- Aveed, Jatenzo, Kyzatrex, Tlando
- Generic Name
- Testosterone undecanoate
- DrugBank Accession Number
- DB13946
- Background
Testosterone undecanoate is the ester prodrug of testosterone and has a mid-chain fatty acid at the carbon 17β position.6 It was developed via fatty acid esterification of testosterone in order to achieve orally administer testosterone.2 There are oral and intramuscular formulations available for testosterone undecanoate: both formulations are indicated for testosterone replacement therapy in adult males with hypogonadism.6,7,8
Testosterone is a critical male hormone that is responsible for the normal growth and development of the male sex organs and for the maintenance of secondary sex characteristics. Male hypogonadism, resulting from insufficient testosterone secretion, can result symptoms and signs of testosterone deficiency, such as decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, and loss of muscle and bone mass. Testosterone replacement therapy aims to restore the levels of testosterone, thereby improving symptoms and signs of testosterone deficiency.3,6

Pharmacology
- Indication
Testosterone undecanoate is indicated for testosterone replacement therapy in adult males for conditions associated with a deficiency or absence of endogenous testosterone. These conditions include:
- Congenital or acquired primary hypogonadism: testicular failure due to cryptorchidism, bilateral torsion, orchitis, vanishing testis syndrome, orchiectomy, Klinefelter’s syndrome, chemotherapy, or toxic damage from alcohol or heavy metals. These men usually have low serum testosterone concentrations and gonadotropins (follicle-stimulating hormone FSH, luteinizing hormone LH) above the normal range.6,7,8
- Congenital or acquired hypogonadotropic hypogonadism: gonadotropin or luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) deficiency or pituitary-hypothalamic injury from tumors, trauma, or radiation. These men have low testosterone serum concentrations but have gonadotropins in the normal or low range.6,7,8
Testosterone undecanoate is not used to treat age-related hypogonadism.6,7,8

- Pharmacodynamics
Once in circulation, testosterone undecanoate is cleaved to release testosterone, which mediates a range of biological actions. Testosterone is an endogenous male hormone that plays a key role in male sexual differentiation: it is involved in the regulation of hematopoiesis, body composition, and bone metabolism. As a hormone replacement therapy, testosterone undecanoate is an exogenous source of testosterone in males with hypogonadism. Testosterone therapy aims to improve symptoms and signs of testosterone deficiency including decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, and loss of muscle and bone mass.3
Testosterone has a controlled substance in the US due to the abuse potential by athletes and bodybuilders. The use of testosterone at higher doses than recommended can lead to withdrawal symptoms lasting for weeks or months. Withdrawal symptoms include depressed mood, major depression, fatigue, craving, restlessness, irritability, anorexia, insomnia, decreased libido, and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism.6
Testosterone can cause hirsutism, virilization, deepening of the voice, clitoral enlargement, breast atrophy, male-pattern baldness, and menstrual irregularities when administered to women. The use in adolescents can lead to the premature closure of bony epiphyses with termination of growth and precocious puberty.6
- Mechanism of action
Testosterone is a critical male sex hormone that is responsible for the normal growth and development of the male sex organs and the maintenance of secondary sex characteristics, such as the growth and maturation of male sex organs, the development of male hair distribution, vocal cord thickening, and alterations in body musculature and fat distribution. Male hypogonadism, resulting from insufficient testosterone secretion, has two main etiologies: primary hypogonadism is caused by defects in the gonads, whereas secondary hypogonadism is the failure of the hypothalamus (or pituitary) to produce sufficient gonadotropins (FSH and LH).6
In the circulation, testosterone undecanoate is cleaved by endogenous non-specific esterases to release testosterone, the active component of the compound. The undecanoate side chain is pharmacologically inactive.1,6 Testosterone can be further converted by 5α reductase to its more biologically active form, dihydrotestosterone (DHT). The actions of testosterone and DHT are mediated via androgen receptor, which is widely expressed in many tissues, including the bone, muscle, prostate, and adipose tissue. Testosterone binds to androgen receptors with high affinity and regulates target gene transcription involved in the normal growth and development of the male sex organs and the maintenance of secondary sex characteristics.4 Testosterone can cause improved sexual function, increased lean body mass, bone density, erythropoiesis, prostate size, and changes in lipid profiles.3
Target Actions Organism AAndrogen receptor agonistHumans - Absorption
Testosterone undecanoate is a lipophilic molecule that is absorbed into the intestinal lymphatic system after oral administration. It is then released into the general blood circulation by the thoracic duct, thereby bypassing the portal circulation and first-pass metabolism in the liver,2,8 unlike endogenous testosterone.3
Following oral administration of 237 mg twice per day in males with hypogonadism, the mean (SD) Cmax was 1008 (581) ng/dL.7 Tmax is about five hours following oral administration.8 Decreased testosterone exposure was observed when administered without food.7,8
Following intramuscular administration of 750 mg testosterone undecanoate, serum testosterone concentrations reached a maximum after a median of seven days (range of four to 42 days), which then slowly declined. The mean (SD) Cmax was about 90.9 (68.8) ng/dL on the fourth day following injection of testosterone undecanoate. Steady-state serum testosterone concentration was achieved with the third injection at 14 weeks. At 42 days following the injection, testosterone undecanoate was nearly undetectable.6
- Volume of distribution
There is no information available.
- Protein binding
About 40% of circulating testosterone is bound to sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) and about 2% of the drug remains unbound to plasma proteins. The rest is loosely bound to albumin and other plasma proteins.6,7
- Metabolism
Testosterone undecanoate can be reduced to dihydrotestosterone undecanoate via 5α-reductase.8 In the circulation, the ester bond linking testosterone to the undecanoic acid is cleaved by endogenous non-specific esterases.2,6 Like all fatty acids, the undecanoic side chain undergoes β-oxidation to form acetyl coenzyme A (CoA) and, finally, propionyl CoA.2,7
Testosterone is metabolized to various 17-keto steroids through two different pathways to form major active metabolites, estradiol and dihydrotestosterone (DHT).6

- Route of elimination
About 90% of a testosterone dose given intramuscularly is excreted in the urine as glucuronic and sulfuric acid-conjugates of testosterone or as metabolites. About 6% of a dose is excreted in the feces, mostly in the unconjugated form. Inactivation of testosterone occurs primarily in the liver.6
- Half-life
The elimination half-life of testosterone undecanoate is approximately two hours. Once testosterone is formed from testosterone undecanoate, the half life of testosterone can vary and the reported values in the literature remain inconsistent, ranging from 10 to to 100 minutes.6,8 Testosterone undecanoate in castor oil for intramuscular injection had a half life of 33.9 days, allowing it to maintain serum levels in the normal range for over 6 weeks.[A176954]
- Clearance
While there is limited information available, an earlier study reports a metabolic clearance rate of 24.5 mL/min/kg for testosterone following oral administration of 25 mg testosterone and 40 mg testosterone undecanoate in women.5

- Toxicity
The oral LD50 is 4000 mg/kg in mice and rats. The subcutaneous LD50 is 2880 mg/kg in mice and rats.9
There is limited information on testosterone undecanoate overdose. There was one report of acute overdose from an approved injectable testosterone product, which resulted in increased serum testosterone levels of up to 11,400 ng/dL with a cerebrovascular accident.6 There was one case of overdose following administration of oral testosterone undecanoate capsules: this patient inadvertently took a 20% higher dose than the maximum recommended dose but did not report any adverse reactions.7 Overdose should be managed with discontinuation of the drug in combination with appropriate symptomatic and supportive care.6
The abuse of anabolic androgenic steroids can result in serious adverse reactions, such as cardiac arrest, myocardial infarction, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, congestive heart failure, cerebrovascular accident, hepatotoxicity, and psychiatric manifestations, including major depression, mania, paranoia, psychosis, delusions, hallucinations, hostility, and aggression. Men receiving testosterone have experienced transient ischemic attacks, convulsions, hypomania, irritability, dyslipidemias, testicular atrophy, subfertility, and infertility.6
