N2 - Context: Odanacatib, a cathepsin K inhibitor, increases spine and hip areal bone mineral density (BMD)in postmenopausal women with low BMD and cortical thickness in ovariectomized monkeys. Objective: The objective of the study was to examine the impact of odanacatib on the trabecular and cortical bone compartments and estimated strength at the hip and spine. Design: This was a randomized, double-blind, 2-year trial. Setting: The study was conducted at a private or institutional practice. Participants: Participants included 214 postmenopausal women with low areal BMD. Intervention: The intervention included odanacatib 50 mg or placebo weekly. Main Outcome Measures: Changes in areal BMD by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (primary end point, 1 year areal BMD change at lumbar spine), bone turnover markers, volumetric BMD by quantitative computed tomography (QCT), and bone strength estimated by finite element analysis were measured. Results: Year 1 lumbar spine areal BMD percent change from baseline was 3.5% greater with odanacatib than placebo (P
