Purpose of the study
Treatment
Allocation to intervention
Randomised controlled trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
Participants are randomised/allocated according to the revised CONSORT guidelines. Both participants and the researcher responsible for determining eligbility for inclusion in the trial are not aware of whether the participant is allocated to teriparatide or placebo (double-blinded). Allocation was centrally performed by computer software.
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
Computerised sequence generation using Minitab. Block randomisation, with stratification according to duration of ONJ from time of diagnosis (less than or equal to 12 months versus greater than 12 months).
Masking / blinding
Blinded (masking used)
