Proof of concept analysis
Assuming that treatment maintains LBM over 6 months, a sample size of 25 per group is required to achieve a significance difference 1.6kg LBM at 0.05 significance with 80% power between treatment and placebo. The present study sample size allows for a 10% drop out.

Summary
Brief summary
The primary purpose of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy of oral testosterone for the prevention and treatment of sarcopenia in men with prostate cancer on Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT).

Who is it for?
You may be eligible to participate in this trial if you are aged 18 or over and have been diagnosed with prostate cancer, for which you are undergoing ADT.

Study details
All participants enrolled in this study will be randomly allocated (by chance) to receive either oral testosterone once per day for six months, or to receive an inactive sham tablet once per day for six months. All participants will be reviewed for sarcopenia by assessment of muscle mass with DEXA at six months, and for prostate cancer progression by PSA.

It is hoped that the findings from this trial will provide information on the efficacy of oral testosterone for the prevention of sarcopenia in patients commencing ADT and the reversal of sarcopenia in patients on long term ADT, whilst evaluating whether this treatment has any impact on prostate cancer progression.
