Prevalence of osteoporosis during long-term androgen deprivation therapy in patients with prostate cancer.

TLDR
The prevalence of osteoporosis seemed high in hormone-naive patients with prostate cancer, and it increased to more than 80% after 10 years ofADT, and clinicians should be aware of the impact of ADT on BMD to prevent bone mass loss.

Review of major adverse effects of androgen-deprivation therapy in men with prostate cancer.

TL;DR: ADT was associated with an increased risk of skeletal fracture, incident diabetes, and cardiovascular‐related mortality, although the absolute risk of these events was low.

Cancer treatment-induced bone loss in breast and prostate cancer.

TL;DR: Adjuvant endocrine therapy with an AI or androgen deprivation can be considered a risk factor for the development of osteopenia, osteoporosis, and bone fracture, which can be mitigated by appropriate bisphosphonate therapy.

Role of Androgen Deprivation Therapy for Node-Positive Prostate Cancer

TL;DR: Deferring immediate ADT in men with positive lymph nodes after RP may not significantly compromise survival, and these results should be validated in a prospective fashion in a similar patient population.

Risk of Fracture after Androgen Deprivation for Prostate Cancer

TL;DR: Androgen-deprivation therapy for prostate cancer increases the risk of fracture and there was a statistically significant relation between the number of doses of gonadotropin-releasing hormone received during the 12 months after diagnosis and the subsequent risk of fractures.

Osteoporosis in Men

TL;DR: Treatment of osteoporosis in men consists both of nonpharmacological (lifestyle factors, calcium and vitamin D supplementation) and pharmacological approaches, with efficacy similar to that seen in women.

Randomized controlled trial of zoledronic acid to prevent bone loss in men receiving androgen deprivation therapy for nonmetastatic prostate cancer.

TL;DR: In this paper, a multicenter double-blind, randomized, placebo controlled clinical trial was performed to assess the effect of zoledronic acid, a potent new bisphosphonate, on bone mineral density during androgen deprivation therapy for nonmetastatic prostate cancer.
