About CompleoTRT™
CompleoTRT™ is designed to represent a significant advancement in the treatment of male hypogonadism, or low testosterone - commonly known as "Low T". CompleoTRT™'s unique delivery technology is designed to provide patients with the therapeutic effect of supplementing testosterone levels while doing so with a small amount of drug in the form of a bio-adhesive intranasal gel.
CompleoTRT™'s intranasal no-touch delivery system is designed to avoid the risk of accidental transfer (secondary transference) of testosterone to spouses or other family members, thus offering unique patient benefits and improved safety as compared to other currently marketed products indicated to treat "Low T". Moreover, CompleoTRT™ is designed to avoid the negative effects from first-pass metabolism on the product, liver, or both.
Since Trimel took over development in May 2009, CompleoTRT™ has been optimized to meet FDA regulatory requirements, including the development of a no-touch applicator device that is designed to ensure that CompleoTRT™ is dosed accurately and discretely. Trimel's research program to date has demonstrated that CompleoTRT™ is safe and effective, having recorded over 10,000 drug exposures in the studies conducted thus far in the United States.
About Hypogonadism ("Low T")
Subject to FDA approval, Trimel's lead product candidate, CompleoTRT™, would be indicated for the treatment of male hypogonadism or low testosterone - commonly known as "Low T."
