osteolytic bone metastases of solid tumors
"I have breast cancer with metastasis to the bone. Prior to taking Denosumab, I was receiving Zometa, {approximately 2 years on monthly basis}. One positive element that this is being given sub-cut, saving my veins, also it is not so hard on my kidneys. I do experience itching and back pain, but this only lasts about 1 week after the sub-cut. I have been receiving the injections approxmately 6 months, every month. I also take Aromasin and was diagnosed in April of 2007, my tumor marker is low at 22, remains at that number after making the switch from Zometa to Denosumab ."
