Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Outcome name:Time to the first fracture. Measure:Time from randomization to a first clinical fracture. Timepoints:6 weeks

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Outcome name:bone mineral density Measure:Percentage change in total bone mineral density (BMD) in the hip, as measured by dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) of the non-fractured hip, at 24 months compared to 6-weeks post-infusion. Timepoints:24 month
