Popis: In postmenopausal women at high risk of fracture, we previously reported that combined denosumab and high-dose (HD; 40 μg) teriparatide increased spine and hip bone mineral density (BMD) more than combination with standard-dose teriparatide (SD; 20 μg). To assess the effects of these combinations on bone microarchitecture and estimated bone strength, we performed high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) at the distal radius and distal tibia in these women, who were randomized to receive either teriparatide 20 μg (n = 39) or 40 μg (n = 37) during months 0 to 9 overlapped with denosumab 60 mg s.c. given at months 3 and 9, for a 15-month study duration. The 69 women who completed at least one study visit after baseline are included in this analysis. Over 15 months, increases in total BMD were higher in the HD-group than the SD-group at the distal tibia (5.3% versus 3.4%, p = 0.01) with a similar trend at the distal radius (2.6% versus 1.0%, p = 0.06). At 15 months, cortical porosity remained similar to baseline, with absolute differences of -0.1% and -0.7% at the distal tibia and -0.4% and -0.1% at the distal radius in the HD-group and SD-group, respectively; p = NS for all comparisons. Tibial cortical tissue mineral density increased similarly in both treatment groups (1.3% [p
