Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: For the overall study period (12-month double-blind alendronate [ALN]- controlled study period followed by the open-label ALN study period) • To assess the effect of AMG 785 treatment for 12 months followed by ALN treatment compared with ALN treatment alone on the subject incidence of clinical fracture (nonvertebral fracture and clinical vertebral fracture) in women with PMO • To assess the effect of AMG 785 treatment for 12 months followed by ALN treatment compared with ALN treatment alone on the subject incidence of new vertebral fracture in women with PMO;Secondary Objective: To assess the effect of AMG 785 treatment for 12 months followed by ALN treatment compared with ALN treatment alone on: • Subject incidence of fractures (all fractures [nonvertebral fractures and new vertebral fractures], new or worsening vertebral fracture, nonvertebral fracture, major nonvertebral fracture [pelvis, distal femur, proximal tibia, ribs, proximal humerus, forearm, and hip], hip fracture, and multiple new or worsening vertebral fracture) • Percent changes in Dual energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA) bone mineral density (BMD) at the lumbar spine, total hip, and femoral neck To assess the effect of AMG 785 treatment for 12 months compared with ALN treatment on: • Subject incidence of fractures (clinical fracture [nonvertebral fracture and clinical vertebral fracture], new vertebral fracture, all fractures [nonvertebral fractures and new vertebral fractures]);Primary end point(s): During the overall study period (12-month double-blind ALN-controlled study period followed by the open label ALN study period) • Subject incidence of clinical fracture (nonvertebral fracture and clinical vertebral fracture) at primary analysis • Subject incidence of new vertebral fracture through Month 24;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 12 months

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Month 12 and 24;Secondary end point(s): During the overall study period (12-month double-blind ALN-controlled study period followed by the open-label ALN study period) • Subject incidence of nonvertebral fracture at primary analysis • Subject incidence of all fractures (nonvertebral fracture and new vertebral fracture) at primary analysis • Subject incidence of new or worsening vertebral fracture through Month 24 • Subject incidence of major nonvertebral fracture (pelvis, distal femur, proximal tibia, ribs, proximal humerus, forearm, and hip) at primary analysis • Subject incidence of hip fracture at primary analysis • Subject incidence of multiple new or worsening vertebral fractures through Month 24 • Percent change from baseline in BMD at the lumbar spine, total hip, and femoral neck at Months 24 and 36 During the 12-month double-blind ALN-controlled study period • Subject incidence of clinical fracture (nonvertebral fracture and clinical vertebral fracture) through Month 12 • Subject incidence of new vertebral fracture through Month 12 • Subject incidence of all fractures (nonvertebral fracture and new vertebral fracture) through Month 12 • Percent change from baseline in BMD at the lumbar spine, total hip and femoral neck at Month 12
