BACKGROUND Zoledronic acid, an inhibitor of osteoclast-mediated bone resorption, has been shown to have both direct and indirect antitumor activity. However, its use in extraskeletal malignancy is limited due to rapid uptake and accumulation within bone. Polyinosinic acid-polycytidylic acid [poly (I:C)] is a synthetic double-stranded RNA with direct antitumor cytotoxicity if it can be delivered...
BACKGROUND Zoledronic acid, a bisphosphonate, delays progression of bone metastases in adult malignancies. Bone is a common metastatic site of advanced neuroblastoma. We previously reported efficacy of zoledronic acid in a murine model of neuroblastoma bone invasion prompting this Phase I trial of zoledronic acid with cyclophosphamide in children with neuroblastoma and bone metastases. The prim...
Bisphosphonates have played an important role in the treatment of breast cancer, mainly in patients with bone metastasis, by reducing the risk of fracture, spinal cord compression, and hypercalcemia. Zoledronic acid, the most frequently used intravenous agent, has been traditionally administered on a monthly dosing schedule. Preclinical studies have demonstrated that zoledronic acid can inhibit...
BACKGROUND Bone metastases are a common cause of morbidity in patients with prostate carcinoma. We studied the effect of a new bisphosphonate, zoledronic acid, which blocks bone destruction, on skeletal complications in prostate cancer patients with bone metastases. METHODS Patients with hormone-refractory prostate cancer and a history of bone metastases were randomly assigned to a double-bli...
INTRODUCTION Zoledronic acid is a highly effective treatment in Paget's disease for persistent bone pain and prevention of further progression of the disease. The commonest electrolyte abnormality is hypocalcemia. To the best of our knowledge this is the first case of hyperkalemia secondary to zoledronic acid to be published in the world literature. The commonest arrhythmia related to zoledroni...
Metastasis to the bone is seen in 56% of patients with neuroblastoma and contributes to morbidity and mortality. Using a murine model of bone invasion, we have reported previously that neuroblastoma cells invade the bone by activating osteoclasts. Here, we investigated the antitumoral and antiosteolytic activities of zoledronic acid, a bisphosphonate inhibitor of osteoclasts, in combination wit...
BACKGROUND Metastatic bone disease is a common problem in patients with advanced cancer causing significant morbidity and poor quality of life. Effective and less toxic treatments, like bisphophonates, can reduce morbidity in such cases. OBJECTIVES The objectives of this study were to determine whether Zoledronic acid was administered in accordance with current recommendations for its prescri...
BACKGROUND Zoledronic acid is widely used as adjuvant chemotherapy for the treatment of breast cancer. However, previous trials reported inconsistent findings regarding their clinical efficacy and safety. We carried out a comprehensive systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the effects of zoledronic acid on disease-free survival (DFS), overall survival (OS), and drug-related toxicities...
BACKGROUND The large majority of patients with multiple myeloma develop bone lesions and typically receive bisphosphonates to maintain bone health and prevent/delay skeletal-related events. Recent clinical data show that the newer-generation bisphosphonate, zoledronic acid, may confer a survival benefit when combined with antimyeloma therapy. However, clinical data describing the combination of...
Giant cell tumor of bone is a locally aggressive tumor with a high local recurrence rate. Several adjuvant therapies have been employed to reduce the recurrence rate, but their effectiveness remains controversial. The authors attempted local administration of zoledronic acid, a nitrogen-containing bisphosphonate that strongly inhibits bone resorption, as an adjuvant treatment for histologically...
