Summary

This is a three month comparison trial of standard dose parathyroid hormone (PTH) (1-34) and two different doses of Parathyroid Hormone-related Protein (PTHrP) (1-36). The investigators want to to demonstrate that daily subcutaneous injection of PTHrP (1-36) in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis stimulates bone formation to the same or greater degree than PTH (1-34) but with less bone resorption.
