Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Written informed consent must be obtained
* Age \> 18 years
* Histologically confirmed diagnosis of carcinoma of the prostate
* Current (or previous) objective evidence of metastatic disease to the bone
* Currently receiving 1st line hormonal therapy with LHRH agonists or other hormonal treatments
* ECOG performance status of 0, 1, or 2

Exclusion Criteria

* Patients with abnormal renal function as evidenced by either a serum creatinine determination 1.5 x or greater above the upper limit of normal or by a calculated creatinine clearance of 60 ml/minute or less
* Corrected (adjusted for serum albumin) serum calcium concentration \< 8.0 mg/dl (2.00 mmol/L)
* WBC\<3.0x1'000'000'000, ANC \< 1500/mm3, Hgb\<8.0 g/dL, platelets \< 75 x 1'000'000'000/L.
* Liver function tests \>2.5 ULN, serum creatinine \>1.5 ULN.
* Patients with another nonmalignant disease which would confound the evaluation of primary endpoints or prevent the patient complying with the protocol.
* Known hypersensitivity to zoledronic acid or other bisphosphonates
* Subjects who, in the opinion of the investigator, are unlikely to cooperate fully during the study
