  2. Bone metastasis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bone_metastasis

    Bone metastasis, or osseous metastatic disease, is a category of cancer metastases that result from primary tumor invasions into bones. Bone-originating primary tumors such as osteosarcoma, chondrosarcoma, and Ewing sarcoma are rare; the most common bone tumor is a metastasis. [1] Bone metastases can be classified as osteolytic, osteoblastic ...

  3. Prostate cancer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prostate_cancer

    Other bone modifying agents like zoledronic acid and denosumab can reduce prostate cancer bone pain, even though they have little effect on tumor size. [69] Metastases compress the spinal cord in up to 12% of those with metastatic prostate cancer causing pain, weakness, numbness, and paralysis.

  4. LNCaP - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LNCaP

    It is well established that human PCa bone metastasis form osteoblastic lesions rather than osteolytic lesions seen in other cancers like breast cancer. [4] [5] Similarly, PC-3 and DU145 cells form osteolytic tumors. To develop an AI-PCa cell model that more closely mimics clinical disease, LNCaP sublines have been generated to provide the most ...

  5. Bone tumor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bone_tumor

    A bone tumor is an abnormal growth of tissue in bone, traditionally classified as noncancerous (benign) or cancerous (malignant). [1] [4] Cancerous bone tumors usually originate from a cancer in another part of the body such as from lung, breast, thyroid, kidney and prostate. [1] There may be a lump, pain, or neurological signs from pressure. [1]

  6. PC3 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PC3

    The PC3 cell line was established in 1979 from bone metastasis of grade IV of prostate cancer in a 62-year-old Caucasian male. [3] These cells do not respond to androgens, glucocorticoids or fibroblast growth factors, [4] but results suggest that the cells are influenced by epidermal growth factors. [5]

  7. Metastasis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metastasis

    The tumor in the lung is then called metastatic breast cancer, not lung cancer. Metastasis is a key element in cancer staging systems such as the TNM staging system, where it represents the "M". In overall stage grouping, metastasis places a cancer in Stage IV. The possibilities of curative treatment are greatly reduced, or often entirely ...

  8. Management of prostate cancer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Management_of_prostate_cancer

    For men with prostate cancer and bone metastases zoledronic acid (a bisphosphonate) and denosumab (a RANK-ligand-inhibitor) appear to be the most effective in preventing skeletal complications. [85] However these agents also seem to cause more frequent and severe adverse events, including kidney failure for treatment with zoledronic acid and ...

  9. Active surveillance of prostate cancer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_surveillance_of...

    The Prostate Cancer Intervention versus Observation Trial (PIVOT) randomized 731 men diagnosed with localized prostate cancer to radical prostatectomy or observation (mean age 67 years; median PSA 7.8 ng/ml). [10] In the observation group, bone metastases and prostate cancer death occurred in 10.6% and 8.4%, respectively through 12 years. [10]
