Romosozumab
Arm Description
Participants were randomized to receive a single dose of matching placebo administered by subcutaneous or intravenous injection.
Participants were randomized to receive a single dose of romosozumab administered by subcutaneous or intravenous injection. The starting dose was 0.1 mg/kg, with sequential escalation up to 10 mg/kg.
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Number of Participants With Adverse Events
Serious adverse events were any events that were fatal, were life-threatening (placed the participant at immediate risk of death), required in-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, were congenital anomalies or birth defects, or were other significant medical hazards.
Relatedness to investigational product was assessed by the investigator by means of the question: "Is there a reasonable possibility that the event may have been caused by the investigational product?'
Number of Participants Who Developed Anti-romosozumab Antibodies
Binding anti-romosozumab antibody titers were assessed using a validated electrochemiluninescence (ECL) immunoassay. The limit of detection for this assay was 3.91 ng/mL of anti-romosozumab antibody in neat serum. Samples found to be positive for binding antibodies were further tested using a validated bioassay to determine if the antibodies were able to neutralize the activity of romosozumab. The limit of detection for this assay was ≥ 0.75 μg/mL.
Secondary Outcome Measures
Maximum Observed Concentration (Cmax) of Romosozumab
Time to Maximum Observed Concentration (Tmax) of Romosozumab
Initial Concentration Following IV Administration (C0) of Romosozumab
Area Under the Serum Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to Infinity for Romosozumab
Apparent Clearance (CL/F) / Clearance (CL) for Romosozumab
Half-life Associated With the Beta (Plateau) Phase of Elimination for Romosozumab
The plateau (beta, β) phase half-life (t½,β) was calculated from the natural log of 2 divided by the beta phase rate constant (λβ). λβ for a subject was estimated by linear regression of at least 3 contiguous time points that followed the Cmax and constituted a distinct phase that preceded the terminal phase.
Half-life Associated With the Gamma (Terminal) Phase of Elimination for Romosozumab
The terminal (gamma, γ) phase half-life (t½,γ) was calculated from the natural log of 2 divided by the terminal rate constant (λz).
