The present report primarily describes protective effects of a long-term prophylactic treatment with 3-amino-1-hydroxypropane-1,1-bisphosphonic acid (APD) on the development of tumor-induced osteolytic bone destructions. Pretreatment with daily intravenous doses of APD 9.5 mg/kg for 1 week resulted in a significant reduction of Walker carcinosarcoma 256-induced bone destruction, when Walker cells were transplanted intraosseously (2 x 10(6) tumor cells/rat) 7 weeks later. Shorter pretreatment periods (4, 2 or 1 week prior to tumor inocculation) resulted in a nearly total inhibition of bone destruction as well as tumor-induced hypercalcemia. Tumor growth itself was not inhibited by APD pretreatment. Histological and microradiographical findings are reported. Consistent to our experiments and with regard to new immunocytological methods to detect single metastatic tumor cells in the bone marrow, potential risk groups may be defined which may profit from the prophylactic APD treatment to inhibit tumor-induced bone destructions.
