Participant Flow

This study was conducted at 10 centers in South Korea. Participants were enrolled from 16 January 2017 to 17 August 2017.

Participants were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either romosozumab 210 mg subcutaneously (SC) QM or matched placebo SC QM. Upon completion of the 6-month treatment period, participants were followed for an additional 3 months.
