(MT) Successful completion of the Optimization period based on two consecutive measurements of albumin-adjusted serum calcium at least 1 week apart within the range of 7.8 to 9.0 mg/dL and with no more than 25% of change in the daily dose of any of active vitamin D and oral calcium supplements between the two measurements;
  • 6. (MT) Either of the following: a) If on suppressive therapy for thyroid cancer, serum thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) level should be >0.2 µIU/mL at screening and the dose of thyroid medication should be stable for at least 6 weeks prior to start of treatment; b) In other cases, serum TSH should be within the LLN and 1.5 fold upper limit of normal (ULN) at screening;
