ISSUE Two recent studies identify a possible risk of increased cardiovascular events in men receiving testosterone therapy. FDA continues to evaluate this association between testosterone treatment and increased risk of stroke, heart attack, or death, but has not yet reached a firm conclusion. 1 II. BACKGROUND Testosterone use is indicated for men with testosterone deficiency associated with a medical condition, such as genetic problems, chemotherapy, or other biochemical disorders affecting the production of testosterone by the testicles. Low testosterone levels in the absence of a medical condition are not an approved indication for testosterone products. FDA-approved testosterone formulations consist of a topical gel, transdermal patch, buccal system (applied to upper gum or inner cheek), and injection. III. DISCUSSION Two publications have prompted FDA to reassess the cardiovascular safety of testosterone therapy. One observational study looking at elderly men in the U.S. Veteran Affairs health system who underwent coronary angiography to assess for coronary artery disease and had a low serum testosterone suggested a 30 percent increase in risk for stroke, heart attack, and death in the group that received testosterone therapy compared to the group that did not receive any testosterone therapy. Many of these patients had underlying cardiovascular disease. 2 Another observational study reported an increased risk of heart attack in older men (two-fold increase in the risk of heart attack among men aged 65 years and older within 90 days after initial prescription), as well as in younger men with pre-existing heart disease (a two-to three-fold increase in the risk of heart attack within 90 days after initial prescription). Younger men with no history of heart disease who received a prescription for testosterone did not demonstrate an increased risk of heart attack.", "link"=>"http://www.mendeley.com/research/testosterone-products-cardiovascular-safety-national-pbm-bulletin-department-veterans-affairs-vetera", "reader_count"=>3, "reader_count_by_academic_status"=>{"Professor > Associate Professor"=>1, "Student > Postgraduate"=>1, "Student > Bachelor"=>1}, "reader_count_by_user_role"=>{"Professor > Associate Professor"=>1, "Student > Postgraduate"=>1, "Student > Bachelor"=>1}, "reader_count_by_subject_area"=>{"Medicine and Dentistry"=>2, "Chemical Engineering"=>1}, "reader_count_by_subdiscipline"=>{"Medicine and Dentistry"=>{"Medicine and Dentistry"=>2}, "Chemical Engineering"=>{"Chemical Engineering"=>1}}, "group_count"=>0}

High hematocrit and estradiol are more common in older men on testosterone since testosterone related aromatization and erythrocytosis are worse in that population.

As with some other studies that 'showed' that testosterone therapy might increase risk of heart related problems, there was no data included regarding the level of fitness of the test subjects.\n\nThe doubling of risk for men over 65, quoted without allowing for level of fitness, makes the report useless.\n\nHere is my reasoning.\n\nGiven:\n\na) Men over 65 have been living with increasingly lower testosterone levels for nearly 25 years\n\nb) A lot of men over 65 live fairly sedentary lives. \n\nWhile a) and b) are related, the relationship is not as strong. The on-set of sedentary behavior in seniors has many other causes. However, the significance of sedentary behavior is paramount to fitness levels. Testosterone therapy will increase the desire of the patient to get active as they rapidly begin to feel more vigorous. If they were sedentary before the beginning of the therapy, the suddenly increased physical activity may precipitate dangerous levels stress to the cardiovascular system since fitness does not return quickly to people over 65.\n\nDue to this apparent oversight I am forced to conclude that this study is incomplete. Without that data it is impossible to tell if the increased rate of heart related problems was strictly caused by the testosterone, or from the secondary effect of increased physical activity.\n\nIn my opinion it is premature of the research team to have released this report without that correlation included, as the treatment of the two scenarios is completely different.

If possible, the study should be extended to examine the effect of concomitant primary preventative aspirin, adjunctive aromatase inhibitor therapy, and daily use of tadalafil. Each of these drugs could substantially alter the effect of testosterone on cardiovascular events. Testosterone increases human platelet thromboxane A2 receptor density and aggregation responses (1). The latter effect would likely be attenuated by aspirin's suppression of thromboxane A2 formation. Hence, the reported results may overstate the adverse effects of testosterone for those taking aspirin while understating it for those not taking aspirin. Similarly, patients taking adjunctive aromatase inhibitors may experience a lesser effect on cardiovascular events due to decreased metabolism of exogenous testosterone to estradiol, which has been positively correlated with cardiovascular disease (2). Finally, there is evidence that daily tadalafil may block some potentially deleterious vascular effects of testosterone's metabolite, dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT promotes endothelial vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM) expression and increases human monocyte adhesion to the vascular endothelium (3,4) whereas daily tadalafil causes a robust and sustained decline in VCAM, endothelin-1, and CRP.(5) With mounting evidence of increased cardiovascular risk with exogenous testosterone administration alone, it is time to look at the effects of these combined regimins - particularly those that are already in common use.\n\n-Woodrow Gandy, MD\n\n(1) Ajayi AA, Mathur R, Halushka PV.

The cause of erectile dysfunction in the vast majority will be vascular-related rather than hormonal-related. Even if these patients really have low level of testosterone, then the treatment should involve testosterone replacement rather than PDE5i. I think it would be logical to think that the majority of the patients in the PDE5i group have normal testosterone level to start off with, if not all of them.\n\nIf we look into the literature about the effect of testosterone on myocardial infarction, one of the big areas will be the use of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in the treatment of prostate cancer. ADT either in the form of bilateral orchiectomy or gonadotrophin releasing hormone analogue reduces the testosterone level into a castration level. And it has been shown by many studies that this will increase the risk of diabetes, myocardial infarction and stroke. It would therefore be quite unfair to comment that the use of TT will increase the risk of myocardial infarction, given the fact that all these patients have low testosterone level to start off with, which means that they are already predisposed to the risk of myocardial infarction even before starting the treatment. On the other hand, in the PDE5i group, since the majority of the cause of erectile dysfunction is vascular-related, these patients are also predisposed to myocardial infarction. This makes the comparison between the TT group and the PDE5i group even more complicated.\n\nAlthough this is a large-scale study with significant findings, I would say that the results have to be interpreted with caution and further studies on the effect of testosterone on myocardial infarction will be needed. \n", "isRemoved"=>false, "created"=>"2014-02-05T23:49:45Z", "lastModified"=>"2014-02-05T23:49:45Z", "creator"=>{"userId"=>"403127"}, "highlightedText"=>"", "competingInterestStatement"=>{"creatorWasPrompted"=>true, "hasCompetingInterests"=>false}, "parentArticle"=>{"doi"=>"info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0085805", "state"=>"published", "journals"=>{"PLoSONE"=>{"journalKey"=>"PLoSONE", "eIssn"=>"1932-6203", "title"=>"PLOS ONE"}}}, "replyTreeSize"=>0, "mostRecentActivity"=>"2014-02-05T23:49:45Z", "replies"=>[]}

Comparing cardiac risks in a group of men with low testosterone, a known major risk factor for heart disease, to men on Cialis® or Viagra® is incommensurate. This “cohort” study should be considered associative at best. \n\nWhat is disturbing is all the sensationalism surrounding these findings by “medical staff writers” who have reported findings as though definitive. Their lack of medical knowledge and skills to interpret the data is obvious and leads to very subjective and biased reporting. \n\nClearly ignored in these recent “news” articles are the documented benefits of testosterone therapy including cardiac protection as well as a lack of cardiovascular events documented in two well-designed meta-analyses of prospective, controlled trials [2,3]. \n\nFurthermore, over 80% of published epidemiologic studies are later disproven or shown to be false [4]. The known physiologic effects of testosterone at the androgen receptor and the lack of biologic plausibility make this a likely outcome in this case. Most importantly, many higher quality studies and trials have supported the benefits and safety of testosterone therapy in both men and women. \n\nIs there another way to explain the purported ‘finding’ in the unlikely case that is was valid? \n\nAromatization of testosterone to estradiol is rarely addressed in studies on testosterone and was not addressed in this study, even though patients with heart disease have many risk factors for increased aromatase activity: age, obesity, sedentary life style, insulin resistance and medications (statins, cardiac and anti-hypertensive medications) [5]. Side effects from increased local aromatization to estradiol (which is immeasurable in serum), including fluid retention, weight gain and edema, may potentially have adverse cardiovascular effects [6,7,8]. However, these are easily prevented with the use of low dose aromatase inhibitors [9,10]. Interestingly, some, albeit not all, studies in men have shown an increased risk of myocardial infarction with elevated estradiol or a high estradiol/testosterone ratio; this is not necessarily causal and should be approached with caution [11-18]. The confounders (e.g., age, obesity, sedentary life style, insulin resistance and medications), associated with low testosterone and increased aromatization to estradiol, are most likely causative. \n\nAs with many cohort studies there are severe methodical limitations including selection bias and lack of a suitable control group. As physicians and scientists, we should not ignore these results but rather keep them in perspective and, as suggested by the FDA, investigate them further with properly designed studies that also address signs and symptoms of aromatization as well as confounding variables.\n\nReferences\n\n1.\tFinkle WD, Greenland S, Ridgeway GK, Adams… JL.

Specifically, in the group of men given testosterone, we compared their rate of myocardial infarction in the year prior to their first prescription to their rate in the 90 day period following their first prescription. This resulted in the 2 to 3-fold increased risks reported. We then evaluated the risk of myocardial infarction during the period from 91 to 180 days after the first prescription in the subgroup of men who did not refill their prescription, a time period during which they likely took little or no testosterone.

Exogenous testosterone not only raises the level of serum testosterone but also the level of serum estradiol. The failure of the authors to monitor and control estradiol levels is a serious defect in their research.\n\nHigher endogenous levels of estradiol, but not testosterone, are associated with an increased incidence of coronary heart disease in men.[3] Also, for elderly men receiving exogenous testosterone, those who experienced adverse cardiovascular events had serum estradiol levels which were on average more than 1.9 times higher than for those who did not.[4]\n\nTestosterone is known to increase the risk of polycythemia. When hematocrit levels were monitored and kept at a safe level, no increase in adverse cardiovascular events were observed[5]. It is possible that testosterone therapy does in fact increase the risk of adverse cardiovascular events in men, but until researchers monitor both estradiol and hematocrit levels and keep them both at the safest levels possible, it is impossible to come to such a conclusion. \n\nReferences\n\n1.

We compared the incidence rate of MI in the 90 days following the initial prescription (post-prescription interval) with the rate in the one year prior to the initial prescription (pre-prescription interval) (post/pre). We also compared post/pre rates in a cohort of men prescribed phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors (PDE5I; sildenafil or tadalafil, N = 167,279), and compared TT prescription post/pre rates with the PDE5I post/pre rates, adjusting for potential confounders using doubly robust estimation.</p><p>Results</p><p>In all subjects, the post/pre-prescription rate ratio (RR) for TT prescription was 1.36 (1.03, 1.81). In men aged 65 years and older, the RR was 2.19 (1.27, 3.77) for TT prescription and 1.15 (0.83, 1.59) for PDE5I, and the ratio of the rate ratios (RRR) for TT prescription relative to PDE5I was 1.90 (1.04, 3.49). The RR for TT prescription increased with age from 0.95 (0.54, 1.67) for men under age 55 years to 3.43 (1.54, 7.56) for those aged ≥75 years (p_trend = 0.03), while no trend was seen for PDE5I (p_trend = 0.18). In men under age 65 years, excess risk was confined to those with a prior history of heart disease, with RRs of 2.90 (1.49, 5.62) for TT prescription and 1.40 (0.91, 2.14) for PDE5I, and a RRR of 2.07 (1.05, 4.11).</p><p>Discussion</p><p>In older men, and in younger men with pre-existing diagnosed heart disease, the risk of MI following initiation of TT prescription is substantially increased.</p></div>", "links"=>[], "tags"=>["cardiovascular", "Myocardial infarction", "Clinical research design", "Cohort studies", "epidemiology", "Drugs and devices", "Pharmacoepidemiology", "Endocrinology", "Endocrine physiology", "hormones", "Cardiovascular disease epidemiology", "oncology", "Cancer treatment", "Hormonal therapy", "non-fatal", "myocardial", "infarction", "testosterone"], "article_id"=>917854, "categories"=>["Medicine"], "users"=>["William D.
