What are the Benefits of Denosumab in Cancer Patients?
Denosumab offers several benefits for cancer patients:
Reduction of Skeletal-Related Events (SREs): Clinical trials have shown that denosumab is effective in delaying or preventing SREs, such as fractures, spinal cord compression, and the need for radiation or surgery to bone. Improved Quality of Life: By preventing bone complications, denosumab helps maintain patients' mobility and reduces pain, thereby improving their overall quality of life. Alternative to Bisphosphonates: In patients who are intolerant to or have contraindications for bisphosphonates, denosumab provides an alternative therapeutic option.
