In clinical studies, denosumab (DMAb) administration up to 8 years is associated with continued increases in bone mineral density (BMD) and low fracture incidence despite persistently low bone turnover markers and limited iliac crest tetracycline labelling (Papapoulos 2013). We tested the hypothesis that, with persistently low bone remodelling, BMD increases may result from a non-remodelling dependent mechanism to accrue bone matrix. We examined the fluorochrome labelling patt...
