Antares Pharma Announces Oral Presentation at the 22nd Annual Fall Scientific Meeting of SMSNA
EWING, N.J., Oct. 25, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Antares Pharma, Inc. (NASDAQ: ATRS) (the “Company”), a specialty pharmaceutical company, today announced that an abstract on XYOSTED ® , a subcutaneous testosterone enanthate injection, was accepted as on oral presentation at the 22 nd Annual Fall Scientific Meeting of SMSNA in Scottsdale, AZ on October 21-24, 2021.
The abstract entitled “ Subcutaneous Testosterone Enanthate and the Effect of Body Mass Index on Serum Testosterone in Men with Testosterone Deficiency ” was presented by Martin M. Miner, MD, Men’s Health Center, Miriam Hospital, Providence, RI. The post-hoc analysis evaluated the association between body mass index (“BMI”) and serum total testosterone to assess the pharmacokinetics parameters of XYOSTED ® , a weekly subcutaneous testosterone enanthate treatment, in men with testosterone deficiency and varying BMIs. Dr. Miner concluded that patients with higher BMI may require higher testosterone doses to return serum testosterone to physiological levels.
Dr. Peter Richardson, EVP, Research and Development and Chief Medical Officer of Antares Pharma, commented, “We appreciated the opportunity to highlight analysis of our clinical trial data on XYOSTED at this year’s congress. We believe the multiple dosage strengths (50 mg, 75 mg, 100mg) of XYOSTED can allow patients to be titrated to their optimal dose. As always, we value our engagement with healthcare providers who are committed to patient care.”
