Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To determine if therapy with Zometa® (zoledronic acid) 4mg will be effective in preventing the occurrence of bone metastases in prostate cancer patients at high risk of developing them. In addition, pain and analgesic scores and overall safety are to be evaluated throughout the study.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a prospective, randomized, stratified open-label (Zometa + hormonal ablation versus hormonal ablation alone) multicenter clinical study evaluating the efficacy of Zometa 4mg given every 3 month as an adjunct to hormonal or surgical castration for prevention of bone metastases in locally advanced, high risk prostate cancer patients, who are hormone-naiv at time of randomization. the primary efficacy variable is the time to occurrence of first bone metastases.
