E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
The primary efficacy endpoint is: - the percent change from baseline in lumbar spine-bone mineral density (LS-BMD) at week 52 based on centrally assessed dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) measurements - The co-primary efficacy endpoint for the European Union (EU) submission is the percent change from baseline in serum C-telopeptide cross-link of type 1 collagen (sCTX-1) at week 26. For the EU submission, this endpoint is regarded as co-primary. For the United States (US) submission, this endpoint is regarded as secondary |
