Bone metastases is a serious complication of patients with tumor. It is associated with substantial morbidity, including bone pain, pathological fracture,neurological deficit and (or) hypercalcemia. Thus, the management of bone metastasis is a clinically significant issue. Bisphosphonates have now become a part of standard therapy to treat and prevent skeletal-related events (SRE), it could inhibit osteoclast-mediated bone resorption and demonstrate antitumor activity in preclinical models. Bisphosphonates are the most effective agent for treating and (or) preventing complications of bone metastasis, reducing the incidence of skeletal-related events, and improving quality of life in patients with bone metastasis.
