FREEDOM = Fracture REduction Evaluation of Denosumab in Osteoporosis every 6 Months. During the 3-year international randomised, placebo-controlled FREEDOM trial, women with postmenopausal osteoporosis received subcutaneous denosumab injections (60mg every 6 months). Upon completion of this trial, women were eligible to enrol in the FREEDOM Extension trial in which patients received up to 7 additional years of denosumab.
