What was measured

A skeletal-related event (SRE) is defined as one of the following: pathologic fracture (vertebral or non-vertebral), radiation therapy to bone (including the use of radioisotopes), surgery to bone, or spinal cord compression. Time to first on-study SRE is defined as the time interval (in days) from the randomization date to the date of first occurrence of on-study SRE. Time to a subsequent SRE is defined, similarly to the time to first on-study SRE, as the time interval from the randomization date to the date of a subsequent occurrence of on-study SRE, which had to be at least 21 days after the previous SRE. A multiple event analysis was used, which accounts for both the absolute number of SREs and for the time between two consecutive events, and therefore, provides a more sensitive assessment of the risk of experiencing an SRE. The average number of events per patient is reported.

    The statistical inferences of the treatment effect on secondary efficacy endpoints (time to the first on study SRE \[superiority\] and time to first and subsequent on study SRE \[superiority, multiple event analysis\]) were to be conducted if denosumab was determined to be non-inferior to zoledronic acid. To control the overall type I error for multiple comparisons at a significant level of 0.05, these secondary efficacy endpoints were tested simultaneously using the Hochberg procedure.
