You likely can't join if
- Participant has a history of any severe or more than two moderate vertebral fractures as determined by central reading of lateral spine X-ray at Screening Visit.

- Evidence of any of the following conditions which may affect BMD or interfere with the interpretation of the findings: a. Participant has a history of bone disease e.g., osteomalacia, osteopetrosis, Paget's disease, or osteogenesis imperfecta. b. Participant has a history of metabolic or other endocrinologic diseases such as Cushing's disease, hyperprolactinemia, hypopituitarism, acromegaly, malabsorption syndrome (or any gastrointestinal disorders associated with malabsorption, e.g., Crohn's disease and chronic pancreatitis). c. Participant has a history of chronic inflammatory diseases, obvious sclerosis, osteophytosis, severe scoliosis, or other degenerative changes due to other co-morbidities. d. Participant has a history or current hyperparathyroidism or hypoparathyroidism. Note: Mild non-clinically significant secondary hyperparathyroidism may be acceptable upon discussion with the Medical Monitor. e. Participant has current uncontrolled hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism. Note: Participants with hypothyroidism who are on stable thyroid hormone replacement therapy may be allowed per the following criteria: • If TSH level is within normal range, the participant is eligible. • If TSH level is elevated (> upper limit of normal and ≤ 10.0 µIU/mL) and serum free T4 is within normal range, the participant is eligible. • If a marginally low TSH level results from therapy , the participant may be enrolled after discussion with the Medical Monitor. Note: 2) If TSH is marginally out of normal range, serum free T4 is within normal range, and there are no plausible medical conditions resulting in the abnormal TSH level, the participant may be enrolled with the approval from the Medical Monitor. f. Participant has other disease conditions where there is bone/joint involvement (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, gout, multiple myeloma, achondroplasia, bone metastases, renal osteodystrophy, osteomyelitis).

Note: Oral replenishment of vitamin D is permitted at the discretion of the Investigator and in accordance with local standard of care during the Screening Period. Participants can be enrolled if a repeat test (post supplementation) prior to enrollment shows corrected 25-hydroxy vitamin D level ≥ 20 ng/mL (≥ 50 nmol/L).
