About CRPC and Bone Metastases

Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among men in the United States (other than skin cancer).(1) Approximately 16% of prostate cancer cases are considered regional or distant, which means that the cancer has spread beyond the prostate to nearby or distant areas of the body (metastasis).(2)

A majority of men with CRPC have radiological evidence of bone metastases.(3)  Bone metastases secondary to prostate cancer typically target the lumbar spine, vertebrae and pelvis.(4)  In fact, bone metastases are the main cause of morbidity and death in patients with CRPC.(5)
