Women undergoing surgical menopause often experience marked menopausal side effects but are reluctant to use estrogen or other female hormones to ease the transition to menopause because of worries that the hormones may increase breast cancer risks. This study will evaluate tibolone in women experiencing surgical menopause to assess its effects on bone health, menopause symptoms and breast density.

This extension study is designed to assess the long term safety and efficacy of zoledronic acid in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis who have participated in the CZOL446H2301 (NCT00049829): HORIZON Pivotal Fracture Trial. This extension study began after the 3-year core study ended. Baseline is the same as Year 3.
To determine how prior therapy with alendronate or risedronate in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis influences the clinical effectiveness of teriparatide; The primary objective of the study is to compare the teriparatide (human, recombinant PTH[1-34])-associated change from baseline in a marker of bone formation, N-terminal propeptide of type I collagen (P1NP), between subjects previously treated with risedronate and those previously treated with alendronate.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of an investigational drug in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis. The primary hypothesis of this study is that in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis, oral monthly ibandronate, at doses of 100 mg and 150 mg, does not achieve persistence in reduction of bone resorption throughout the monthly dosing interval, as demonstrated by a larger change in the serum carboxyterminal crosslinked telopeptide of Type I collagen (CTX-I) log-transformed fraction from baseline four weeks post dose compared to one week post dose, during the third month of treatment, in the participants taking ibandronate than in the participants taking placebo.
The purpose of this study and 12 month extension is to evaluate the effects of two investigational drugs on osteoporosis in postmenopausal women.
