摘要
Bone metastasis is a common complication of prostate cancer and is associated with significant morbidity for patients. Bone metabolism and prostate cancer metastasis to bone are complex processes. The interactions between host cells and metastatic prostate cancer cells are important components of organ-specific cancer progression. In addition to traditional treatment approaches, targeted therapy is currently becoming more popular. Bone metabolism, metastatic processes of prostate cancer, and the targeting of treatment for advanced disease are discussed here. Copyright © 2007 by Current Medicine Group LLC.
