Official title
The Effect of Bisphosphonate on Bone Mass and Bone Turnover in Elderly, Postmenopausal Women With Breast Cancer Following Initiation of Aromatase Inhibitor Therapy
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Elderly, postmenopausal women with breast cancer on aromatase inhibitors are at increased risk of developing bone loss and osteoporosis. We postulate that in elderly, osteopenic postmenopausal women who are on aromatase inhibitor therapy, bisphosphonate therapy will (1) prevent bone loss at clinically relevant sites, such as the spine and hip and (2) decrease bone turnover.
