Abstract

Denosumab, 120 mg inj. s.c., significantly contributes to delaying the development of skeletal related events (pathological fracture, spinal cord compression, a condition requiring radiotherapy or surgery to bone) and worsening pain in patients with skeletal metastatic disease. Initial dental care with prophylactic stomatology interventions and proper supplementation of calcium and vitamin D are an integral part and condition for successful treatment with denosumab.
