Denosumab as treatment of central giant cell granuloma of the jaws. a scoping review
This study aimed to perform a scoping review of CGCG treated with Denosumab. The research question was: What is Denosumab ’s effectiveness in treating CGCG of the jaws? Studies that used Denosumab as a treatment for CGCGs in the jaws were selected following PRISMA-ScR guidelines, using Pubmed/Medline, Scopus, and Springer Link databases, among others. Demographics, clinical information, dosing, efficacy, adverse drug reactions (ADRs), and imaging tests used to assess the evolution of the lesions were extracted. Twenty-one studies were selected. Sixty patients with a mean age of 23.2 years were treated with Denosumab, 42...

Real-World Evaluation of Primary Versus Secondary Prevention of Skeletal-Related Events in Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer
CONCLUSION: A majority of patients with mCRPC never receive BTAs prior to first SRE, despite universal access and availability of these agents in Ontario. These results highlight an opportunity to improve outcomes by emphasizing early introduction of BTA in patients with mCRPC being started on systemic therapy.PMID:38527096 | DOI:10.1093/oncolo/oyae036 (Source: The Oncologist)

Recurrent severe hypocalcemia following chemotherapy regimen changes in advanced breast cancer: two case reports
ConclusionsWe observed two cases of recurrent severe hypocalcemia in patients with advanced breast cancer and bone metastases after modifications to their therapy regimens. These cases differed from the typical hypocalcemia induced by bone-modifying agents. It is possible that antitumor drugs affect calcium and bone metabolism associated with bone metastases. While these cases are rare, it is crucial for oncologists to be aware of hypocalcemia not only at the initiation of bone-modifying agents but also throughout the entire antitumor therapy, as hypocalcemia can lead to fatal outcomes.

Exploring epigenetic strategies for the treatment of osteoporosis
Mol Biol Rep. 2024 Mar 8;51(1):398. doi: 10.1007/s11033-024-09353-4.ABSTRACTThe worldwide trend toward an aging population has resulted in a higher incidence of chronic conditions, such as osteoporosis. Osteoporosis, a prevalent skeletal disorder characterized by decreased bone mass and increased fracture risk, encompasses primary and secondary forms, each with distinct etiologies. Mechanistically, osteoporosis involves an imbalance between bone resorption by osteoclasts and bone formation by osteoblasts. Current pharmacological interventions for osteoporosis, such as bisphosphonates, denosumab, and teriparatide, aim to mo...

Cancer treatment-induced bone loss
Korean J Intern Med. 2024 Mar 5. doi: 10.3904/kjim.2023.386. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCancer treatment-induced bone loss (CTBL) is associated with anti-tumor treatments, including endocrine therapies, chemotherapeutic treatments, radiotherapy, glucocorticoids, and tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Osteoporosis, characterized by the loss of bone mass, can increase the risk of fractures, leading to mortality and long-term disability, even after cancer remission. Cancer and osteoporosis have marked clinical and pathogenetic similarities. Both have a multifactorial etiology, affect the geriatric population, and markedly influen...
