A Study in Indian Postmenopausal Women With Osteoporosis to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Denosumab

Bone mineral density (BMD) at the lumbar spine was measured by the dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scanner. The mean percent change from Baseline in BMD was calculated as: (value at Month 6 minus Baseline value) * 100 / Baseline value. Analysis was performed using an Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) model with terms for treatment and baseline BMD at the lumbar spine (as a continuous covariate).

BMD at the total hip, femoral neck, and trochanter was measured by the DXA scanner. The mean percent change from Baseline in BMD was calculated as: (value at Month 6 minus Baseline value) * 100 / Baseline value. Analysis was performed using an ANCOVA model with terms for treatment and corresponding Baseline BMD (as a continuous covariate).

Blood samples were collected for the measurement of s-CTx and s-PINP, which are used as biomarkers of bone resorption and formation, respectively. The median percent change from Baseline in s-CTX and s-PINP markers at Months 1, 3, and 6 was calculated as: (post-Baseline value minus Baseline value) * 100 / Baseline value.

An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant, temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. An SAE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose, results in death, is life threatening, requires hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect, or is an event of possible drug-induced liver injury with hyperbilirubinaemia. Medical or scientific judgment was to have been exercised in other important medical events. Refer to the general Adverse AE/SAE module for a complete list of AEs and SAEs.

Vital sign values of potential clinical concern were defined as: change in heart rate >30 beats per minutes (bpm), change in systolic blood pressure (SBP) >30 millimeters of mercury (mmHg), and change in diastolic blood pressure (DBP) >20 mmHg. The number of participants with post-Baseline vital sign values of potential clinical concern who did not have values of potential clinical concern at Baseline are summarized. If the change from Baseline is a decrease greater than the threshold, it is categorized as "low." If the change from Baseline is an increase greater than the threshold, it is categorized ad "high."

The number of participants with laboratory parameter values of potential clinical concern at Month 6 are summarized. The following are the laboratory values of potential clinical concern: alkaline phosphatase, High: >375 units/Liter (L); aspartate aminotransferase, High: >165 units/L; creatinine, High: >159 micromoles (µmol)/L; glucose, Low: <3 millimoles (mmol)/L; hematocrit, Low: <0.325; hemoglobin, Low: <91grams/L; phosphorus, High: >1.723 mmol/L; potassium, High: >6.3 mmol/L; sodium, Low: <130 mmol/L; total neutrophils, Low: <0.9 10^9 cells (GI)/L; blood urea nitrogen (BUN), High: >21mmol/L; uric acid, High: 654 µmol/L.

Blood samples were collected for the measurement of albumin/globulin ratio and BUN/creatinine ratio values. Change from Baseline was calculated as the Month 6 value minus the Baseline value.

Blood samples were collected for the measurement of albumin, hemoglobin, mean corpuscle hemoglobin concentration, and total protein values. Change from Baseline was calculated as the Month 6 value minus the Baseline value.

Blood samples were collected for the measurement of alkaline phosphatase, alanine amino transferase, aspartate amino transferase, creatinine kinase, gamma glutamyl transferase, and lactate dehydrogenase values. Change from Baseline was calculated as the Month 6 value minus the Baseline value.

Blood samples were collected for the measurement of basophil, eosinophil, lymphocyte, monocyte, segmented neutrophil, total neutrophil, platelet count, and white blood cell count values. Change from Baseline was calculated as the Month 6 value minus the Baseline value.

Blood samples were collected for the measurement of direct bilirubin, indirect bilirubin, total bilirubin, creatinine, and uric acid values. Change from Baseline was calculated as the Month 6 value minus the Baseline value.

Blood samples were collected for the measurement of calcium corrected, calcium, chloride, glucose, potassium, magnesium, sodium, phosphorus inorganic, triglyceride, urea/BUN, and VLDL cholesterol calculation values. Change from Baseline was calcualted as the Month 6 value minus the Baseline value.

Blood samples were collected for the measurement of hematocrit values. Change from Baseline was calculated as the Month 6 value minuse the Baseline value.

Blood samples were collected for the measurement of hemoglobin values. Change from Baseline was calculated as the Month 6 value minus the Baseline value.

Blood samples were collected for the measurement of mean corpuscular volume values. Change from Baseline was calculated as the Month 6 value minus the Baseline value.

Blood samples were collected for the measurement of red blood cell count values. Change from Baseline was calculated as the Month 6 value minus the Baseline value.

Blood samples were collected for the measurement of red cell distribution width values. Change from Baseline was calculated as the Month 6 value minus the Baseline value.

The number of participants with positive and negative results for both neutralizing antibodies to denosumab and for binding antibodies to denosumab at Month 6 are summarized.
