Randomized Controlled Trial
The Oxytocin Antagonist Cligosiban Prolongs Intravaginal Ejaculatory Latency and Improves Patient-Reported Outcomes in Men with Lifelong Premature Ejaculation: Results of a Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Proof-of-Concept Trial (PEPIX).
Cligosiban is an orally administered oxytocin receptor antagonist being developed to treat premature ejaculation (PE). ⋯ Cligosiban was well tolerated, and resulted in significant benefits in both objective and subjective measures of ejaculatory control in men with lifelong PE and therefore offers significant potential as an on-demand, orally administered agent for the treatment of PE.

Randomized Controlled Trial
The Oxytocin Antagonist Cligosiban Fails to Prolong Intravaginal Ejaculatory Latency in Men with Lifelong Premature Ejaculation: Results of a Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Phase IIb trial (PEDRIX).
Cligosiban is an orally administered, centrally penetrant oxytocin receptor antagonist being developed to treat premature ejaculation (PE). ⋯ Cligosiban was well tolerated but failed to demonstrate efficacy for the treatment of men with lifelong PE at doses up to 1200 mg.

Multisystem functional gains have been reported in males with spinal cord injury (SCI) after undergoing activity-based training (ABT), including increases in scoring of sexual function and reports of improved erectile function. ⋯ These results indicate that task-specific stepping and/or loading provide sensory input to the spinal cord impacting the neural circuitry responsible for sexual function.
