- Subject is less than six (6) months removed from having a hip fracture repair or prosthesis, or less than three (3) months removed from an elective THA.
- Subject has progressive increase in undiagnosed hip pain over the previous six months that in the opinion of the Investigator may suggest other underlying bone or joint pathology (e.g. rheumatoid arthritis, fracture, etc.).

- Subject treated with corticosteroids or systemic glucocorticoids for ten (10) days in the previous six (6) months.
- Subject has history of oral or parenteral use of immune-suppressive drugs in the previous twelve months.
- Subject has history of metabolic bone disease other than osteoporosis (ex. Paget's disease).
