Summary

We investigated the effect of BCH 069 (similar structure as thymopentin) on concentrations of hormones of the hypophysis, adrenals, gonads and thyroid glands in men after a therapy period of 4 or 6 weeks. No significant effects of BCH 069 three times weekly 50 mg s.c. for 4 weeks or i.v. for 6 weeks on serum concentrations of prolactin, LH, TSH, cortisol, testosterone, progesterone, estradiol and ETR were observed.
