Percentage Change in Total Hip Bone Mineral Density BMD at Year 6 (Baseline) and Year 9

Bone Mineral Density (BMD) measured by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA). DXA consists of two X-ray beams with different energy levels that are aimed at the patient's bones. When soft tissue absorption is subtracted out, the BMD can be determined from the absorption of each beam by bone. Percentage change from Year 6 = 100\*(Year 9 - Year 6)/Year 6.

Time frame: Year 6 (baseline) and Year 9

Population: The modified intent-to-treat (MITT) population included all patients in the ITT population who had DXA measurements of the total hip at Visit 11 (Year 6) and Visit 15 (Year 9). This was the primary population for the primary efficacy parameter.

Percentage Change of Total Hip Bone Mineral Density (BMD) at Year 7 and 8 Compared to Year 6

Bone Mineral Density (BMD) measured by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA). DXA consists of two X-ray beams with different energy levels that are aimed at the patient's bones. When soft tissue absorption is subtracted out, the BMD can be determined from the absorption of each beam by bone. Percentage change from Year 6 = 100\*(Year 9 - Year 6)/Year 6.

Time frame: Year 6 (extension 2 baseline), Year 7, Year 8

Population: The intent-to-treat (ITT) population included all patients who were enrolled in the extension study at Visit 12. This included patients who were randomized to Z9 and Z6P3 groups. n = the number of patients with measurements at Year 6 and follow-up visits as determined by the analysis window.
