At first diagnosis, identification of bone metastases is essential to define the treatment strategy Localised Advanced Metastatic • Metastatic disease is treated by systemic therapy • Underdetection of M+ will • Expose patient to unjustified side-effects • Deprive patients from adapted systemic therapy • Localized and locally advanced disease are best treated by local therapies (surgery/RT) ± adjuvant therapy
Diagnosis - Imaging • Plain radiography • Bone scintigraphy • SPECT • PET • MRI
Prostate cancer is one of the most “osteophylic” cancers • Present at diagnosis in 5-25% of the patients in countries where PSA is used routinely • 1st cause of morbidity and mortality • > 90% osteoblastic • Most are axial
Systemic progression of Pca occurs first in bone in a majority of patients. Nelson et al. Results of a phase III randomized controlled trial of the safety and efficacy of atrasentan in men with non-metastatic hormone-refractory prostate cancer (HRPC). Journal of Clinical Oncology, 25 (18S), 2007: A5018
What is the problem in imaging? Tc-99m bone scan • Bone metastases are routinely diagnosed and followed-up by Tc-99m bone scan. • Tc-99 oxidronate is a marker of osteoblastic activity, not a marker of bone invasion. • Frequently requires X-Rays, CT or MRI to clarify inconsistent reading • There is a delay between bone involvement and TC-99m conversion

What treatment options are available? • Bisphosphonates • Inhibit recruitment/differentiation of osteoclast precursors and attachment/survival of mature osteoclasts1,2 • Standard of care for prevention of SREs in men with PCa and bone metastases before denosumab approval2 • SERMs • Inhibit osteoclast-mediated bone resorption3 • RANKL inhibitors • Inhibits the action of RANKL – the key driver in osteoclast formation, function and survival4 • Denosumab is the only approved treatment for ADT-related bone loss5,6 RANKL, receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand; SERM, selective oestrogen receptor modulatorSRE, skeletal-related event1.

Therapeutic area is characterized by an exciting portfolio in bone targeted therapies • Bisphosphonates • Zoledronate • Clodronate • Ibandronate • Rank-L inhibitor • Denosumab • Endothelin R inhibitor • Atrasentan • ZD4054

Practical recommendations ̶ Osteoporosis Screening • BMD testing for all men on ADT • Test at baseline, after 1 year of ADT, then every 2 years Treatment • Supplemental calcium (≥1,200 mg daily) and vitamin D (800–1,000 IU daily) for all • Drug therapy if age ≥50 and any of: • Personal history of hip or vertebral fracture, OR • T-score ≤−2.5 at the femoral neck or spine, OR • WHO algorithm: • 10-year probability of a hip fracture ≥3% OR • 10-year probability of a major osteoporosis fracture ≥20% Saylor et al J Gen Intern Med 24(Suppl 2):S389–94, 2009
