Bone Histomorphometry: Activation Frequency
Bone biopsy samples were prepared according to standard procedures for bone histomorphometry. A double tetracycline labeling procedure was used to allow visualization and quantification of sites of new bone formation. Tetracycline was given for two periods of 3 days separated by 14 days where no tetracycline was taken. The average time that it takes for a new remodeling cycle to begin on any point on a cancellous surface is called the activation frequency. Activation frequency is calculated as the bone formation rate / wall width.

Percent Change From Study 20030216 Baseline in Total Hip BMD by Visit
Total hip bone mineral density was measured by dual x-ray absorptiometry (DXA). DXA scans were analyzed by a central imaging center. Measurements at some time points during the core study 20030216 were only taken in a subset of participants.
Time frame: Study 20030216 baseline and extension study months 12, 24, 36, 60 and 84
Population: Participants with an Extension Study baseline and at least 1 post-baseline DXA BMD measurement. n indicates the number of participants with available data at each time point.

Serum Denosumab Concentration
Serum concentrations of denosumab were measured by a validated conventional sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) was 0.8 ng/mL. Values of 0 in the table below indicate data below the lower limit of quantification.
Time frame: Baseline (pre-dose in extension study), day 10, and Months 3, 4 and 6 (pre-dose)
Population: Participants who participated in the Study 20030216 PK substudy, for whom dosing information was not missing and for whom sampling was within 14 days of specified sampling times.
