Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study is designed to provide information about the bone anabolic properties and absorption profile of Unigene's PTH Analog when administered as oral tablets over a period of 24 weeks to postmenopausal women with osteoporosis.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The choice of a 24-week treatment period was based on published studies of PTH which demonstrate its potential to produce a statistically significant increase in BMD in patients with postmenopausal osteoporosis within that observation period.
