Group Intervention Description Denosumab 60 mg Percutaneous core needle breast biopsy Participants received 60 mg denosumab by subcutaneous injection on Day 1 and underwent percutaneous core needle breast biopsies on Day 1 (prior to study treatment) and Day 28. No treatment Percutaneous core needle breast biopsy Participants received no treatment and underwent percutaneous core needle breast biopsies on Day 1 and Day 28. Denosumab 120 mg Percutaneous core needle breast biopsy Participants received 120 mg denosumab by subcutaneous injection on Day 1 and underwent percutaneous core needle breast biopsies on Day 1 (prior to study treatment) and Day 28. Denosumab 120 mg Denosumab Participants received 120 mg denosumab by subcutaneous injection on Day 1 and underwent percutaneous core needle breast biopsies on Day 1 (prior to study treatment) and Day 28. Denosumab 60 mg Denosumab Participants received 60 mg denosumab by subcutaneous injection on Day 1 and underwent percutaneous core needle breast biopsies on Day 1 (prior to study treatment) and Day 28.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Log Ratio of Post-baseline to Baseline Ki-67 Index in Mammary Epithelial Cells Baseline and Day 28 Ki-67 is a marker for cell proliferation. Participants underwent percutaneous core needle breast biopsies on Day 1 (Baseline, prior to treatment) and Day 28. Levels of Ki67 were measured using immunohistochemical staining and digital imaging. The proliferation index was calculated as the percentage of Ki-67 positive terminal ductal lobular unit (TDLU) and duct epithelial cells. The higher the percentage, the higher the rate of epithelial cell proliferation.
