The influence of chemotherapy on bone mineral density, quantitative ultrasonometry and bone turnover in pre-menopausal women with breast cancer
European Journal of Cancer, 10/23/09
Hadji P et al. – Results confirm A/C’s deleterious influence on bone health in pre-menopausal women with BC and established QUS’s utility for monitoring bone effects.
Methods- 106 women (BC=53, controls=53)
- BMD (spine and hip), QUS (calcaneus and phalanges) and bone marker levels measured at baseline, 6 and 12months
- Correlations between parameters determined by Spearman’s rho
- All BC patients became amenorrhoeic after chemotherapy and remained so for duration of treatment
- BC patients had significant bone loss at all sites and significant increases in bone turnover
- Significant correlations between BMD, QUS and bone markers
