OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to assess the usefulness of (153)samarium-ethylene-diamino-tetramethylene phosphonic acid ((153)Sm-EDTMP, a beta and gamma emitter) treatment in the palliation of painful bone metastases from breast cancer.
METHODS
43 women (aged 41-79, mean 60 years) with
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the efficacy of radionuclide palliative therapy (RPT) in women suffering from painful metastatic bone disease (MBD) due to breast cancer (BrCa), and to investigate the possible relationship between the RPT efficacy and cytokines levels.
METHODS
Sixty-three BrCa women patients
BACKGROUND
More than 50% of patients with prostate, breast or lung cancer will develop painful bone metastases. The purpose of treating bone metastases is to relieve pain, reduce the use of steroids and to maintain motion.
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the use of samarium-153-EDTMP (153Sm-EDTMP) for the
Background. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectivness of connected therapy using strontium 89 or Sm153 (osteoblastic component) and bisphosphonate therapy (osteolytic component) in the group of breast cancer patients with multiple osteoblastic-osteolytic (mixt) bone metastases.
A multicentre trial was organized in China as part of an international coordinated research project to study the efficacy and toxicity of single-dose samarium-153 ethylene diamine tetramethylene phosphonate (EDTMP) as a palliative treatment for painful skeletal metastases. One hundred and five
Patients who are candidates for samarium-153 ethylenediaminetetramethylenephosphonic acid (Sm-153 EDTMP) therapy often receive monthly infusions of pamidronate disodium or other bisphosphonates. Because both drugs are related compounds that concentrate in bone, it was advisable to determine whether
Permanent magnets offer a novel solution to the problem of shoulder implant instability when the rotator cuff has been destroyed. We report a case of their use in a 66-year-old patient with a large proximal humerol breast cancer metastasis. Humerol resection was below the deltoid insertion. The
OBJECTIVE
The surface bone-seeking radiopharmaceuticals rhenium-188-HEDP (188Re-HEDP) and samarium-153-EDTMP (153Sm-EDTMP) were investigated to determine the efficacy and toxicity in pain palliation in bone metastases.
METHODS
The effect of treatment with 188Re-HEDP and 153Sm-EDTMP on pain symptoms,
The skeleton is a potential metastatic target of many malignant tumors. Up to 85% of prostate and breast cancer patients may develop bone metastases causing severe pain syndromes in many of them. In patients suffering from multilocular, mainly osteoblastic lesions and pain syndrome, radionuclide
Beta-emitting, bone-seeking radiopharmaceuticals, administered systemically, represent a good alternative or adjuvant to external beam radiotherapy for palliation of painful osteoblastic bone metastases. The most frequently used radiopharmaceutical for this purpose is strontium 89, followed by
Metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) refers to the disease state in which metastatic prostate cancer fails to respond to androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). This can be manifest as a rising PSA, increase in radiographically measurable disease, or progression of clinical disease.
Skeletal metastases occur in many patients with different kinds of malignant tumors, especially in advance stage of breast cancer (in 47%-85% of patients), prostate cancer (33-85%), and lung cancer (32%-60%). The management of painful skeletal metastases is complicated and should be carried out by a
Preclinical studies suggest that 18F-2-deoxy-2-fluoro-D-glucose (18F-FDG) kills breast cancer cells without significant marrow toxicity or parenchymal toxicity. Radiation dose calculations estimated from fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography images in women with metastatic disease indicate
Breast cancer patients with bone metastases often suffer from cancer pain. In general, cancer pain treatment is far from being optimal for many patients. To date, morphine remains the gold standard as first-line therapy, but other pure μ agonists such as hydromorphone, fentanyl, or oxycodone can be
