The present invention provides stable pharmaceutical compositions, comprising a pharmaceutically effective amount of testosterone or a pharmaceutically acceptable ester thereof, a pharmaceutically acceptable oil vehicle, and a stabilizing amount of benzyl alcohol, for example, about 1% to 3% weight/volume of benzyl alcohol. The present invention also provides a process for stabilizing testosterone-containing pharmaceutical compositions by ageing them at a temperature of about 20° C. to about 60° C. for at least 48 hours, e.g., prior to secondary packing and labeling. These compositions were stable over the shelf life of the product, without exhibiting crystal formation, even upon storing at temperatures of about 2° C. to about 8° C. Other aspects of the invention relate to methods for making such pharmaceutical compositions, and methods of using such pharmaceutical compositions for hormone replacement therapy, e.g., in a male patient having a condition associated with symptoms of deficiency or absence of endogenous testosterone.

Disclosed are a phthalazinone compound, and a preparation method therefor and the medical use thereof. In particular, disclosed are a compound as represented by formula (I), and a pharmacodynamically acceptable salt, and the use of the compound as an androgen receptor (AR) for degradation.

Provided herein are steroid containing compositions suitable for providing therapeutically effective amounts of at least one steroid to individuals. Also provided herein are compositions comprising testosterone and/or testosterone derivatives suitable for providing therapeutically effective and safe amounts of testosterone over periods of time. Further provided are methods of treating andro- and/or testosterone deficiency in individuals by administering to the individuals compositions described herein.

A drug delivery system for oral administration of hydrophobic drugs with enhanced and extended absorption and improved pharmacokinetics is provided. In one embodiment, formulations comprising testosterone and testosterone esters, e.g., testosterone palmitate, are disclosed. Methods of treating a hormone deficiency or effecting male contraception with the inventive formulations are also provided.

A pharmaceutical formulation of testosterone undecanoate is provided. Methods of treating a testosterone deficiency or its symptoms with the inventive formulations are also provided.

The present invention relates to solid forms of (S)—N-(4-cyano-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-3-(4-cyanophenoxy)-2-hydroxy-2-methylpropanamide and process for producing the same.

Liquid polymer pharmaceutical compositions with a biodegradable liquid polyester that has a carboxylic acid end group, a biocompatible solvent, and an active pharmaceutical agent are useful for administration into the body to provide extended long term release of the drug.
