Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: The aim of this intervention is to investigate whether Denosumab can improve semen quality in a sub-group of infertile men.;Secondary Objective: Differences in clinical pregnancies, reproductive hormones, and differences in semen quality.;Primary end point(s): Differences in sperm production (sperm concentration millions/mL);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 80 days after intervention | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): - Difference in sperm quality (total number of sperm, total number of motile sperm, percentage of total motile sperm, total number of progressive motile sperm and percentage of progressive motile sperm, total number of morphologically normal sperm and percentage of morphologically normal sperm) - Difference in pregnancies achieved spontaneously or at IUI before day 180. - Difference in the number of live-born children where pregnancy is achieved spontaneously or at IUI before day 180. - Difference in the number of live-born children where pregnancy is achieved by artificial insemination (IVF and ICSI) before day 180. - Difference in the number of spontaneous abortions in the trial period. - Difference in serum levels of reproductive hormones (FSH, LH, AMH, Inhibin B and INSL3) on day 80. - Difference in serum levels of sex hormones (Testosterone, estradiol and SHBG) on day 80. - Difference in endocrine gonadal function (Inhibin B/FSH ratio and testosterone/LH ratio) on day 80.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Day 80, 180 and 450. | — |
