OVX female cynomolgus monkeys were given once daily subcutaneous (sc) injections of recombinant hPTH(1-34) LY333334 at 1.0 microg/kg (PTH1), 5.0 microg/kg (PTH5), or 0.1 ml/kg per day of phosphate-buffered saline (OVX).
After 12 months, PTH treatment was withdrawn from half of the monkeys in each treatment group (PTH1-W and PTH5-W), and they were treated for the remaining 6 months with vehicle.
After death, static and dynamic histomorphometric measurements were made intracortically and on periosteal and endocortical surfaces of sections from the middiaphysis of the left humerus. Bone mechanical properties were measured in the right humeral middiaphysis.
