NCT01120600

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to test the hypothesis that treatment with odanacatib will result in increased bone mineral density (BMD) compared to treatment with placebo. This study will also evaluate the safety and efficacy of odanacatib for male osteoporosis participants.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Percentage Change From Baseline in Lumbar Spine Bone Mineral Density (BMD) at Month 24

    Lumbar spine BMD was assessed by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) at Baseline and at Month 24.

    Baseline and Month 24

  • Number of Participants Who Experienced an Adverse Event (AE)

    An AE is defined as any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a study drug, whether or not it is considered related to the study drug.

    Up to 24 months (plus 14 days) after first dose of study drug

  • Number of Participants Who Discontinued Treatment Due to an AE

    An AE is defined as any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a study drug, whether or not it is considered related to the study drug.

    Up to 24 months after first dose of study drug

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Percentage Change From Baseline in Total Hip BMD at Month 24

    Baseline and Month 24

  • Percentage Change From Baseline in Femoral Neck BMD at Month 24

    Baseline and Month 24

  • Percentage Change From Baseline in Trochanter BMD at Month 24

    Baseline and Month 24

  • Percentage Change From Baseline in Serum C-Telopeptides of Type 1 Collagen (s-CTx) at Month 24

    Baseline and Month 24

  • Percentage Change From Baseline in Urine Collagen N-Telopeptide/Creatinine Ratio (U-NTx/Cr) at Month 24

    Baseline and Month 24

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Odanacatib 50 mg once weekly

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants will receive one Odanacatib 50 mg tablet once weekly. In addition, they will receive a weekly dose 5600 IU of open-label Vitamin D3 as well as a sufficient supply of open-label calcium carbonate so that their total daily calcium intake from both dietary and supplemental sources is approximately 1200 mg.

Drug: OdanacatibDietary Supplement: Vitamin D3Dietary Supplement: Calcium carbonate

Placebo once weekly

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Participants will receive one Placebo tablet once weekly. In addition, they will receive a weekly dose 5600 IU of open-label Vitamin D3 as well as a sufficient supply of open-label calcium carbonate so that their total daily calcium intake from both dietary and supplemental sources is approximately 1200 mg.
