| Abstract | Background Little is known on how denosumab reduces skeletal-related events (SREs) by bone metastases from solid tumors. We sought to evaluate the effect of denosumab administration in patients with bone metastases from solid tumors. Methods Data of patients treated with denosumab were collected from electronic medical charts (n = 496). Eligible participants in this study were adult patients (age ≥ 18 years) with metastatic bone lesions from solid tumors treated with denosumab. SREs, surgical interventions, the spinal instability neoplastic score (SINS) for spinal region, and Mirels’ score for the appendicular region were evaluated. To assess whether denosumab could prevent SREs and associated surgery, the SINS and Mirels’ score were compared between patients with and without SREs. Results A total of 247 patients (median age, 65.5 years old; median follow-up period, 13 months) treated with denosumab for metastatic bone lesions from solid tumors were enrolled in this study. SREs occurred in 19 patients (7.7%). SREs occurred in 2 patients (0.8%) who took denosumab administration before SREs. Surgical interventions were undertaken in 14 patients (5.7%) (spinal and intradural lesions in five patients and appendicular lesions in nine patients). The mean SINS of patients without SREs compared to those with SREs were 7.5 points and 10.2 points, respectively. The mean Mirels’ scores of non-SREs patients and those with SREs were 8.07 points and 10.7 points, respectively. Patients with SREs had significantly higher Mirels’ score than non-SREs patients (p < 0.01). Patients with SREs had higher SINS than non-SREs patients (p = 0.09). Conclusions SREs occurred in patients with higher SINS or Mirels’ scores. Two patients suffered from SREs though they took denosumab administration before SREs. Appropriate management of denosumab for patients with bone metastasis is significant. Surgical interventions may be needed for patients who with higher SINS or Mirel’s scores. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
