Exclusion criteria:

* Life expectancy \< 6 months
* Patients with evidence in the six months prior to randomization of severe cardiovascular disease (defined as uncontrolled congestive heart failure), hypertension refractory to treatment, or symptomatic coronary artery disease uncontrolled by treatment
* Use of other investigational drugs (drugs not marketed for any indication) within 30 days prior to the date of randomization
* Current active dental problems including infection of the teeth or jawbone (maxilla or mandibular); dental or fixture trauma, or a current or prior diagnosis of osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ), of exposed bone in the mouth, or of slow healing after dental procedures.
