  1. 01HumanObservational studyEfficacy outcome

    In Chinese women with osteoporosis, teriparatide increased lumbar spine BMD more than calcitonin, with a 5.0% least-squares mean difference.

    Summary
    For changes in LS-BMD from baseline to week 24, treatment with teriparatide showed significantly greater increases (P-values <0.001; least-squares mean difference: 5.0% in the Chinese study and 5.4% in FPT) than comparator (calcitonin/placebo).

    Summary · context
    To bridge the efficacy and compare the safety of the 24-week teriparatide treatment in a Chinese osteoporosis study (NCT00414973) to a large international trial (FPT, NCT00670501) to determine whether long-term results from the international study were applicable to Chinese patients.

    In this post-hoc analysis, a propensity score matching method was used to select patients with similar baseline characteristics.

    Patients were female with osteoporosis at high risk of fracture, aged ≥55 years, and had no history of rheumatoid arthritis or corticosteroid use.
