Abstract / Summary

Subcutaneous bremelanotide (a melanocortin receptor agonist closely related to Melanotan-II) produced statistically significant improvements in erectile response in men who had failed sildenafil therapy.

Methods

Investigated as a clinical (randomized double-blind, men with erectile dysfunction) in the field of dermatological research. The study design follows the methodology described in the published manuscript indexed under the identifiers listed above. Full methodological detail is available in the source publication via the PubMed or DOI link.

Results

Subcutaneous bremelanotide (a melanocortin receptor agonist closely related to Melanotan-II) produced statistically significant improvements in erectile response in men who had failed sildenafil therapy.

Limitations

Bremelanotide is a related but distinct molecule; results do not directly establish efficacy or safety of Melanotan-II itself.
