【Abstract】Objective To introduce three methods of creating the animal model of bone metastasis from breast cancer and the advances in the application of these models. Methods The related literatures were collected and reviewed.Results In summary, breast cancer cells injected through left ventricles was commonly used. Breast cancer cells injected into medullary cavity of shaft of femur was simple and effective, but it was very different from the real condition of bone metastasis of patients. The development of animal model created by surgical orthotopic implantation gives the researchs an ideal instrument similar with the condition of patients to research the mechanism of bone metastasis and the treatment. Conclusion Each animal model of bone metastasis from breast cancer has itself usefulness. Our destination is to create the real model of bone metastasis from breast cancer that is very similar with the patients.
ObjectiveTo identify the risk factors of bone metastasis in breast cancer and construct a predictive model. MethodsThe data of breast cancer patients met inclusion and exclusion criteria from 2010 to 2015 were obtained from the SEER*Stat database. Additionally, the data of breast cancer patients diagnosed with distant metastasis in the Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University from 2021 to 2023 were collected. The patients from the SEER database were randomly divided into training (70%) and validation (30%) sets using R software, and the breast cancer patients from the Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University were included in the validation set. The univariate and multivariate logistic regressions were used to identify risk factors of breast cancer bone metastasis. A nomogram predictive model was then constructed based on these factors. The predictive effect of the nomogram was evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), calibration curve, and decision curve analysis. ResultsThe study included 8 637 breast cancer patients, with 5 998 in the training set and 2 639 (including 68 patients in the Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University) in the validation set. The statistical differences in the race and N stage were observed between the training and validation sets (P<0.05). The multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that being of white race, having a low histological grade (Ⅰ–Ⅱ), positive estrogen and progesterone receptors status, negative human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 status, and non-undergoing surgery for the primary breast cancer site increased the risk of breast cancer bone metastasis (P<0.05). The nomogram based on these risk factors showed that the AUC (95% CI) of the training and validation sets was 0.676 (0.533, 0.744) and 0.690 (0.549, 0.739), respectively. The internal calibration using 1 000 Bootstrap samples demonstrated that the calibration curves for both sets closely approximated the ideal 45-degree reference line. The decision curve analysis indicated a stronger clinical utility within a certain probability threshold range. ConclusionsThis study constructs a nomogram predictive model based on factors related to the risk of breast cancer bone metastasis, which demonstrates a good consistency between actual and predicted outcomes in both training and validation sets. The nomogram shows a stronger clinical utility, but further analysis is needed to understand the reasons of the lower differentiation of nomogram in both sets.
Objective To assess the diagnostic value of MRI and Bone Scan (BS) for osseous metastases in patients with breast cancer. Methods The trials were searched from PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, CBM, CNKI and VIP; the Criteria for inclusion and exclusion were based on the standard for diagnosis tests. Meta-Disc software (Version 1.4) was used for data analysis; and the area under curve (AUC) of SROC was calculated. Results A total of 5 researches involving 329 patients were included. The sensitivity of MRI and BS were 0.99 (0.97, 1.00) and 0.93 (0.88, 0.97) respectively; the specificity for MRI and BS were 0.99 (0.95, 1.00) and 0.86 (0.79, 0.92) respectively; and the AUC of SROC curve for MRI and BS were 0.993 6 and 0.967 5 respectively. Conclusion MRI can be regarded as an effective and feasible method for osseous metastases in breast cancer.
Objective To systemically review the efficacy and safety of strontium chloride for bone metastases from prostate cancer. Methods PubMed, The Cochrane Library, EMbase, VIP, CBM, CNKI and WanFang Data databases were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about strontium chloride for bone metastases from prostate cancer from inception to November 2016. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies, then, meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.3 software. Results A total of 7 RCTs involving 1 532 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that strontium chloride was superior to placebo in the rate of pain relief (RR=1.79, 95%CI 1.35 to 2.37, P<0.000 1), but more likely to cause slight leucopenia (Peto OR=5.02, 95%CI 1.49 to 16.95,P=0.009). However, no significant difference was found in overall survival time between two groups (RR=0.87, 95%CI 0.58 to 1.30, P=0.49). In addition, strontium chloride was superior to radiotherapy in rate of bone pain relief (RR=1.28, 95%CI 1.12 to 1.47, P=0.0004), but it would cause thrombocy (Peto OR=2.61, 95%CI 1.04 to 6.57, P=0.04). Conclusion Current evidence shows that the strontium chloride is superior to placebo in the rate of pain relief, but it will cause slight leucopenia. The strontium chloride is superior to radiotherapy in rate of bone pain relief. Due to limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high quality studies are needed to verify the above conclusion.
ObjectiveTo discuss related clinical research progress of bone metastasis of breast cancer. MethodThe literatures about bone metastases of breast cancer were researched and reviewed. ResultsAlthough there were so many related researches at home and abroad for bone metastasis of breast cancer,but the specific mechanism was still not fully elucidated.At present,the diagnostic method of bone metastasis of breast cancer included X-ray examination,bone scanning,computer tomography,magnetic resonance imaging,positron tomography,positron emission computed tomography,pathology biopsy,and detection of serum markers.In clinical treatment,the treatment consisted of systemic therapy and local therapy,but there was no uniform standard. ConclusionFor high incidence and serious influence on quality of life,bone metastasis of breast cancer needs to be studied further.

Methods The results of bone scintigraphy, serum PSA, ALP and BAP were analyzed retrospectively in 50 PCa patients. Results The positive rate of bone scintigraphy was 70.0% in 50 PCa patients. In 35 patients with PCa bone metastasis, 97.1% of them were PSAgt;20.0 ng/mL, 88.6% were BAPgt;20.1 μg/L, and 94.3% were ALPgt;130.0 μg/L. The serum levels of PSA, ALP and BAP were increased step by step along with the advancement of bone metastatic grading from M0 to M3. They were significantly positively correlated. Conclusion Radionuclide bone scintigraphy is a major method in the diagnosis of bone metastasis in PCa patients currently. PSA, ALP and BAP are also important auxiliary diagnostic markers. Patients with the level of PSAgt;20.0 ng/mL should take a routine whole-body examination of bone scintigraphy.
