprising androst-4-en-17β-ol-3-one ester loading of 14 wt % to 42 wt % achieve androst-4-en-17β-ol-3-one PK performance targets and require titration(s) to show therapeutic effectiveness for treatment of hypogonadism.

Oral (17-ß)-3-oxoandrost-4-en-17-yl tridecanoate therapy

Disclosed are methods and compositions for testosterone replacement therapy, especially for use in administration to hypogonadal males. The methods and compositions employ a fixed dose dosing regimen that does not require titration or dose adjustments and that can provide a therapeutically effective amount of a non-undecanoate testosterone ester while avoiding unacceptably high testosterone levels.

Oral testosterone non-undecanoate therapy

The present disclosure provides methods and compositions for testosterone replacement therapy. The methods and compositions employ a fixed dose dosing regimen that does not require titration or dose adjustments and that can provide a therapeutically effective amount of a testosterone ester while avoiding unacceptably high testosterone levels.

Oral testosterone undecanoate therapy

The present disclosure is drawn to compositions and methods for treating CNS disorders. In one embodiment, an oral pharmaceutical composition can comprise a therapeutically effective amount of pregn-4-ene-3,20-dione; and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier that provides formation of either 3&#x3b1;-OH-5&#x3b1;-pregnan-20-one, or 3&#x3b1;-OH-5&#x3b2;-pregnan-20-one, or both in an amount sufficient to treat a CNS disorder when orally administered to a subject. In another embodiment, a method of treating a CNS disorder can comprise orally administering to a subject, a therapeutically effective amount of pregn-4-ene-3,20-dione that provides an amount of GABA receptor binding pregn-4-ene-3,20-dione metabolites that is sufficient to treat the CNS disorder. In another embodiment, a method of treating a CNS disorder can comprise orally administering to the subject, a therapeutically effective amount of pregn-4-ene-3,20-dione that provides an amount of 3&#x3b1;-OH-5&#x3b1;-pregnan-20-one, or 3&#x3b1;-OH-5&#x3b2;-pregnan-20-one, or both that is sufficient to treat the CNS disorder.

Compositions and methods for treating CNS disorders

Disclosed are effective fixed dose oral testosterone undecanoate compositions for use in regimens without dose titration and methods for treatment of patients in need of testosterone replacement therapy. Also disclosed are criteria for continuation and discontinuation of such regimens, based on single serum T concentration levels measured at a steady state at predetermined times after initiation of said regimen and at a predetermined number of hours after administration of a morning dose of the regimen.

Fixed dose oral testosterone undecanoate compositions and use thereof

Disclosed are bioavailable solid state (17-&#x3b2;)-3-Oxoandrost-4-en-17-yl dodecanoate compositions and methods of use in administration to mammals in need of thereof. The (17-&#x3b2;)-3-Oxoandrost-4-en-17-yl dodecanoate is preferably provided in a solid state crystalline form having a plurality of peaks corresponding to the peaks shown in FIG., a plurality of crystallites ranging in size from about 40 nm to about 60 nm based as identified via powder x-ray diffraction spectra, and a melting point in the range of about 51&#xb0; C. to about 63&#xb0; C. The compositions may be provided in oral or injectable administration form for the treatment of conditions such as in need of testosterone therapy. An exemplary chemical structure of a (17-&#x3b2;)-3-Oxoandrost-4-en-17-yl dodecanoate composition disclosed herein is as follows:
