Table 2.

Bone mineral density changes after 12 months of subcutaneous denosumab 60 mg versus placebo in ADAMO (n=242 men)

Denosumab Placebo P-value
ADAMO BMD changes from baseline
BMD lumbar spine +5.7% +0.9% <0.0001
BMD total hip +2.4% +0.3% <0.0001
BMD femoral neck +2.1% 0.0% <0.0001
BMD hip trochanter +3.1% +0.8% <0.0001
BMD one third radius +0.6% −0.3% <0.0144

Notes: Age, race, geographic region, previous osteoporotic fracture, baseline testosterone level, 10-year major osteoporotic fracture risk, and lumbar spine bone mineral density T-score did not confound the data and when controlled for separation from placebo and from baseline were still significant (P<0.0001 for each comparison).
