Baseline Characteristics

Patients with systemic rheumatic diseases aged 20 years or more, who had to have been receiving systemic glucocorticoid treatment at an average prednisolone equivalent dose of 5 mg per day or more more than 3 months and weekly oral alendronate or risedronate tablets before screening (7 to 91 days before baseline) and baseline (week 0) visits.
Patients were excluded if they were taking bisphosphonates other than weekly oral alendronate or risedronate tablets, or they had previously taken or were taking parathyroid hormone analogues, denosumab, or other investigational new drugs for the treatment of osteoporosis.

Participant flow

Eligible participants underwent the initial 24-week run-in period (from weeks 0 to 24) taking a weekly oral 35 mg alendronate tablet or 17.5 mg risedronate tablet which are the approved dosages for osteoporosis treatment in Japan. Subsequently, patients were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to one of the two treatment groups: the switching group, in which participants discontinued weekly bisphosphonate and started to receive an oral 50 mg minodronate tablet every four weeks (monthly minodronate) at week 24; or the continuing group, in which participants continued to receive a weekly oral bisphosphonate tablet (35 mg alendronate or 17.5 mg risedronate) for the subsequent 52-week randomization period (from week 24 to week 76).

Adverse events

Adverse events including upper gastrointestinal symptoms assessed by the Izumo Scale, vertebral fractures by thracic and lumber radiographs were collected.

Outcome measures

Primary endpoint
1. The difference between the proportions of patients who responded very satisfactory or satisfactory for the current bisphosphonate therapy at weeks 48 and 76 in the switching group and in the continuing group.
Secondary endpoints
1. Percent changes from week 24 in lumbar spine BMD and bone turnover markers at weeks 48 and 76.
2. Mean percentage changes from week 24 in BMD and bone turnover markers at weeks 48 and 76 within each treatment group.
3. Incidence of vertebral and non-vertebral fractures
4. Incidence of upper gastrointestinal symptoms, adverse events, and adherence rates to the study drugs at weeks 24, 48, and 76.
5. Average doses of glucocorticoids calculated during the three months before study entry, weeks 1 to 24, weeks 25 to 48, and weeks 49 to 76.
