Denosumab treatment is associated with low fracture incidence, sustained BMD increases, and reduced sCTX. The decrease in median sCTX is at the quantifiable limit (0.049 ng/ml) one month post-dose, remains low, and attenuates at the end of the 6-month dosing interval. Using 7 years of data from the FREEDOM study and its extension, we characterized changes in sCTX over time and the influencing factors. In the bone turnover marker and pharmacokinetic substudies, serum was collec...
