Effect of ADT and ARPI on Bone Loss of Patients with Prostate Cancer
Sponsor: The First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University
Summary
This study aims to assess the impact of Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT) and Androgen Receptor Pathway Inhibitors (ARPI) on bone quality in patients with prostate cancer. Patients undergoing ADT for prostate cancer often experience adverse effects such as decreased bone density and increased fracture risk. While ARPIs are emerging as novel therapeutic agents, their effects on bone quality remain unclear. This study will compare patients receiving combined ADT and ARPI therapy with those receiving ADT alone, evaluating changes in bone density, bone microarchitecture, and bone metabolic markers. The findings will help optimize treatment strategies for prostate cancer patients, reduce the risk of osteoporosis, and improve overall quality of life.
