Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Study to Evaluate the Effect of Romosozumab (AMG 785) on Bone Quality of the Forearm in Postmenopausal Women With Low Bone Mass (NCT NCT00950950)

NCT ID: NCT00950950

Last Updated: 2019-07-05

Results Overview

The polar moment of inertia is a geometric measurement used to predict bone quality, specifically the ability to resist torsion (twisting), and is highly correlated with fracture load at the distal radius. The polar cross-sectional moment of inertia was assessed using peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT), a 3-dimensional imaging technology which can be used for volumetric analysis of appendicular skeletal sites such as the arms and the legs. The distal slice was acquired at 20% of the length of the ulna proximal to the radial endplate. Scans were analyzed by a central reader.
