Study Summary

Men treated with neoadjuvant luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH)-agonists such as leuprolide and goserelin for prostate cancer will become hypogonadal due to hormonal suppression and demonstrate increased bone turnover and consequent bone loss at the hip and spine. This bone loss can be prevented by treatment with 35 mg/week of risedronate.

Primary Outcome

BMD was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (Lunar DXA-IQ, Madison, WI, USA). The BMD of the femoral neck, total hip, and lumbar spine (L1-L4) was measured. Underlying data are no longer available; reported means have been estimated from the results publication.
