436 postmenopausal women with osteoporosis who had been administered oral bisphosphonate therapy for 3 years prior were randomized in a phase 3 clinical trial to subcutaneous romosozumab or subcutaneous teriparatide. The purpose of this study was to compare the change in bone mineral density after 1 year of treatment between the two groups. Reported results demonstrated a significantly greater inc...
