Measurement Requirements
This trial is evaluating whether Treatment will improve 2 primary outcomes in patients with Osteoporosis, Age Related. Measurement will happen over the course of 1 Year.
Mineral Bone Density of the lumbar spine
1 YEAR
Percent change in mineral bone density absolute values of the lumbar spine measured by DXA at baseline and at one year.
1 YEAR
Measure of serum osteocalcin levels to predict bone turnover
1 YEAR
Diagnostic Utility of serum osteocalcin level measurements by ELISA at baseline and at one year to predict bone turnover. Area under the receiver operating characteristic curve analysis will be used to determine the discriminative power of osteocalcin levels for determination of low versus non-low bone turnover.
