Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To explore the effects of alendronate sodium on bone mineral density (BMD) and bone marker in prostate cancer elderly patients after medical castration therapy. METHODS:In perspective study,84 elderly patients undergoing medical castration therapy were selected and divided into treatment group(45 cases)and control group(39 cases)according to ran-dom number table. Control group received medical castration therapy+Calcium carbonate D3 tablets,1 tablet,po,qn;treatment group was additionally given Alendronate sodium tablets 70 mg,po,once a week,1 week after routine treatment,on the basis of control group. Treatment course of 2 groups lasted for 12 months. The levels of 25-OH-D,testosterone,BMD and bone marker were observed in 2 groups,and the occurrence of ADR was recorded. RESULTS:3 cases of treatment group and 1 case of control group dropped out of the study. Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in above indexes between 2 groups (P>0.05). After treatment,25-OH-D levels of 2 groups were increased slightly,but there was no statistical significance(P>0.05);tes-tosterone level of 2 groups were decreased significantly compared to before treatment,with statistical significance (P<0.05). 12 months after treatment,BMD of lumbar vertebra,collum femoris and hip were increased significantly in treatment group,while those were decreased significantly in control group;there was statistical significance in above indexes between 2 groups(P<0.05). The levels of N-terminal midfragment of osteocalcin,procollagen Ⅰ N-terminal propeptide and β-crosslaps were decreased signifi-cantly in treatment group,while those were increased significantly in control group;there was statistical significance in above in-dexes between 2 groups (P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR between 2 groups(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Alendronate sodium can prevent bone loss and reduce the rate of bone turnover in elderly patients with prostate cancer receiving medical castration therapy.
