Recruitment details
This study was conducted at 222 centers in Europe, Central/Latin America, Asia, North America, and Australia/New Zealand. The first participant enrolled on 15 March 2012 and the last participant enrolled on 06 December 2013.
Pre-assignment details
Participants were randomized 1:1 to receive either romosozumab 210 mg or matched placebo for the 12-month, double-blind, placebo-controlled period. Randomization was stratified by age (\< 75 years, ≥ 75 years) and prevalent vertebral fracture (yes, no), as determined by site staff at randomization based on local reading of the spine X-ray.

Outcome results
Percentage of Participants With New Vertebral Fracture Through Month 12
New vertebral fractures occurred when there was ≥ 1 grade increase from the previous grade of 0 in any vertebra from T4 to L4 using the Genant semiquantitative scoring method. The Genant semiquantitative scoring method was based on assessment of x-rays according to the following scale: * Grade 0 (Normal) = no fracture; * Grade 1 (Mild) = mild fracture, 20 to 25% reduction in vertebral height (anterior, middle, or posterior); * Grade 2 (Moderate) = moderate fracture, 25 to 40% reduction in anterior, middle, and/or posterior height; * Grade 3 (Severe) = severe fracture, greater than 40% reduction in anterior, middle, and/or posterior height.
Time frame: 12 Months
Population: Primary efficacy analysis set includes all participants who had a baseline and ≥ 1 postbaseline evaluation of vertebral fracture during the 12 months, including participants with missing baseline Genant scores whose first postbaseline spinal radiograph showed no fracture on the same vertebrae.

Population: Primary efficacy analysis set for BMD includes all randomized participants who had a baseline and ≥ 1 post-baseline evaluation at or before the time point under consideration in the study period; LOCF imputation was used.
| Arm | Measure | Value (LEAST_SQUARES_MEAN) | Dispersion |
|---|---|---|---|
| Placebo | Percent Change From Baseline in Bone Mineral Density of the Total Hip at Month 24 | 3.2 percent change | Standard Error 0.1 |
| Romosozumab | Percent Change From Baseline in Bone Mineral Density of the Total Hip at Month 24 | 8.5 percent change | Standard Error 0.1 |
