OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the role of strontium ranelate in the management of osteoporosis.
METHODS
A MEDLINE (January 1966 to May 2007) search using the terms osteoporosis, strontium ranelate, bonemineral density, and fractures.
METHODS
All English-language articles identified from the data sources
This is a review of the pharmacology of strontium ranelate (Protelos, Protos, Protaxos, Bivalos, Osseor), and its efficacy and tolerability in the treatment of patients with postmenopausal osteoporosis. Strontium ranelate is a divalent strontium salt of ranelic acid that is capable of increasing
More than two-thirds of the patients with osseous metastases experience debilitating bone pain, requiring some form of pain relief. Analgesics are limited in their efficacy. Palliative application of hemi-body external beam radiation therapy in the treatment of multiple osseous metastases also is
The palliation of bone pain is a common clinical problem once metastatic prostate cancer has escaped from hormonal control. This retrospective study compares the results of treatment using hemibody irradiation (HBI) at the Royal Marsden Hospital (27 cases) with isotope therapy using the bone-seeking
Strontium ranelate is a new orally administered agent for the treatment of women with postmenopausal osteoporosis that reduces the risk of vertebral and hip fractures. Evidence for the safety and efficacy of strontium ranelate comes from two large multinational trials, the SOTI (Spinal Osteoporosis
A 75-year-old woman was diagnosed with esophageal cancer with difficulty in swallowing. She had a past history of rheumatoid arthritis, scleroderma, interstitial pneumonia, angina pectoris (with coronary artery bypass surgery) and arrhythmia (with pacemaker implantation). She refused surgery, and
The phase II clinical trial of a strontium (89Sr) chloride agent (SMS. 2P) was performed in 9 patients with painful bone metastases secondary to prostate cancer. After an intravenous administration, 89Sr circulated in the plasma and was rapidly cleared. Urinary excretion varied widely among the
The phase III clinical trial of strontium-89 chloride agent (SMS.2P) was performed in 90 patients with painful bone metastases secondary to prostate (53), breast (18) and other types of cancer (19). Some patients experienced a transient increase in pain or nausea and vomiting. However both symptoms
Strontium ranelate is a novel therapy for the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis with actions to reduce bone resorption and increase bone formation. In vitro, strontium ranelate has anabolic and antiresorptive activity, increasing collagen and non-collagen protein synthesis, enhancing
This is a review of the pharmacology of strontium ranelate (Protelos, Protos, Protaxos, Bivalos, Osseor), and its efficacy and tolerability in the treatment of patients with postmenopausal osteoporosis. Strontium ranelate is a divalent strontium salt of ranelic acid that is capable of increasing
A 46-year-old woman underwent mastectomy for right inflammatory breast cancer.Three years later, she was diagnosed with multiple bone metastases and was treated with systemic chemotherapy and zoledronic acid.Six years after the mastectomy, she complained of severe sacral pain, and 40 Gy external
High-energy ionizing radiation is harmful. Low-level exposure sources include background, occupational, and medical diagnostics. Radiation disaster incidents include radioactive substance accidents and nuclear power plant accidents. Terrorism and international conflict could trigger intentional
Radiation is an effective modality for palliation of osseous metastases. In patients with a limited number of lesions, local external beam irradiation is the most expedient method of delivering radiation therapy. Complete or partial relief of pain will occur in 80-90% of patients. When metastases
Because no comparative studies exist, no clear pronouncements can be made about the potential differences in effectiveness and safety between PTH 1-34 and PTH 1-84. As regards the efficacy, a convincing reduction of vertebral fractures was shown in both cases [Neer, R.M., Arnaud, C.D., Zanchetta,
The pharmacological management of disease should involve consideration of the balance between the beneficial effects of treatment on outcome and the probability of adverse effects. The aim of this review is to explore the risk of adverse drug reactions and drug-drug interactions with treatments for
