In the DATA study, 94 postmenopausal osteoporotic women (ages 51-91) received either teriparatide 20-mcg SC daily, denosumab 60-mg SC every 6months, or both for 2years.
Pearson's correlation coefficients (R) were calculated to determine the relationship between baseline and early changes in BTMs (as well as serum sclerostin) and 2-year changes in BMD.
In this study, Teriparatide (PTH 1-34) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. This result is not evidence about taking Teriparatide (PTH 1-34).
