Conditions

Postmenopausal Osteoporosis

Keywords

Osteoporosis, Postmenopausal

Brief summary

This study will determine whether treatment with AMG 162 can prevent lumbar spine bone loss in both early and late postmenopausal women with osteopenia, and to further test the safety and tolerability of AMG 162 in this population.

Interventions

60 mg/mL denosumab given day 1, month 6, month 12 and month 18

DRUGPlacebo

Placebo given at day 1, month 6, month 12 and month 18
