Glycosphingolipid Inhibition and Spermatogenesis in Man: A Pilot Study
In Brief
A Phase 4 clinical trial evaluating Miglustat (Zavesca) for Contraception. Completed, enrolled 8 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this research study is to help in the development of safe, effective and reversible male contraception. We are examining the impact of the drug Miglustat on sperm production in normal men. We want to see if Miglustat will inhibit sperm production in men and act as a reversible male contraceptive, as a study in mice administered Miglustat showed a reversible inhibition of sperm production. We believe Miglustat may have some potential as a safe, reversible male contraceptive.
