    Statistical Analysis 1
    Statistical Analysis Overview Comparison Group Selection Teriparatide, Romosozumab
    Comments The primary analysis to assess the treatment difference (Romosozumab - Teriparatide) employed a linear mixed effects model for repeated measures. The model included main effects for treatment group, visit (categorical), baseline sCTX, baseline hip DXA BMD value, machine type (categorical), and machine type-by-baseline value interaction (to adjust for the effect of machine type on baseline DXA BMD value) as fixed main effects using an unstructured within-subject variance-covariance structure.
    Type of Statistical Test Superiority
    Comments A two-step, step-down, fixed-sequential testing procedure was used to test the primary and key secondary efficacy endpoints for the comparison of romosozumab to teriparatide in the order presented for multiplicity adjustment to maintain the overall significance level at 0.05. The Key Secondary Efficacy Endpoints are the first 8 secondary endpoints reported below.

    Certain Agreements

    Principal Investigators are NOT employed by the organization sponsoring the study.

    The Clinical Trial Agreement generally does not restrict an investigator's discussion of trial results after completion. The Agreement permits Amgen a limited period of time to review material discussing trial results (typically up to 45 days and possible extension). Amgen may remove confidential information, but authors have final control and approval of publication content. For multicenter studies, the investigator agrees not to publish any results before the first multi-center publication.
