Overview

Clinical trial evaluates lasofoxifene's effectiveness in preserving bone health and reducing metastasis in breast cancer patients, suggesting new treatment pathways.

Key Points

  • To investigate lasofoxifene's bone-protective properties and anti-tumor effects in estrogen receptor positive breast cancer.
  • Utilized animal models for ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis treatment with lasofoxifene or standard therapies.
  • Analyzed femurs via histology and micro-CT histomorphometry.
  • Evaluated anti-tumor effects in Patient-Derived Xenograft models of ER+ breast cancer.
  • Conducted drug synergy studies with 555 oncology drugs to identify effective combinations.
  • Lasofoxifene protected against hormone withdrawal-induced bone loss.
  • Maintained robust anti-tumor response in both primary and metastatic cancer models.
  • Defined rational drug combinations to enhance lasofoxifene's effectiveness.
