Bisphosphonates in breast cancer: antitumor effects.
Bone metastases add to the burden of breast cancer, with patients experiencing severe bone pain, pathologic fractures, spinal cord compression, and hypercalcemia of malignancy. Nitrogen-containing bisphosphonates have become the standard treatment for skeletal-related events and bone pain, as well as for bone loss associated with chemotherapy and aromatase inhibitors. Emerging preclinical and c...

Although main registry studies found a scarcity of relevant adverse events, in recent years and as a result of pharmacovigilance, different complications have been reported, some potentially serious. This has raised questions on the safety of these drugs, especially in high d...
متن کاملIndirect antitumor effects of bisphosphonates on prostatic LNCaP cells co-cultured with bone cells.
Bisphosphonates are strong inhibitors of osteoclastic bone resorption in both benign and malignant bone diseases. The nitrogen-containing bisphosphonates (N-BPs) have strong cytotoxicity via inhibition of protein prenylation in the mevalonate pathway, and also demonstrate direct cytostatic and proapoptotic effects on prostate cancer cells. We confirmed the usefulness of a co-culture system comp...
متن کاملVascular Effects of Bisphosphonates—A Systematic Review
BACKGROUND Osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease are interconnected entities with pathophysiological similarities. Bisphosphonates are therapeutic options available for resorptive bone diseases; however, experimental evidence has demonstrated a role for bisphosphonates in the inhibition of atherogenesis. METHODS A systematic review of the vascular effects of bisphosphonates on atheroscleros...
