Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • have medical history documentation verifying postmenopausal status of at least 2 years (natural or surgical). If not documented, confirmation will be required using estradiol < 20 pg/mL and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) > 40 IU/mL;
  • have osteopenia or osteoporosis (< 1.002 g/cm2 Lunar or < 0.882 g/cm2 Hologic) as determined by DXA of the lumbar spine (AP or PA view, L1-L4). This corresponds to a T-score of approximately < -1.5.

Exclusion criteria

  • any clinically significant out-of-range laboratory values and vital signs,
  • a clinically significant cardiovascular, hepatic, renal, or parathyroid disease, in the opinion of the Investigator
  • a known hypersensitivity to bisphosphonates

risedronate

Drug

0.23 mg 14C-labeled risedronate, followed 7 days later with oral 35 mg risedronate once a week for 52 weeks followed by another 14C-labeled risedronate followed weekly by 35 mg risedronate for 3 weeks

Alendronate

Drug

0.45 mg 14C-labeled alendronate, followed 7 days later with oral 705 mg alendronate once a week for 52 weeks followed by another 14C-labeled alendronate followed weekly by 70 mg alendronate for 3 weeks

    Time frame: 28 days

Secondary outcomes

  1. to compare urinary excretion and serum concentration-time profiles of 14C-labeled risedronate and alendronate over 52 weeks.
