ABSTRACT
Prostate cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer among elderly men in the United States. Skeletal architecture is affected by metastasis and androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), which is considered a gold standard treatment in prostate cancer. Osteoporosis and skeletal effects are reported among most patients on ADT. To counter these effects and to reduce bone turnover, antiresorptive drugs such as bisphosphonates and denosumab are commonly prescribed in prostate cancer. These drugs increase the prevalence of osteonecrosis of the jaw in a subset of patients. The future should hold promise for new drugs that could have a positive impact on bone metabolism without jeopardizing bone integrity.
