A Study to Compare the Safety and Efficacy of Romosozumab (AMG 785) Versus Placebo in Men With Osteoporosis

Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
Osteoporosis in Men
Interventions
Drug: Placebo
Biological: Romosozumab
Registration Number
NCT02186171
Lead Sponsor
Amgen
Brief Summary

The study is designed to evaluate if treatment with romosozumab once a month for 12 months compared with placebo is effective in increasing bone mineral density (BMD) at the lumbar spine. Additionally, the study will assess the effect of treatment with romosozumab for 12 months compared with placebo on BMD at the femoral neck and total hip.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percent Change From Baseline in Lumbar Spine Bone Mineral Density (BMD) at Month 12Baseline and month 12

Lumbar spine bone mineral density (BMD) was measured by dual x-ray absorptiometry (DXA). DXA scans were analyzed by a central imaging center.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percent Change From Baseline in BMD at the Femoral Neck at Month 6Baseline and month 6

Bone mineral density (BMD) was measured by dual x-ray absorptiometry (DXA). DXA scans were analyzed by a central imaging center.

Percent Change From Baseline in BMD at the Femoral Neck at Month 12Baseline and month 12

Femoral neck bone mineral density (BMD) was measured by dual x-ray absorptiometry (DXA). DXA scans were analyzed by a central imaging center.

Percent Change From Baseline in Lumbar Spine BMD at Month 6Baseline and month 6

Lumbar spine bone mineral density (BMD) was measured by dual x-ray absorptiometry (DXA). DXA scans were analyzed by a central imaging center.

Percent Change From Baseline in BMD at the Total Hip at Month 6Baseline and month 6

Bone mineral density was measured by dual x-ray absorptiometry (DXA). DXA scans were analyzed by a central imaging center.

Percent Change From Baseline in BMD at the Total Hip at Month 12Baseline and month 12

Total hip bone mineral density was measured by dual x-ray absorptiometry (DXA). DXA scans were analyzed by a central imaging center.
