In this online, self-learning activity:
Each year, over 268,000 cases of prostate cancer are diagnosed. Although early prostate cancer may be cured with surgery or radiation therapy, more than 50% of men will experience recurrence after definitive treatment. New treatment options for advanced prostate cancer have further improved survival and increased the number of patients living with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). But despite the established improvements in survival, a cornerstone of treatment, androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), has been associated with well-characterized negative effects on bone health like skeletal-related events (SREs) and bone metastases. These complications the primary drivers of morbidity and mortality among people with CRPC. Maintaining bone health in patients with CRPC requires routine monitoring and proactive management. Bone mineral density (BMD) loss places men with CRPC at elevated risk for osteoporosis and future fractures.
The following healthcare professionals: Urologists, medical and radiation oncologists, primary care physicians, nuclear medicine specialists, radiologists, and endocrinologists; physician assistants, nurse practitioners, and pharmacists who treat prostate cancer; and any other healthcare professionals who commonly care for patients with prostate cancer.
