Context: Denosumab treatment for 24 months increased bone mineral density (BMD) and reduced bone turnover markers (BTM) in postmenopausal women.Objective: The aim was to determine the effects of prior denosumab or placebo injections on BMD, BTM, and safety over 24 months after treatment discontinuation.Design: We conducted an off-treatment extension of a phase 3, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group study.Participants: A total of 256 postmenopausal women with a mean age of 59 yr and a mean lumbar spine T-score of -1.61 at randomization participated in the study.Interventions: Participants received placebo or 60 mg denosumab every 6 months for 24 months, followed by 24 months off treatment.Main Outcome Measures: We measured the percentage changes in BMD and BTM, and evaluated safety.Results: Of the 256 participants enrolled in the posttreatment phase, 87% completed the study. During 24 months of denosumab treatment, BMD increased (lumbar spine, 6.4%; total hip, 3.6%; 1/3 radius, 1.4%), and BTM decreased (serum C-terminal telopeptide of type 1 collagen, 63%; and N-terminal propeptide of type 1 procollagen, 47%), compared with placebo. After discontinuation, BMD declined, but the previously treated denosumab group maintained higher BMD than the previously treated placebo group at these sites (P
