Abstract
Cancer therapy-induced bone loss (CTIBL), occurring especially in hormone-treated breast and prostate cancer patients, is a noteworthy long-term consequence of cancer treatments. Because of its negative impact on the quality life of cancer survivors, it deserves much attention. We here summarize the pathophysiology of CTIBL in breast and prostate cancer, its clinical presentation, management, and treatment.
期刊介绍:
A series of integrated overviews on cutting-edge topics
New sophisticated technologies and methodological approaches in diagnostics and therapeutics have led to significant improvements in identifying and characterizing an increasing number of medical conditions, which is particularly true for all aspects of endocrine and metabolic dysfunctions. Novel insights in endocrine physiology and pathophysiology allow for new perspectives in clinical management and thus lead to the development of molecular, personalized treatments. In view of this, the active interplay between basic scientists and clinicians has become fundamental, both to provide patients with the most appropriate care and to advance future research.
