Brief Summary

Bone metastases are common in patients with advanced lung cancer and can have devastating consequences. Preventing or delaying bone metastases may improve outcomes. Bisphosphonates are inhibitors of osteoclast-mediated bone resorption. The current indications for bisphosphonates include the treatment of metabolic disorders of bone metabolism (e.g., osteoporosis and Paget's disease), the treatment of hypercalcaemia of malignancy (HCM), and the prevention of skeletal-related events(SREs)from malignant bone disease. Clinical trials also confirm that bisphosphonates, and zoledronic acid(ZOL) in particular, can prevent bone loss from cancer treatment.There is also emerging evidence that the benefits of bisphosphonate therapy in the oncology setting are more extensive. This study will evaluate whether the addition of ZOL 4 mg every 3 months for up to 1 years in patients with stage IIIB/IV lung cancer could reduce the rate of bone metastases ,improve progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival(OS), and delay time to bone metastases .

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Percentage of Participants With Bone Metastases at 12 Months

    Percentage of participants developing at least 1 bone metastasis, whether or not symptomatic. Bone scans were scheduled at screening and at 6-monthly intervals after study entry, or when symptoms suggested the presence of bone metastases. Positive bone scans required confirmation by x-ray, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), or computed tomography (CT).

    Months 12

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Progression-Free Survival

    Up to 24 months

  • Percentage of Participants With Overall Survival

    Months 6, 12, 18, and 24 ]

Study Arms (2)

ZOL

EXPERIMENTAL

Zoledronic acid 4 mg intravenous infusion over at least 15 minutes every 3 months for 12 months.

Drug: Zoledronic acid

Control

NO INTERVENTION

No investigational treatment

Interventions

Zoledronic acid 4 mg in 5 mL concentrated solution prepared with 100 mL calcium free infusion solution (0.9 % sodium chloride)

Also known as: Zometa
ZOL
