Odanacatib is a potent, selective, and neutral cathepsin K inhibitor, an enzyme involved in bone resorption. Merck & Co was developing odanacatib, a once-weekly, oral Odanacatib, for the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis and osteoporosis in men. Merck & Co. has discontinued development of its cathepsin K inhibitor odanacatib, citing an increased risk of cardiovascular events for the osteoporosis drug.

Sample Use Guides
Merck is conducting a long-term phase II trial that is assessing four different doses of odanacatib (3mg, 10mg, 25mg and 50mg once-weekly for 2 years) in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis (NCT00112437; EudraCT2005-001511-22). Results from this phase IIb study showed that odanacatib 50mg increased bone mineral density (BMD) from baseline, and was generally safe and well tolerated.
