Measure
Odanacatib 50 mg Once Weekly
Participants received one Odanacatib 50 mg tablet once weekly. In addition, they received 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 was approximately 1200 mg.
Placebo Once Weekly
Participants received one Placebo tablet once weekly. In addition, they received 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 was approximately 1200 mg.

Measure
Odanacatib 50 mg Once Weekly
n=146 participants at risk
Participants received one Odanacatib 50 mg tablet once weekly. In addition, they received 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 was approximately 1200 mg.
Placebo Once Weekly
