Abstract
Many treatments against breast cancer decrease the level of estrogen in blood, resulting in bone loss, osteoporosis and fragility fractures in breast cancer patients. This retrospective study aimed to evaluate a novel opportunistic screening for cancer treatment-induced bone loss (CTIBL) in breast cancer patients using CT radiomics. Between 2011 and 2021, a total of 412 female breast cancer patients who received treatment and were followed up in our institution, had post-treatment dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) examination of the lumbar vertebrae and had post-treatment chest CT scan that encompassed the L1 vertebra, were included in this study. Results indicated that the T-score of L1 vertebra had a strongly positive correlation with the average T-score of L1-L4 vertebrae derived from DXA (r = 0.91, p < 0.05). On multivariable analysis, four clinical variables (age, body weight, menopause status, aromatase inhibitor exposure duration) and three radiomic features extracted from the region of interest of L1 vertebra (original_firstorder_RootMeanSquared, wavelet.HH_glcm_InverseVariance, and wavelet.LL_glcm_MCC) were selected for building predictive models of L1 T-score and bone health. The predictive model combining clinical and radiomic features showed the greatest adjusted R2 value (0.557), sensitivity (83.6%), specificity (74.2%) and total accuracy (79.4%) compared to models that relied solely on clinical data, radiomic features, or Hounsfield units. In conclusion, the clinical-radiomic predictive model may be used as an opportunistic screening tool for early identification of breast cancer survivors at high risk of CTIBL based on non-contrast CT images of the L1 vertebra, thereby facilitating early intervention for osteoporosis.

Treatment of bone metastases from solid tumors with bone-modifying agents: a web survey of Italian oncologists investigating patterns of practice drug prescription and prevention of side effects. Support Care Cancer 2024; 32:202. [PMID: 38427111 PMCID: PMC10907460 DOI: 10.1007/s00520-024-08392-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2023] [Accepted: 02/16/2024] [Indexed: 03/02/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE Optimal use of bone-modifying agents (BMAs) in patients with bone metastases from solid tumors is uncertain in some aspects: the drug choice; the planned treatment duration and long-term therapy; the prevention and management of possible side effects, including renal toxicity, hypocalcaemia, and medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ). METHODS Italian oncologists were invited to fulfil a 24-question web survey about prescription of BMAs for bone metastases of breast cancer, prostate cancer, and other solid tumors. Prevention and management of side effects were also investigated. RESULTS Answers of 191 oncologists were collected. BMAs are usually prescribed at the time of diagnosis of bone metastases by 87.0% (breast cancer) and 76.1% (solid tumors except breast and prostate cancers) of oncologists; the decision is more articulated for prostate cancer (endocrine-sensitive versus castration-resistant). The creatinine level (32.3%), the availability of patient venous access (15.8%), and the type of primary neoplasm (13.6%) are the most reported factors involved in choice between bisphosphonates and denosumab. Zoledronic acid every 3 months was considered as a valid alternative to monthly administration by 94% of Italian oncologists. Oncologists reported a good confidence with measures aimed to prevent MRONJ, whereas uncertainness about prevention and management of hypocalcemia was registered. CONCLUSION Italian oncologists showed a high attitude in prescribing bisphosphonates or denosumab at the time of diagnosis of bone metastases, with a large application of preventive measures of side effects. Further studies are needed to investigate some controversial aspects, such as optimal drug treatment duration and long-term drug schedules.

Estrogen deprivation effects of endocrine therapy in breast cancer patients: Incidence, management and outcome. Cancer Treat Rev 2023; 120:102624. [PMID: 37751658 DOI: 10.1016/j.ctrv.2023.102624] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2023] [Revised: 09/04/2023] [Accepted: 09/06/2023] [Indexed: 09/28/2023]
Abstract
Endocrine therapy is one of the standard adjuvant treatments to reduce the risk of recurrence and mortality in patients with hormone receptor positive early breast cancer. Despite its proven efficacy, ET side effects, which persist over time even if low grade, may deteriorate quality of life. During follow-up visits, emphasis is generally placed on the risk of disease recurrence, while the topic of ET side effects is commonly neglected and discussed only briefly. This could lead to poor adherence to therapy and early treatment discontinuation, resulting in worse survival outcomes. The aim of this review is to provide an overview of the available evidence on the incidence and reporting of ET-related side effects (including vasomotor symptoms, musculoskeletal disorders and genitourinary syndrome of menopause, as well as fatigue, psychological and ocular disorders, dysmetabolic effects and loss of bone density) and of the pharmacological and non-pharmacological strategies available to mitigate symptom burden.

Int J Clin Oncol 2023; 28:1298-1314.

Abstract
This comprehensive review discusses the dosing strategies of cancer treatment drugs for patients with impaired kidney function, specifically those with chronic kidney disease (CKD), undergoing hemodialysis, and kidney transplant recipients. CKD patients often necessitate dose adjustments of chemotherapeutic agents, e.g., platinum preparations, pyrimidine fluoride antimetabolites, antifolate agents, molecularly targeted agents, and bone-modifying agents, to prevent drug accumulation and toxicity due to diminished renal clearance of the administered drugs and their metabolites. In hemodialysis patients, factors such as drug removal from hemodialysis and altered pharmacokinetics demand careful optimization of anticancer drug therapy, including dose adjustment and timing of administration. While free cisplatin is removed by hemodialysis, most of the tissue- and protein-bound cisplatin remains in the body and rebound cisplatin elevations are observed after hemodialysis. It is not recommended hemodialysis for drug removal, regardless of timing. Kidney transplant patients encounter unique challenges in cancer treatment, as maintaining the balance between reduction of immunosuppression, switching to mTOR inhibitors, and considering potential drug interactions with chemotherapeutic agents and immunosuppressants are crucial for preventing graft rejection and achieving optimal oncologic outcomes. The review underscores the importance of personalized, patient-centric approaches to anticancer drug therapy in patients with impaired kidney function.

Randomized phase II study of zoledronate dosing every four versus eight weeks in patients with bone metastasis from lung cancer (Hanshin Cancer Group0312). Lung Cancer 2023; 182:107261.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Zoledronic acid (ZA) reduces the incidence of skeletal-related events (SREs) in patients with bone metastases from solid tumors. However, the optimal dosing interval of ZA for patients with lung cancer is uncertain. METHODS We conducted a randomized, open-label, feasibility phase 2 trial at eight Japanese hospitals. Patients with bone metastases from lung cancer were randomly assigned to receive either 4 mg of ZA every four weeks (4wk-ZA) or every eight weeks (8wk-ZA). The primary endpoint was the time to the first SRE and the rate and types of SREs after one year. SREs were defined as pathologic bone fracture, bone radiation therapy or surgery, and spinal cord compression. Secondary endpoints were the SRE incidence at six months, pain assessment, changes in analgesic consumption, serum N-telopeptide, toxicity, and overall survival. RESULTS Between November 2012 and October 2018, 109 patients were randomly assigned to the 4wk-ZA group (54 patients) and the 8wk-ZA group (55 patients). The number of patients who received chemotherapy or molecular-targeted agents was 30 and 23 and 18 and 16 in the 4wk-ZA and 8wk-ZA groups, respectively. The median time to the first SRE could not be calculated because of a low SRE. The time to the first SRE of all patients did not differ between the groups (P = 0.715, HR = 1.18, 95% CI = 0.48, 2.9). The SRE rate of all patients after 12 months was 17.6% (95% CI = 8.4, 30.9%) in the 4wk-ZA and 23.3% (95% CI = 11.8, 38.6%) in the 8wk-ZA group, without significant differences between the groups. There was no difference in any secondary endpoint between groups, and these endpoints did not differ among treatment modalities. CONCLUSIONS An eight-week ZA interval does not increase the SRE risk for patients with bone metastasis from lung cancer and could be considered clinically.

Abstract
Denosumab, an inhibitor of receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand, reduces skeletal-related events (SREs) and is approved for solid tumors with bone metastases. We studied long-term denosumab efficacy and safety because real-world data is scarce. This single-arm, single-center retrospective study included denosumab-treated breast cancer patients with bone metastases. Kaplan-Meier survival curves assessed exposure, SREs, osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ), and death. 132 patients were enrolled. The median denosumab exposure was 28.3 months (range 1.0-84.9). In the first year, 11.1% experienced SREs. This increased to 18.6% in the second, 21% in the third, and 35.1% in the fourth year and beyond. The median time to first on-study SRE has not been reached. 10 denosumab users (7.6%) developed ONJ. ONJ incidence was 0.9% in the first year, 6.2% in the second, 13.6% in the third, and 16.2% in subsequent years. The median time to first on-study ONJ has not been reached yet. Seven patients resumed denosumab after careful management of ONJ. Our data suggest that long-term treatment with denosumab may further prevent or postpone SREs at the cost of an increased risk of ONJ. The majority of patients who resumed denosumab did not experience a recurrence of ONJ.

Abstract
Breast cancer and prostate cancer are sex hormone-dependent cancers, and estrogen or androgen suppression therapy is the standard treatment. Cancer treatment-induced bone loss (CTIBL): bone loss and osteoporosis have become important side effects of these therapies. To summarize the current evidences, (1) Endocrine therapy for breast cancer and prostate cancer is associated with a significant decrease in bone mineral density. (2) Aromatase inhibitors (AI) for breast cancer are associated with a significant increase in fractures, and androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for prostate cancer is likely to be associated with an increase in fractures. (3) Administration of bisphosphonates and denosumab increases bone mass in patients undergoing endocrine therapy for breast cancer. Administration of bisphosphonates, denosumab, and SERMs increased bone mass in patients undergoing ADT therapy for prostate cancer. (4) Bisphosphonates and denosumab reduce fracture risk in patients on AI for breast cancer, and toremifene and denosumab in patients on ADT for prostate cancer.

Abstract
Quarter-detector computed tomography (QDCT) is an ultra-high-spatial-resolution imaging technique. This study aimed to verify the validity of trabecular structure evaluation using a QDCT scanner in the diagnosis of osteoporosis. We used a cancellous bone specimen image of the second lumbar vertebrae of an adult male with moderate osteoporosis. To obtain QDCT images, we created a three-dimensional model from micro-CT images of the specimen. Statistical analysis was performed on the relationship between micro-CT and QDCT imaging modalities. The differences between micro-CT and QDCT were assessed based on their significance with respect to the calculated mean measurements using the Mann–Whitney test. Single regression analysis was performed using linear regression, with micro-CT and QDCT as the explanatory and objective variables, respectively, to determine the relationship of the measured values between the two modalities. By applying the necessary correction to the micro-CT measured values, it is possible to perform an analysis equivalent to micro-CT, which offers higher spatial resolution than QDCT. We found evidence that if QDCT can be used, trabecular structure evaluation may contribute to image diagnosis to evaluate practical bone fragility.

Medication-Related Osteonecrosis of the Jaws (MRONJ) in Children and Young Patients-A Systematic Review. J Clin Med 2023; 12:jcm12041416.

Abstract
Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is defined by the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (AAOMS) as the presence of an exposed bone area in the maxillofacial region, present for more than eight weeks in patients treated with the use of antiresorptive or antiangiogenic agents, with no history of radiation or metastatic disease. Bisphosphonates (BF) and denosumab (DS) are widely used in adults for the management of patients with cancer and osteoporosis, and recently there has been an increase in their use in child and young patients for the management of disorders such as osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis, McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS), malignant hypercalcemia, and others. There are differences between case reports in adults compared to child and young patients related to the use of antiresorptive/antiangiogenic drugs and the development of MRONJ. The aim was to analyze the presence of MRONJ in children and young patients, and the relation with oral surgery. A systematic review, following the PRISMA search matrix based on the PICO question, was conducted in PubMed, Embase, ScienceDirect, Cochrane, Google Scholar, and manual search in high-impact journals between 1960 and 2022, publications in English or Spanish, including randomized and non-randomized clinical trials, prospective and retrospective cohort studies, cases and controls studies, and series and case reports. A total of 2792 articles were identified and 29 were included; all of them published between 2007 and 2022, identifying 1192 patients, 39.68% male and 36.24% female, aged 11.56 years old on average, using these drugs mainly for OI (60.15%); 4.21 years on average was the therapy time and 10.18 drug doses administered on average; oral surgery was observed in 216 subjects, reporting 14 cases of MRONJ. We concluded that there is a low presence of MRONJ in the child and youth population treated with antiresorptive drugs. Data collection is weak, and details of therapy are not clear in some cases. Deficiencies in protocols and pharmacological characterization were observed in most of the included articles.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the 12-months incidence of MRONJ after tooth extractions and possible related risk factors in patients with osteoporosis treated by means of oral bisphosphonates. MATERIAL AND METHODS Forty-five records of osteoporotic patients on therapy with oral bisphosphonates and treated with at least one dental extraction at the Department of Oral Surgery of University of Naples Federico II were selected. All patients were treated using a standardized surgical extraction protocol. At baseline and after 12-months follow-up, the following variables were recorded: "mucosal healing", "gender", "type of drug"; "duration of therapy"; "drug holiday". The collected data were analyzed and a linear regression analysis was performed to assess a possible correlation with onset MRONJ. RESULTS A total of 159 tooth extraction in 43 females (95.6%) and in 2 males (4.4%) with a mean age of 67.5 ± 3 years were available for the analysis. The majority part of patients was on therapy with alendronate (23; 51.2%), 11 patients (24.4%) were treated with risedronate and 11 (24.4%) with ibandronate. Before oral surgery, 84% of the patients showed a low-medium risk of MRONJ, while in 16% of the patients a medium-high risk was recorded. After 12-months follow-up, osteonecrosis was observed in 1 patient, with an overall incidence of MRONJ of 0.6%. The linear regression showed a significant correlation with MRONJ onset only for "gender" variable, with a R2 of 0.489. CONCLUSIONS Within their limitations, the outcomes of the study indicate that the risk of MRONJ after tooth extraction in osteoporotic patients taking bisphosphonates for OS is very low. A prolonged and specific antibiotic and antiseptic therapy, in addition to a surgical procedure as little traumatic as possible, will allow to perform oral surgery safely.

Abstract
Cancer and cancer therapies are a major factor risk for osteoporosis due to bone loss and deterioration of bone microarchitecture. Both factors contribute to a decrease in bone strength and, consequently, increased bone fragility and risk of fracture. Cancer-associated bone loss is a multifactorial process, and optimal interdisciplinary management of skeletal health, accurate assessment of bone density, and early diagnosis are essential when making decisions aimed at reducing bone loss and fracture risk in patients who have received or are receiving treatment for cancer. In this document, a multidisciplinary group of experts collected the latest evidence on the pathophysiology of osteoporosis and its prevention, diagnosis, and treatment with the support of the Spanish scientific society SEOM. The aim was to provide an up-to-date and in-depth view of osteoporotic risk and its consequences, and to present a series of recommendations aimed at optimizing the management of bone health in the context of cancer.

Abstract
Aim: This retrospective, observational study evaluated the long-term (>12 months) safety and effectiveness of bisphosphonate. Methods: Data collected for 359 patients included quantity and proportion of adverse events (AEs) and skeletal-related events (SREs), and times to first AE and first SRE. Results: Patients in the ≤24-month group experienced significantly fewer AEs compared with the >24-month treatment group (p = 0.008), and treatment for >24 months was a potential risk factor for AEs (p = 0.05). Neither the proportion nor the risk of SRE was significantly associated with therapy duration (p = 0.525 and 0.084, respectively). Conclusion: Bisphosphonate treatment beyond 2 years may increase the risk of AEs, but may prolong SRE-free survival early after 24 months, compared with medication administered for ≤24 months.

[PMID: 34884630 PMCID: PMC8657653 DOI: 10.3390/ijms222312823] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2021] [Revised: 11/23/2021] [Accepted: 11/23/2021] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is related to impaired bone healing conditions in the maxillomandibular bone region as a complication of bisphosphonate intake. Although there are several hypotheses for the onset of MRONJ symptoms, one of the possible causes is the inhibition of bone turnover and blood supply leading to bone necrosis. The optimal treatment strategy for MRONJ has not been established either. BMP-2, a member of the TGF-β superfamily, is well known for regulating bone remodeling and homeostasis prenatally and postnatally. Therefore, the objectives of this study were to evaluate whether cyclophosphamide/zoledronate (CY/ZA) induces necrosis of the bone surrounding the tooth extraction socket, and to examine the therapeutic potential of BMP-2 in combination with the hard osteoinductive biomaterial, β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP), in the prevention and treatment of alveolar bone loss around the tooth extraction socket in MRONJ-like mice models. First, CY/ZA was intraperitoneally administered for three weeks, and alveolar bone necrosis was evaluated before and after tooth extraction. Next, the effect of BMP-2/β-TCP was investigated in both MRONJ-like prevention and treatment models. In the prevention model, CY/ZA was continuously administered for four weeks after BMP-2/β-TCP transplantation. In the treatment model, CY/ZA administration was suspended after transplantation of BMP-2/β-TCP. The results showed that CY/ZA induced a significant decrease in the number of empty lacunae, a sign of bone necrosis, in the alveolar bone around the tooth extraction socket after tooth extraction. Histological analysis showed a significant decrease in the necrotic alveolar bone around tooth extraction sockets in the BMP-2/β-TCP transplantation group compared to the non-transplanted control group in both MRONJ-like prevention and treatment models. However, bone mineral density, determined by micro-CT analysis, was significantly higher in the BMP-2/β-TCP transplanted group than in the control group in the prevention model only. These results clarified that alveolar bone necrosis around tooth extraction sockets can be induced after surgical intervention under CY/ZA administration. In addition, transplantation of BMP-2/β-TCP reduced the necrotic alveolar bone around the tooth extraction socket. Therefore, a combination of BMP-2/β-TCP could be an alternative approach for both prevention and treatment of MRONJ-like symptoms.

Abstract
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women and the leading cause of cancer-associated mortality. The estrogen deprivation associated with therapies used to treat this disease may result in significant loss of bone density and a consequent increase in fracture risk. Anti-resorptive osteoporosis therapies (bisphosphonates and the inhibitor of receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand [RANKL] denosumab) play an important role in the mitigation of cancer therapy-induced bone loss (CTIBL), and may function as adjuvant therapy in moderate to high-risk breast cancer to prevent disease recurrence. Various international guidelines have delineated treatment thresholds based on both bone density assessment and clinical risk factors for CTIBL. The role of these bone-targeted therapies as adjuvant anti-cancer treatment is evolving. Currently, evidence supports the use of the bisphosphonates, zoledronic acid and clodronate, in this setting. Unfortunately, a focus on bone health in women with breast cancer is often not prioritized, leaving this group vulnerable to significant bone loss and subsequent fracture.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postmenopausal breast cancer survivors (PBCS) are at increased risk of bone loss and fractures due to age-related decline of estrogen, and this risk is compounded by aromatase inhibitor cancer therapy. Several patient-level targetable risk factors can mitigate osteoporosis risk; however, adequate health behavior and risk perception in this population are underreported. The goal of this study was to evaluate osteoporosis knowledge and beliefs and assess their association with engagement in osteoporosis preventive behaviors among PBCS. METHODS In this cross-sectional descriptive study, early stage I-IIIA PBCS (ages 55-86 years) completed the Facts on Osteoporosis Quiz, Osteoporosis Health Beliefs Scale, and Osteoporosis Preventive Behaviors questionnaires. Participants who were non-English speaking or declined to participate were excluded. Clinical and sociodemographic information were obtained from chart review and baseline questionnaire, respectively. Fisher's exact test, Student t-test, and Wilcoxon Mann-Whitney tests were used where appropriate to assess the association between knowledge and beliefs with engagement in osteoporosis preventive behaviors. RESULTS The mean participant age was 66.1 years with 20% self-reporting as non-Hispanic White, 40% non-Hispanic Black, 27% Hispanic, and 13% other. Approximately 83% of the cohort had estrogen receptor positive breast cancer and received a bone density scan within the last six years. Osteoporosis knowledge (10.5 ± 3.4), seriousness (14.9 ± 3.8), and susceptibility (14.0 ± 3.5) mean scores were low among PBCS. Most PBCS (75%) were adherent to calcium and vitamin D supplements, but only 47% reported engagement in strength-training exercises. Married/partnered, higher osteoporosis knowledge and health motivation scores were associated with strength-training exercise. After adjustment for marital status and osteoporosis knowledge, only health motivation score remained significantly associated with strength-training exercise (OR 5.56, 95% CI 1.35-22.93). CONCLUSIONS PBCS are highly motivated to keep a healthy lifestyle despite limited osteoporosis knowledge, perceived risk, and susceptibility. However, < 50% participated in strength-training exercise. Our findings suggest that oncologic care should include osteoporosis and fracture prevention strategies, directed at encouraging cancer survivors to increase their engagement in osteoporosis preventive behaviors, particularly strength-training exercises.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to assess apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values associated with medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (MRONJ) at each stage of the disease compared to controls. STUDY DESIGN The magnetic resonance imaging data of 38 patients in the 4 stages of MRONJ and 10 controls were analyzed. Mean ADC values of bone marrow in the controls and patients in each stage of MRONJ were calculated. The significance of differences was analyzed by using the Kruskal-Wallis test and post-hoc Mann-Whitney tests with Bonferroni adjustment. A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted to distinguish controls from MRONJ stage 0. P < .05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS The mean ADC values of controls and stages 0 to 3 were significantly different, with the lowest value in the controls (P < .001). ROC analysis revealed a cutoff ADC value of 1.06 × 10-3 mm2/s to distinguish between the control group and MRONJ stage 0 patients, producing values of sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and area under the ROC curve ranging from 0.89 to 0.94. CONCLUSIONS The ADC values of bone marrow affected by MRONJ are significantly different among controls and stages 0 to 3. ADC values may be useful for distinguishing normal from MRONJ stage 0.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Aromatase inhibitor (AI)-associated bone loss increases the risk of bone fracture and reduces patients' quality of life, making it a critical issue worldwide. We conducted a prospective non-randomized clinical trial (UMIN-CTR, UMIN 000016173) to assess the effect of denosumab on bone loss in patients treated with adjuvant AI and have previously reported the results at 12 and 24 months. This study aimed to present the results at 36 months of treatment with denosumab for osteopenia in breast cancer patients who were undergoing treatment with adjuvant AI; 36 months is the longest denosumab treatment period reported so far. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients received 60-mg denosumab subcutaneously every 6 months. Daily supplements containing 500-mg elemental calcium and at least 400 international units of vitamin D were highly recommended throughout the study period. The levels of bone mineral density (BMD) and bone turnover markers, serum tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase isoform 5b, and bone alkaline phosphatase were determined at baseline and 6, 12, 18, 24, and 36 months. RESULTS At 36 months, the bone mineral density of the lumbar spine, right femoral neck, and left femoral neck were found to increase by 8.8% (95% confidence interval CI 7.6-10.1), 4.3% (95% CI 3.0-5.5), and 3.1% (95% CI 2.1-4.1), respectively. No non-traumatic clinical fractures occurred in patients receiving AI and denosumab. CONCLUSION Twice-yearly administration of denosumab to the breast cancer patients treated with adjuvant AI, regardless of the skeletal site, resulted in consistent increases in BMD without severe adverse events at 36 months.

Abstract
PURPOSE The role of zoledronic acid (ZOL), a bone-targeted bisphosphonate, in the treatment of patients with breast cancer remains an active area of study. Here, we report the long-term outcomes of a randomized placebo-controlled phase II clinical trial in which ZOL treatment was added to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in women with locally advanced breast cancer. METHODS 120 women with clinical stage II-III (≥ T2 and/or ≥ N1) newly diagnosed breast cancer were randomized to receive either 4 mg intravenous ZOL every 3 weeks for 1 year (17 total doses) beginning with the first dose of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, or chemotherapy alone. Clinical endpoints included time to recurrence (TTR), time to bone recurrence (TTBR), time to non-bone recurrence (TTNBR), breast cancer survival (BCS) and overall survival (OS). RESULTS With a median follow-up interval of 14.4 years, there were no significant differences in any of the clinical endpoints studied between the control and ZOL groups in the overall study population. However, ER+/HER2- patients younger than age 45 who were treated with ZOL had significantly worse TTR and TTNBR with a trend towards worse TTBR, BCS and OS (TTR: P = 0.024, HR 6.05 [1.26-29.1]; TTNBR: P = 0.026, HR 6.94 [1.26-38.1]; TTBR: P = 0.054, HR 6.01 [0.97-37.1]; BCS: P = 0.138, HR 4.43 [0.62-31.7]; OS: P = 0.138, HR 4.43 [0.62-31.7]). These differences were not seen in older ER+/HER2- patients or triple-negative patients of any age. CONCLUSION Addition of ZOL to neoadjuvant therapy did not significantly affect clinical outcomes in the overall study population but was associated with increased extra-skeletal recurrence and a trend towards worse survival in ER+/HER2- patients younger than age 45. These findings suggest caution when using zoledronic acid in young, premenopausal women with locally advanced breast cancer and warrant further investigation.

External Beam Radiotherapy (EBRT) allows remarkable pain control in patients with skeletal metastases. We performed a Bayesian network meta-analysis comparing the most commonly used radiotherapy regimens for palliative management in patients with skeletal metastases. The main online databases were accessed in October 2020. All randomized clinical trials evaluating the irradiation of painful bone metastases were considered. The following irradiation patterns were analysed and included in the present network meta-analysis: 8 Gy- and 10 Gy/single fraction, 20 Gy/5 fractions, 30 Gy/10 fractions. The Bayesian hierarchical random-effect model analysis was adopted in all comparisons. The Log Odds-Ratio (LOR) statistical method for dichotomic data was adopted for analysis. Data from 3595 patients were analysed. The mean follow-up was 9.5 (1 to 28) months. The cumulative mean age was 63.3 ± 2.9. 40.61% (1461 of 3595 patients) were female. The 8Gy/single fraction protocol detected reduced rate of “no pain response” (LOR 3.39), greater rate of “pain response” (LOR-5.88) and complete pain remission (LOR-7.05) compared to the other dose patterns. The 8Gy group detected a lower rate of pathological fractures (LOR 1.16), spinal cord compression (LOR 1.31) and re-irradiation (LOR 2.97) compared to the other dose patterns. Palliative 8Gy/single fraction radiotherapy for skeletal metastases shows outstanding results in terms of pain control, re-irradiations, pathological fractures and spinal cord compression, with no differences in terms of survivorship compared to the other multiple dose patterns. Level of evidence: I, Bayesian network meta-analysis of RCTs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Aromatase inhibitors (AIs) play an important role in the endocrine therapy of postmenopausal breast cancer patients, with a recent tendency to extend the duration of their use. However, AIs may increase the risk of osteoporotic bone fractures. This meta-analysis evaluated the risk of osteoporotic fractures of the hip, spine, and other locations in breast cancer patients using AIs. METHODS We performed a systematic search to identify randomized controlled clinical trials that investigated osteoporotic fractures in breast cancer patients on AI therapy. The main outcomes were the incidence and risk of osteoporotic fractures in general and of hip, vertebral, and non-vertebral fractures in AI users and controls. RESULTS The systematic review found a total of 30 randomized controlled trials including 117,974 participants. The meta-analysis showed a higher incidence of osteoporotic fracture in AI users: The crude risk ratio for all osteoporotic fractures was 1.35 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.29-1.42; P < 0.001), for hip fractures 1.18 (95% CI, 1.02-1.35; P < 0.001), for vertebral fractures 1.84 (95% CI, 1.36-2.49; P < 0.001), and for non-vertebral fractures 1.18 (95% CI, 1.02-1.35; P < 0.001), respectively, compared to the controls. CONCLUSION Our meta-analysis suggested an increased risk of osteoporotic fractures for AI therapy in patients with breast cancer that was most expressed for vertebral fractures. Breast cancer patients on AIs need to be monitored for osteoporosis and osteoporotic fractures, and active prevention measures should be implemented.

Safety and Efficacy of Long-Term Zoledronic Acid in Advanced Breast Cancer with Bone Metastasis in South China. JOURNAL OF ONCOLOGY 2020; 2020:5670601. [PMID: 33061970 PMCID: PMC7545466 DOI: 10.1155/2020/5670601] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2020] [Revised: 08/29/2020] [Accepted: 09/15/2020] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
Background This retrospective study aimed to characterize the long-term (>24 months) safety profile of zoledronic acid (ZA). We aimed to investigate whether long-term ZA treatment had greater benefits than short-term treatment in patients from southern China with advanced breast cancer (ABC) with bone metastasis. Patients and Methods. A total of 566 metastatic breast cancer cases were included and divided into two groups according to the duration of ZA treatment. The included patients had at least one lytic bone lesion and had no skeletal-related events (SREs) prior to ZA therapy. The primary endpoint was to analyze the safety and long-term adverse effects, which covered osteonecrosis of jaws (ONJ), renal impairment, and hearing impairment. The second objective was to determine the efficacy of long-term ZA treatment by the incidence of SREs. Results Fifteen patients were diagnosed with ONJ (2.7%): nine in the short-term group (3.1%) and six in the long-term group (2.2%, P = 0.606). Five cases (0.9%) had renal function impairment: two in the short-term group (0.7%) and four in the long-term group (1.1%, P = 0.676). One patient (0.2%) in the long-term group had hearing impairment after 23 months of ZA treatment (0.4%, P = 0.482). In total, 103 cases in the short-term group (35.2%) and 138 cases in long-term group (50.5%) developed SREs (P < 0.001). The mean annual SRE rate was 0.3 in the short-term group (range, 0-3.1) versus 0.2 in the long-term group (0-1.0, P = 0.269). Subgroup analysis suggested that cases with non-load-bearing bone involvement and those who received systematic anticancer therapy without chemotherapy might benefit from long-term ZA treatment. Cox regression analysis indicated poor performance status, and nonvisceral organ involvement predicted high risk for SRE. Conclusions The extension of ZA treatment did not increase the long-term adverse events and reduced the annual incidence of SREs beyond 24 months. Although longer treatment of ZA over 24 months appeared to be safe, further prospective investigation is required.

Opportunistic use of chest CT for screening osteoporosis and predicting the risk of incidental fracture in breast cancer patients: A retrospective longitudinal study. PLoS One 2020; 15:e0240084. [PMID: 33052943 PMCID: PMC7556442 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0240084] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2020] [Accepted: 09/19/2020] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the diagnostic performance of chest computed tomography (CT) for opportunistic screening and longitudinal follow-up of osteoporosis in breast cancer patients, compared to dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). The association between L1 vertebral attenuation on chest CT and incidental fracture was also evaluated. We retrospectively reviewed 414 consecutive breast cancer patients who underwent both non-enhanced chest CT and DXA within a 3-month interval and had at least two DXA and two chest CT examinations over more than 1 year. The attenuation value of the L1 trabecular bone was measured on an axial CT image and compared to the corresponding DXA T-score. The diagnostic performance of L1 vertebral attenuation on CT for osteoporosis was calculated at different thresholds (90 HU, 100 HU, 110 HU), and the correlation between L1 vertebral attenuation values and DXA T-scores was statistically analyzed. Overall fracture-free survival was estimated and compared with the threshold of 90 HU on CT and -2.5 T-score on DXA. Of 414 patients (median age, 53.0 years), 88 (21.3%) had either vertebral or non-vertebral fractures. The median follow-up duration between initial and final DXA was 902.9 days. There was a moderate correlation between L1 vertebral attenuation value and DXA T-score (ρ = 0.684, CI 0.653–0.712). Fracture-free survival was significantly lower in patients with attenuation values ≤90 HU on CT and T-scores ≤-2.5 on DXA (P < .001). Multivariate analysis revealed that attenuation values ≤90 HU on CT (P < .001), T-scores ≤-2.5 on DXA (P = .003), and age ≥65 years (P = .03) were independent significant prognostic factors associated with overall fracture-free survival. The sensitivities and specificities of L1 attenuation value were 54.9% and 85.8% at 90-HU threshold, 74.0% and78.4% at 100-HU threshold, and 83.9% and 70.1% at 110-HU threshold, respectively. In conclusion, CT can be used for predicting osteoporosis and discriminating incidental fracture risk in breast cancer patients.

[PMID: 32987737 PMCID: PMC7583034 DOI: 10.3390/ijms21197028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/26/2020] [Revised: 09/14/2020] [Accepted: 09/22/2020] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is a severe pathological condition associated mainly with the long-term administration of bone resorption inhibitors, which are known to induce suppression of osteoclast activity and bone remodeling. Bone Morphogenetic Protein (BMP)-2 is known to be a strong inducer of bone remodeling, by directly regulating osteoblast differentiation and osteoclast activity. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of BMP-2 adsorbed onto beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP), which is an osteoinductive bioceramic material and allows space retention, on the prevention and treatment of MRONJ in mice. Tooth extraction was performed after 3 weeks of zoledronate (ZA) and cyclophosphamide (CY) administration. For prevention studies, BMP-2/β-TCP was transplanted immediately after tooth extraction, and the mice were administered ZA and CY for an additional 4 weeks. The results showed that while the tooth extraction socket was mainly filled with a sparse tissue in the control group, bone formation was observed at the apex of the tooth extraction socket and was filled with a dense connective tissue rich in cellular components in the BMP-2/β-TCP transplanted group. For treatment studies, BMP-2/β-TCP was transplanted 2 weeks after tooth extraction, and bone formation was followed up for the subsequent 4 weeks under ZA and CY suspension. The results showed that although the tooth extraction socket was mainly filled with soft tissue in the control group, transplantation of BMP-2/β-TCP could significantly accelerate bone formation, as shown by immunohistochemical analysis for osteopontin, and reduce the bone necrosis in tooth extraction sockets. These data suggest that the combination of BMP-2/β-TCP could become a suitable therapy for the management of MRONJ.

Abstract
Guided bone regeneration was studied to establish protocols and develop new biomaterials that revealed satisfactory results. The present study aimed to comparatively evaluate the efficiency of the bacterial cellulose membrane (Nanoskin®) and collagen membrane Bio-Gide® in the bone repair of 8-mm critical size defects in rat calvaria. Seventy-two adult male rats were divided into three experimental groups (n = 24): the CG—membrane-free control group (only blood clot, negative control), BG—porcine collagen membrane group (Bio-Guide®, positive control), and BC—bacterial cellulose membrane group (experimental group). The comparison periods were 7, 15, 30, and 60 days postoperatively. Histological, histometric, and immunohistochemical analyses were performed. The quantitative data were subjected to 2-way ANOVA and Tukey’s post-test, and p < 0.05 was considered significant. At 30 and 60 days postoperatively, the BG group showed more healing of the surgical wound than the other groups, with a high amount of newly formed bone (p < 0.001), while the BC group showed mature connective tissue filling the defect. The inflammatory cell count at postoperative days 7 and 15 was higher in the BC group than in the BG group (Tukey’s test, p = 0.006). At postoperative days 30 and 60, the area of new bone formed was greater in the BG group than in the other groups (p < 0.001). Immunohistochemical analysis showed moderate and intense immunolabeling of osteocalcin and osteopontin at postoperative day 60 in the BG and BC groups. Thus, despite the promising application of the BC membrane in soft-tissue repair, it did not induce bone repair in rat calvaria.

Abstract
Conventional drug discovery is a time consuming and expensive expedition with less clinical preference achievement proportion intended for breast cancer therapy. Even if numerous novel approaches to the conformation of drugs have been introduced for breast cancer therapy, they are yet to be implemented in clinical practice. This tempting strategy facilitates a remarkable chance to take the entire benefit of existing drugs. Despite drug repurposing significantly decrease the investigational period and cost, it has got many objections and issues. Scaffold repurposing is an approach that procures a novel significance on the decrepit motto of "to commencement with a pristine drug" . Hence, we move into a probable and nearer approach, the exploitation of scaffolds, which was originally developed for other purposes, including anti-tumor activity. In this review, we summarize different drugs and scaffolds used in breast cancer therapy.

Abstract
The last report of the World Health Organization (WHO) stated that approximately four million people experience bone pain due to malignant diseases. Among them, metastatic bone pain is one of the most important sources of complaint. The estimated median survival in the presence of bone metastases ranks from 10 to 12 weeks. Bone represents a potential target of distant metastases for the majority of malignant tumours. However, the exact incidence of bone metastases is unknown. Bone metastases have an important socio-economic impact, and due to the enhancement of the overall survivorship, their incidence is increasing. Malignant neoplasms such as lung, thyroid, renal cancer, multiple myeloma, and melanoma often metastasize to the bone. Bone metastases commonly localize to the spinal column, pelvis, shoulder, and distal femur. The proper treatment for painful skeletal metastases is still unknown. Hence, the purpose of this review of the literature was to update current evidence concerning the aetiogenesis, biological behaviour, and treatment algorithms for painful skeletal metastases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Breast cancer patients with bone metastases are usually managed with bone modifying agents, such as zoledronic acid and denosumab, and some bone turnover markers (BTMs) have been recognized as prognostic indicators in such patients. Although several studies have demonstrated the validity of BTMs as prognostic markers in patients treated with zoledronic acid, few studies have reported the utility of BTMs with denosumab treatment. In this study, we evaluated whether urinary N-telopeptide of type I collagen (u-NTX) can be a prognostic indicator in patients treated with denosumab. METHODS Thirty-six breast cancer patients newly diagnosed with bone metastases were evaluated retrospectively. Patients were treated with denosumab and anti-cancer drugs. u-NTX levels were measured 1 month before and after administration of denosumab, and the ratio of u-NTX levels before and after denosumab (change ratio) was assessed for its association with prognosis. RESULTS Levels of u-NTX decreased after denosumab administration in all patients except for one. The median value of the u-NTX change ratio was 0.766. Based on the change ratio, patients were divided into either a "high group" (n = 18) or a "low group" (n = 18). The low group showed significantly shorter overall survival (OS) compared with the high group (low group 15.0 months; high group 54.0 months; P = 0.012). Multivariate analysis indicated that the "low group" was an independent prognostic factor for OS (P = 0.028). CONCLUSION We demonstrated that the u-NTX change ratio in denosumab-treated breast cancer patients with bone metastases can be a prognostic marker.

Abstract
PURPOSE To examine the association of physical activity (PA) with bone health among patients with breast cancer receiving adjuvant aromatase inhibitor (AI) treatment. METHODS In this single-center observational study, we enrolled postmenopausal women with primary hormone receptor-positive breast cancer who were receiving adjuvant AI treatment. We assessed patient bone health [bone mineral density (BMD) and biomarkers of bone turnover] as main outcomes. PA was assessed using Baecke physical activity questionnaires (BPAQ) and an accelerometer. Multiple regression analysis was performed after adjustment for age, body mass index, smoking history and duration of AI treatment. For missing data, multiple imputation analysis was adapted. RESULTS The mean age of the 53 enrolled patients was 67.4 ± 8.4 years. The mean duration of AI administration was 25.7 ± 18.9 months. The most frequently administered AI was anastrozole (73.6%). Although not related to BMD, PA was related to bone turnover. Serum collagen type I amino-terminal propeptide, a bone formation marker, was associated with only light PA (t = - 2.55, p = 0.015), while tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b, a bone absorption marker, was associated with work index in the BPAQ subscale and light PA (t = - 2.28, p = 0.028, t = - 2.26, p = 0.031, respectively). The results for all patients were similar to those observed in the multiple imputation analysis. CONCLUSION PA was significantly associated with bone turnover among cancer patients receiving AI treatment. Light PA and PA in the work domain were the most important factors among various PA intensities and PA domains.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The adverse effect of fractures by different aromatase inhibitor (AI) drugs has not been thoroughly assessed in real-world studies. OBJECTIVE To assess the adverse events of fractures of real-world breast cancer patients caused by AI therapy through the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database. METHODS The FAERS data from January 2004 to December 2018 were sorted out and analyzed for correlations between fractures and AI use. Disproportionate analysis and Bayesian analysis were adopted to quantify the signal, the association between the AIs and fractures. The onset time and outcome of fractures after different AI regimens were also compared. RESULTS Out of 23,064 adverse reports, 657 fracture reports (2.85%) were analyzed. Anastrozole showed a positive association with 4 detection methods, while letrozole and exemestane did so with 2. More exemestane-related reports (44.62%) resulted in initial or prolonged hospitalization than anastrozole (30.12%, p = 0.013) and letrozole (29.43%, p = 0.006). The fracture onset time showed no significant difference among anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane (median onset time: 46.95, 34.25, and 40.58 months, respectively; p = 0.236). CONCLUSIONS Anastrozole should be prescribed with more medical care. Analysis of FAERS data identified fracture risk tendencies with AI regimens, which supported continuous monitoring, risk evaluations, and further comparative studies.

Dichotomic effects of clinically used drugs on tumor growth, bone remodeling and pain management. Sci Rep 2019; 9:20155.

Abstract
Improvements in the survival of breast cancer patients have led to the emergence of bone health and pain management as key aspects of patient’s quality of life. Here, we used a female rat MRMT-1 model of breast cancer-induced bone pain to compare the effects of three drugs used clinically morphine, nabilone and zoledronate on tumor progression, bone remodeling and pain relief. We found that chronic morphine reduced the mechanical hypersensitivity induced by the proliferation of the luminal B aggressive breast cancer cells in the tumor-bearing femur and prevented spinal neuronal and astrocyte activation. Using MTT cell viability assay and MRI coupled to 18FDG PET imaging followed by ex vivo 3D µCT, we further demonstrated that morphine did not directly exert tumor growth promoting or inhibiting effects on MRMT-1 cancer cells but induced detrimental effects on bone healing by disturbing the balance between bone formation and breakdown. In sharp contrast, both the FDA-approved bisphosphonate zoledronate and the synthetic cannabinoid nabilone prescribed as antiemetics to patients receiving chemotherapy were effective in limiting the osteolytic bone destruction, thus preserving the bone architecture. The protective effect of nabilone on bone metabolism was further accompanied by a direct inhibition of tumor growth. As opposed to zoledronate, nabilone was however not able to manage bone tumor-induced pain and reactive gliosis. Altogether, our results revealed that morphine, nabilone and zoledronate exert disparate effects on tumor growth, bone metabolism and pain control. These findings also support the use of nabilone as an adjuvant therapy for bone metastases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Aromatase inhibitors (AIs) used in breast cancer induce loss in bone mineral density (BMD) and are reported to increase fracture risk. MATERIALS AND METHODS Using a population-based BMD registry, we identified women aged at least 40 years initiating AIs for breast cancer with at least 12 months of AI exposure (n = 1,775), women with breast cancer not receiving AIs (n = 1,016), and women from the general population (n = 34,205). Fracture outcomes were assessed to March 31, 2017 (mean, 6.2 years for AI users). RESULTS At baseline, AI users had higher body mass index (BMI), higher BMD, lower osteoporosis prevalence, and fewer prior fractures than women from the general population or women with breast cancer without AI use (all p < .001). After adjusting for all covariates, AI users were not at significantly greater risk for major osteoporotic fractures (hazard ratio [HR], 1.15; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.93-1.42), hip fracture (HR, 0.90; 95% CI, 0.56-1.43), or any fracture (HR, 1.06; 95% CI, 0.88-1.28) compared with the general population. CONCLUSION Higher baseline BMI, BMD, and lower prevalence of prior fracture at baseline may offset the adverse effects of AI exposure. Although confirmatory data from large cohort studies are required, our findings challenge the view that all women with breast cancer initiating AI therapy should be considered at high risk for fractures. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE In a population-based observational registry that included 1,775 patients initiating long-term aromatase inhibitor therapy, risk for major osteoporotic fracture, hip fracture, or any fracture was similar to the general population. Higher baseline body mass index, bone mineral density, and lower prevalence of prior fracture at baseline may offset the adverse effects of aromatase inhibitor exposure.

Abstract
Background The aim of this study was to investigate clinical and pharmacoepidemiologic characteristics of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw. Methods The study population is comprised of 86patients who were diagnosed with ONJ at Ewha Womans University Mokdong Hospital from 2008 to 2015. Factors for epidemiologic evaluation were gender, age, location of lesion, and clinical history. The types of bisphosphonates, duration of intake, and the amount of accumulated dose were evaluated for therapeutic response. Clinical symptoms and radiographic images were utilized for the assessment of prognosis. Results Among the 86 patients, five were male, whereas 81 were female with mean age of 73.98 (range 45-97). Location of the lesion was in the mandible for 58 patients and maxilla in 25 patients. Three patients had both mandible and maxilla affected. This shows that the mandible is more prone to the formation of ONJ lesions compared to the maxilla. ONJ occurred in 38 cases after extraction, nine cases after implant surgery, six cases were denture use, and spontaneously in 33 cases. Seventy-six patients were taking other drugs aside from drugs indicated for osteoporosis. Most of these patients were diagnosed as osteoporosis, rheumatic arthritis, multiple myeloma, or had a history of cancer therapy. Higher weighted total accumulation doses were significantly associated with poorer prognosis (P < 0.05). Conclusion Dose, duration, route, and relative potency of bisphosphonates are significantly associated with treatment prognosis of osteonecrosis of the jaw.

Abstract
Breast cancer is the most common cancer and the second leading cause of cancer deaths among women in developed countries. Bone is a frequent site of metastatic disease with a stage-dependent incidence. Most women with breast cancer are at risk of osteoporosis due to their age or their breast cancer treatment. Scintigraphy enables imaging of the entire skeleton with high sensitivity but limited specificity. The false positive rate varies from 1.6% to as high as 22%, while the false negative rate varies from 0.96% to 13%. We observed a 70-year-old woman with a diagnosis of breast cancer and a false negative bone scan despite extensive bone metastases. She was under alendronate treatment for osteoporosis at the time. The false negative finding might be due to a transient phenomenon of alendronate, a bisphosphonate cleared from the plasma by uptake into bone and by renal excretion. 99mTc-MDP is eliminated via the same pathways, and therefore competition may occur between the two substances. Another possible explanation for the false negative bone scan could be that bone metastases, indicating hematogenous tumor spread, are detected earlier by CT scan or MRI than by bone scan. Breast cancer patients under bisphosphonate treatment for osteoporosis must be carefully evaluated for bone metastasis during radionuclide studies with 99mTc-MDP.

Abstract
Hormonal receptors positive breast tumor and prostate cancer are managed with endocrine therapies. Endocrine therapies designed for breast and prostate cancer are often associated to serious adverse skeletal related events, such fractures. Denosumab is a monoclonal anti-body binding RANKL which acts as inhibitor of osteoclasts activity, thus increasing bone mass. Denosumab was showed to strongly prevent hormonal therapies-related skeletal issues. Denosumab administration results safe in bone mass increase and reduction of fractures risk.
Hormonal therapies for receptor positive-breast and prostate cancer patients have shown clinical efficacy but also several side effects including osteoporosis, loss of bone mass and increased fracture risk. Denosumab represents an anti RANKL (receptor activator of nuclear factor-kB ligand) monoclonal anti-body acting as inhibitor of osteoclasts formation, function, and survival, then increasing bone mass. Herein, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to evaluate the role of Denosumab in saving bone health in prostate and breast cancer patients receiving respectively androgen deprivation therapy and adjuvant endocrine therapy. Moreover, selected patients have to be treated with Denosumab at the dose of 60 mg every six month or placebo. Outcomes studied included the bone mass density (BMD) increase at 24 and 36 months, BMD loss, reduction of fractures risk (in particular vertebral) at 24 and 36 months and safety (overall, serious adverse events – SAEs and discontinuation rate). Our results showed a reduction of the BMD loss up to 36 months both at the lumbar and femoral level and a BMD increase both at 24 and 36 months. It was also found a reduction in the number of new vertebral and femoral fractures at 24 and 36 months. Finally, our pooled analysis showed that Denosumab did not affect both the SAEs and therapy discontinuation risk. In conclusion, Denosumab administration can be considered effective and safe in the prevention and management of the above mentioned adverse events related to hormonal therapies designed for breast and prostate tumors.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Postmenopausal endometriosis is a gynecologic disease, affecting 2-5% of postmenopausal woman. Current literature assessing the prevalence, pathogenesis, and treatment of this uncommon condition is limited, stressing the necessity for future research. This review examines the current literature on postmenopausal endometriosis to help inform clinical decision-making and point to novel approaches for treatment and management. RECENT FINDINGS Although one unifying theory to explain the pathogenesis of endometriotic lesions has not been elucidated, estrogen dependence is central to the pathophysiological process. The total quantity of estrogen production is mediated by multiple enzymes in complex pathways. Recent studies have confirmed the presence of these necessary enzymes in endometriotic lesions thereby suggesting a local source of estrogen and a likely pathogenic contributor. More research is needed to fully elucidate the mechanism of local estrogen biosynthesis; however, the current data provide possible explanations for the presence of postmenopausal endometriosis in an otherwise systemically hypoestrogenic environment. SUMMARY All suspected endometriosis lesions should be surgically excised for optimization of treatment and prevention of malignant transformation. If hormone replacement therapy is initiated, combined estrogen and progestin is recommended, even in the setting of previous hysterectomy, given the risk of disease reactivation and malignant transformation of endometriotic lesions. Further research is needed to understand the true prevalence, cause, and progression in this patient demographic. Histologic studies evaluating tissue lesions and peritoneal fluid for estrogen receptors, estrogen metabolizing enzymes, immune cells, and nerve fibers will aide in clinical management and treatment planning.

Abstract
PURPOSE Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) studies are used for screening patients for low bone mineral density (BMD). Patients with breast and prostate cancer are often treated with hormone-altering drugs that result in low BMD. These patients may have incidental osteoblastic metastases of the spine that may be detected on screening DEXA studies. The aim of this pilot study is to assess whether random forest classifiers or support vector machines can identify patients with incidental osteoblastic metastases of the spine from screening DEXA studies and to evaluate which technique is better. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the DEXA studies from 200 patients (155 normal control patients and 45 patients with osteoblastic metastases of one or more lumbar vertebral bodies from L1 to L4). The dataset was split into training (80%) and validation (20%) datasets. The optimal random forest (RF) and support vector machine (SVM) classifiers were obtained. Receiver-operator-characteristic curves were compared with DeLong's test. RESULTS The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy and area under the curve (AUC) of the optimal RF classifier were 77.8%, 100.0%, 98.0% and 0.889, respectively, in the validation dataset. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy and AUC of the optimal SVM classifier were 33.3%, 96.8%, 82.5% and 0.651 in the validation dataset. The RF classifier was significantly better than the SVM classifier (P = 0.008). Only 7 of the 45 patients with osteoblastic metastases (15.6%) were prospectively identified by the radiologist interpreting the study. CONCLUSIONS RF classifiers can be used as a useful adjunct to identify incidental lumbar spine osteoblastic metastases in screening DEXA studies.

Abstract
Bisphosphonates are generally used to treat bone diseases, such as bone metastasis from cancer. There is evidence that, through the modification of the pharmacokinetics and biodistribution of bisphosphonates by formulating them into nanoparticles, they may be able to treat extraskeletal tumors. However, many previously reported bisphosphonate nanoparticle formulations show extensive premature release of bisphosphonates. Herein, using zoledronate (Zol), a third-generation bisphosphonate, we developed a new Zol nanoparticle formulation (denoted as Zol-NPs) by encapsulating anionic lipid-coated Zol-calcium nanocomplexes into poly(lactic- co-glycolic) acid nanoparticles emulsified with octadecanoic acid-hydrazone-polyethylene glycol (2000), an acid-sensitive cleavable emulsifying agent. The resultant Zol-NPs, about 180 nm in hydrodynamic diameter, show very limited premature release of Zol (i.e., <5% in 48 h in a simulated physiological condition) and enhanced cytotoxicity to both murine cancer cells and macrophages. In a mouse model with orthotopically transplanted mammary tumors, Zol-NPs significantly reduced the distribution of Zol in bones, but increased its distribution in tumors. Importantly, Zol-NPs also significantly inhibited tumor growth, whereas the equivalent dose of free Zol did not. This platform technology may be exploited to treat extraskeletal tumors with bisphosphonates.

Osteoporos Int 2019; 30:187-200. [PMID: 30413856 DOI: 10.1007/s00198-018-4758-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2018] [Accepted: 10/30/2018] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
UNLABELLED The long-term impact of hormone therapy for breast cancer on risk of osteoporosis and the extent to which bone screening recommendations are implemented in daily practice remain unknown. We found that the aromatase inhibitor-induced risk of osteoporosis did not continue in the off-treatment follow-up. Adherence to screening recommendations was suboptimal. INTRODUCTION A case-cohort study was undertaken to better understand the impact of hormone therapy on breast cancer patients' risk of osteoporosis, and to estimate the extent to which current bone mineral density screening recommendations are implemented in real-life daily practice. METHODS This study is based on 1692 female breast cancer survivors recruited from "Leumit" healthcare fund, who were diagnosed with primary nonmetastatic invasive breast cancer between 2002 and 2012. A 20% random subcohort was sampled at baseline, and all osteoporosis cases were identified. Adjusted hazard ratios (HR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were estimated by weighted Cox proportional hazards models. RESULTS Of 1692 breast cancer survivors, 312 developed osteoporosis during a median follow-up of 5 years. The crude cumulative incidence of osteoporosis accounting for death as a competing risk was 25.7% (95% CI, 21.9-29.5%). In multivariable analyses, osteoporosis was positively associated with the aromatase inhibitor (AI) sequential treatment after tamoxifen (HR, 3.14; 95% CI, 1.44-6.88; P = .004) but was more pronounced with AI use as upfront monotherapy (HR, 5.53; 95% CI, 1.46-20.88; P = .012). This effect did not continue in the off-treatment follow-up. In subgroup analysis by menopausal status, tamoxifen did not seem to confer a protective effect on bone health in postmenopausal patients. Adherence to screening recommendations in AI-treated postmenopausal women was suboptimal, particularly at baseline and after 48 months of continuous AI use. CONCLUSIONS The natural, age-related reduction in bone density is exacerbated by breast cancer active AI treatment. Future research should focus on investigating screening adherence-related barriers/facilitators and effective strategies to bring practice in line with agreed standards.

Abstract
Preservation of bone health remains a long-term clinical challenge in patients with breast and prostate cancer. Osteoporosis, defined by a loss of bone mass and microarchitecture, often results in fragility fractures that are typically associated with a high socioeconomic burden. Endocrine therapy, a mainstay treatment in the management of patients with hormone-sensitive breast and prostate cancer in the adjuvant setting, commonly exerts adverse effects on the musculoskeletal system and is associated with an increased risk of osteoporosis and fractures. Adjuvant use of gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogues, which can also be used in metastatic disease, in combination with tamoxifen in premenopausal women, and aromatase inhibitors in postmenopausal women with hormone-sensitive breast cancer, causes rapid bone loss and fragility fractures. By contrast, selective oestrogen receptor modulators, such as tamoxifen, have bone-protective effects in postmenopausal women. In men with castration-sensitive prostate cancer, androgen deprivation is achieved with drugs that lower gonadotropin levels, and these drugs can be combined with androgen receptor antagonists. These therapies induce a high bone turnover with rapid bone loss that is reminiscent of the changes occurring in early menopause and result in an increased risk of fracture. In this Review, we describe how adjuvant endocrine therapies of breast and prostate cancer impair bone health and outline evidence from randomised controlled trials of strategies to reduce risk of fracture.

Abstract
Purpose The aim of this official guideline coordinated and published by the German Society for Gynecology and Obstetrics (DGGG) and the German Cancer Society (DKG) was to optimize the screening, diagnosis, therapy and follow-up care of breast cancer. Methods The process of updating the S3 guideline dating from 2012 was based on the adaptation of identified source guidelines which were combined with reviews of evidence compiled using PICO (Patients/Interventions/Control/Outcome) questions and the results of a systematic search of literature databases and the selection and evaluation of the identified literature. The interdisciplinary working groups took the identified materials as their starting point to develop recommendations and statements which were modified and graded in a structured consensus procedure. Recommendations Part 1 of this short version of the guideline presents recommendations for the screening, diagnosis and follow-up care of breast cancer. The importance of mammography for screening is confirmed in this updated version of the guideline and forms the basis for all screening. In addition to the conventional methods used to diagnose breast cancer, computed tomography (CT) is recommended for staging in women with a higher risk of recurrence. The follow-up concept includes suggested intervals between physical, ultrasound and mammography examinations, additional high-tech diagnostic procedures, and the determination of tumor markers for the evaluation of metastatic disease.

Abstract
Objectives We compared the effectiveness of bisphosphonates combined with activated vitamin D administered for therapy of aromatase inhibitor-induced osteoporosis after a breast cancer operation and primary postmenopausal osteoporosis through propensity score matching. Methods Forty-eight postmenopausal patients with estrogen receptor-positive early breast cancer, who had postoperative adjuvant treatment with aromatase inhibitors and whose T-score of bone mineral density (BMD) decreased below −2.5 (AI group), and 48 patients of primary postmenopausal osteoporosis (PO group) enrolled in this retrospective observational study. They were administered monthly risedronate or minodronate, and daily alfacalcitol or eldecalcitol were combined. Their BMD (L2–4, L-BMD), serum-corrected calcium, serum phosphate, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b (TRACP-5b), bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP), estimated glomerular filtration rate, urine calcium/creatinine ratio, intact-parathyroid hormone, and 25-hydroxy vitamin D were measured before treatment and until 24 months. Results L-BMD values increased with time compared with the baseline values in each group, and there was no significant difference in the groups. Percentage value of TRACP-5b decreased rapidly after 6 months and maintained low level until 24 months in both groups. Percentage value of BAP in the AI group decreased continuously until 24 months. In contrast, the percentage change in the PO group plateaued after 6 months. Conclusions It is suggested that monthly oral bisphosphonate combined with activated Vitamin D is an effective therapy to increase BMD in the aromatase inhibitor-induced osteoporosis after breast cancer operation. Monitoring of kidney function and concentration of Ca in blood and urine may be necessary.

Abstract
Background The aim of the study was to conduct subgroup analyses of therapeutic effects of 12-month denosumab therapy on the percentage change in bone mineral density (BMD) from baseline in the lumber spine and femoral neck. Materials and methods We prospectively evaluated the BMD of the lumbar spine and femoral neck of 100 hormone receptor-positive, clinical stage I–IIIA postoperative postmenopausal breast cancer patients, for whom treatment with aromatase inhibitors (AIs) as adjuvant endocrine therapy was scheduled. The primary endpoint was the percent change in lumbar spine BMD from baseline to 12 months. Patient subgroups were analyzed according to baseline variables that are known risk factors for bone loss, including previous AI therapy, age, time since menopause, baseline body mass index (BMI), and baseline BMD T-score. Results At 12 months, lumbar spine BMD increased by 4.7%; the patients who were administered AI therapy prior to denosumab (n=70) demonstrated a 4.7% increase in BMD, and the patients who received denosumab at the start of AI therapy (n=30) demonstrated a 4.5% increase in BMD (p=0.8385). Additionally, 2.4% and 1.4% increases in BMD of the right and left femoral neck, respectively, were observed. Initiation of AI (with denosumab, before denosumab), type of AI (non-steroidal, steroidal), age (<65, ≥65 years), time since menopause (≤5, >5 years), BMI (<25, ≥25 kg/m2), and T-score (≤−1.0, >−1.0) of the right femoral neck were as follows: (2.2%, 2.5%, p=0.7773), (2.6%, 0.9%, p=0.1726), (2.5%, 2.3%, p=0.7594), (2.1%, 2.4%, p=0.2034), (2.1%, 2.9%, p=0.2034), and (2.3%, 2.7%, p=0.6823), respectively. Initiation of AI (with denosumab, before denosumab), type of AI (non-steroidal, steroidal), age (<65, ≥65 years), time since menopause (≤5, >5 years), BMI (<25, ≥25 kg/m2), and T-score (≤−1.0, >−1.0) of the left femoral neck were as follows: (1.0%, 1.5%, p=0.1972), (1.2%, 2.7%, p=0.2931), (1.4%, 1.3%, p=0.8817), (−0.1%, 1.6%, p=0.1766), (1.3%, 1.9%, p=0.6465), and (1.5%, 1.1%, p=0.6573), respectively. Conclusion Twice-yearly treatment with denosumab was associated with increased BMD among Japanese women receiving adjuvant AI therapy, regardless of the baseline characteristics or skeletal site.

Long-term effect of exemestane therapy on bone mineral density supported by bisphosphonates: Results of 5-year adjuvant treatment in postmenopausal women with early-stage breast cancer. Asia Pac J Clin Oncol 2018; 14:e238-e242.

Abstract
PURPOSE Unlike anastrozole, the effect of long-term exemestane (EXE) therapy on bone mineral density (BMD) is still unknown. We assessed changes in BMD from baseline to 5 years of EXE treatment. METHODS Postmenopausal women with endocrine-responsive breast cancer receiving EXE as adjuvant therapy were enrolled in this study. EXE was administered for 5 years. The BMD of the lumbar spine (LS) and femoral neck (FN) was assessed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry at baseline and after 6 months and 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 years. Oral bisphosphonate (Bis) treatment was initiated when patients were diagnosed with osteoporosis with a T-score of -2.5 or lower. RESULTS Eighty-one patients were enrolled in the study between 2005 and 2010. The median follow-up period was 54.9 months. Forty-two patients were administered Bis. Overall, the BMD of the LS increased by 7.3% from baseline and that of the FN increased by 3.4% with 5 years of EXE treatment. At the sixth year (i.e. 1 year after the treatment), BMD of the LS increased by 7.2% and that of the FN increased by 5.7%. Furthermore, the BMD of the FN increased by 12.0% in patients treated upfront with Bis and by 1.2% in those not treated with Bis (P = 0.0262). Fractures developed in nine patients (11.1%) and seven (8.6%) had fragility fractures. CONCLUSION Oral Bis improves BMD of the FN in patients with osteoporosis. Five-year EXE treatment with proper addition of Bis helps maintain the BMD of the LS and FN at the sixth year.

Abstract
Purpose To retrospectively assess whether there is an association between screening mammography and the use of a variety of preventive services in women who are enrolled in Medicare. Materials and Methods U.S. Medicare claims from 2010 to 2014 Research Identifiable Files were reviewed to retrospectively identify a group of women who underwent screening mammography and a control group without screening mammography in 2012. The screened group was divided into positive versus negative results at screening, and the positive subgroup was divided into false-positive and true-positive findings. Multivariate logistic regression models and inverse probability of treatment weighting were used to examine the relationship between screening status and the probabilities of undergoing Papanicolaou test, bone mass measurement, or influenza vaccination in the following 2 years. Results The cohort consisted of 555 705 patients, of whom 185 625 (33.4%) underwent mammography. After adjusting for patient demographics, comorbidities, geographic covariates, and baseline preventive care, women who underwent index screening mammography (with either positive or negative results) were more likely than unscreened women to later undergo Papanicolaou test (odds ratio [OR], 1.49; 95% confidence interval: 1.40, 1.58), bone mass measurement (OR, 1.70; 95% confidence interval: 1.63, 1.78), and influenza vaccine (OR, 1.45; 95% confidence interval: 1.37, 1.53). In women who had not undergone these preventive measures in the 2 years before screening mammography, use of these three services after false-positive findings at screening was no different than after true-negative findings at screening. Conclusion In beneficiaries of U.S. Medicare, use of screening mammography was associated with higher likelihood of adherence to other preventive guidelines, without a negative association between false-positive results and cervical cancer screening.

Abstract
Introduction Bisphosphonates and denosumab reduce the risk of skeletal events in some malignancies (for example, breast, myeloma). These drugs carry a significant risk of a difficult-to-manage side effect of medication related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ). Preventive dental screening and treatment reduces the incidence of MRONJ. A managed clinical network (MCN) has been used to provide a MRONJ risk reduction pathway. A 360 degree survey was undertaken to assess the effectiveness of the pathway.Aim The aim of the 360 degree survey was to evaluate if this preventive pathway fulfilled its aims based on patient and stakeholder responses.Method A multidisciplinary, cross-service, cross-health board MRONJ preventive pathway has been developed. A 360 degree feedback survey of patients and other stakeholders was undertaken.Results Overall, this survey revealed high levels of satisfaction across patients, oncologists, community dental services, general dental services, and hospital managers.Conclusion Alternative ways of delivering MRONJ preventive pathways can be developed and assessed using iterative stakeholder feedback aided by a robust clinical governance framework.
