Key inclusion & exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria:
1. Participant is already enrolled in Protocol 018.
2. Participant is willing to undergo all QCT and DXA imaging procedures and biomarker assessments.
3. Participant's body habitus allows for QCT scanning (i.e. Body Mass Index (BMI) is = 35 kg/m2).
4. Participant has two hips that are evaluable by DXA and QCT (e.g., contain no hardware from orthopedic procedures). Note: Surgical clips are acceptable.5. Participant has a spinal anatomy suitable for DXA and QCT of the lumbar spine. (e.g. does not have significant scoliosis, bone deformity, hardware or sequelae of orthopedic procedures. Note: Surgical clips are acceptable.) For DXA, at least 2 vertebrae from L1-L4 must be evaluable and for QCT, at least 2 vertebrae from T12-L3 must be evaluable.
6. Participant understands the study procedures and the risks involved with the study and voluntarily agrees to participate by giving written informed consent.

Primary Outcome(s)

Main Objective: In postmenopausal women with osteoporosis:

To evaluate the effect of treatment with MK-0822 50 mg once weekly (OW) on the percent change from baseline in trabecular volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) at the lumbar spine (assessed by QCT) compared to placebo at Month 24.

Secondary Objective: In postmenopausal women with osteoporosis:

1. To evaluate the effect of treatment with MK-0822 50 mg OW on the percent change from baseline in cortical vBMD at the hip (assessed by QCT) compared to placebo at Month 24.
2. To evaluate the effect of treatment with MK-0822 50 mg OW on the percent change from baseline in aBMD at the lumbar spine, hip and hip sub-regions and 1/3 distal forearm (assessed by DXA) compared to placebo at Month 24.
3. To evaluate the effect of treatment with MK-0822 50 mg OW on the percent change in biochemical indices of bone formation [serum-bone specific alkaline phosphatase (s-BSAP) and serum N-terminal propeptides of Type I collagen (s-P1NP)] and bone resorption [serum C-telopeptides of Type I collagen (s-CTx) and urinary N telopeptides of Type I collagen (u-NTx)] compared to placebo at Month 24.
