Study ID: NCT00399802
Brief Summary: This is a 4-week study to examine the effects of a new experimental medication on women with breast cancer and established bone metastases. This study will enroll approximately 45 women. The primary hypotheses are: (1) odanacatib will result in a substantial suppression of urinary N-telopeptide of type I collagen (u-NTx) similar to that achieved with an intravenous (IV) infusion of zoledronic acid (ZA) over 4 weeks of treatment; and (2) odanacatib (MK-0822) will be safe and well tolerated during 4 weeks of treatment.
