Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Mean Percent Change in Lumbar Spine Bone Mineral Density (BMD) From Core Study Baseline, Month 6, Intention to Treat (ITT) PopulationBaseline Core Study (Year 1) to Month 6 (Year 8)

Hologic or Lunar Machines: same equipment used in prior study should be used for all patient visits. sBMD (standardized BMD): Lunar sBMD = 952.2\*BMD, Hologic sBMD = 1075.5\*BMD. All scans analyzed centrally by Synarc (Portland, OR).

Mean Percent Change in Lumbar Spine BMD From Core Study Baseline, Month 12, ITT PopulationBaseline Core Study (Year 1) to Month 12 (Year 8)

Hologic or Lunar Machines: same equipment used in prior study should be used for all patient visits. sBMD (standardized BMD): Lunar sBMD = 952.2\*BMD, Hologic sBMD = 1075.5\*BMD. All scans analyzed centrally by Synarc (Portland, OR).

Mean Percent Change in Lumbar Spine BMD From Core Study Baseline, Month 12/Endpoint, ITT PopulationBaseline Core Study (Year 1) to Month 12/Endpoint (Year 8)

Endpoint is the last measurement during the 12 month treatment period during Year 8. Hologic or Lunar Machines: same equipment used in prior study should be used for all patient visits. sBMD (standardized BMD): Lunar sBMD = 952.2\*BMD, Hologic sBMD = 1075.5\*BMD. All scans analyzed centrally by Synarc (Portland, OR).

Mean Percent Change in Femoral Neck BMD From Core Study Baseline, Month 6, ITT PopulationBaseline Core Study (Year 1) to Month 6 (Year 8)

Allowed equipment Hologic or Lunar. Same equipment used in prior study should be used for all patient visits. Normalized baseline femoral neck BMD lunar equipment only 0.836\*BMD - 0.008; Hologic reference. All scans analyzed centrally by Synarc (Portland, OR).

Mean Percent Change in Femoral Neck BMD From Core Study Baseline, Month 12, ITT PopulationBaseline Core Study (Year 1) to Month 12 (Year 8)

Allowed equipment Hologic or Lunar. Same equipment used in prior study should be used for all patient visits. Normalized baseline femoral neck BMD lunar equipment only 0.836\*BMD - 0.008; Hologic reference. All scans analyzed centrally by Synarc (Portland, OR).

Mean Percent Change in Femoral Neck BMD From Core Study Baseline, Month 12/Endpoint, ITT PopulationBaseline Core Study (Year 1) to Month 12/Endpoint (Year 8)

Endpoint is the last measurement during the treatment period (thru Month 12, Year 8). Allowed equipment Hologic or Lunar. Same equipment used in prior study should be used for all patient visits. Normalized baseline femoral neck BMD lunar equipment only 0.836\*BMD - 0.008; Hologic reference. All scans analyzed centrally by Synarc (Portland, OR).

Mean Percent Change in Femoral Trochanter BMD From Core Study Baseline, Month 6, ITT PopulationBaseline Core Study (Year 1) to Month 6 (Year 8)

Month 6, Year 8 compared to Baseline, Year 1. Allowed equipment Hologic or Lunar. Same equipment used in prior study should be used for all patient visits. All scans analyzed centrally by Synarc (Portland, OR).

Mean Percent Change in Femoral Trochanter BMD From Core Study Baseline, Month 12, ITT PopulationBaseline Core Study (Year 1) to Month 12 (Year 8)

Baseline, year 1 compared with Month 12, year 8. Allowed equipment Hologic or Lunar. Same equipment used in prior study should be used for all patient visits. All scans analyzed centrally by Synarc (Portland, OR).

Mean Percent Change in Femoral Trochanter BMD From Core Study Baseline, Month 12/Endpoint, ITT PopulationBaseline Core Study (Year 1) to Month 12/Endpoint (Year 8)

Endpoint is the last measurement during the treatment period (through Month 12, Year 8) compared with baseline Year 1. Allowed equipment Hologic or Lunar. Same equipment used in prior study should be used for all patient visits. All scans analyzed centrally by Synarc (Portland, OR).

Mean Percent Change in Total Proximal Femur BMD From Core Study Baseline, Month 6, ITT PopulationBaseline Core Study (Year 1) to Month 6 (Year 8)

Baseline, Year 1 compared with Month 6, Year 8. Allowed equipment Hologic or Lunar. Same equipment used in prior study should be used for all patient visits. All scans analyzed centrally by Synarc (Portland, OR).
